ABSTRACT

Muitos pacientes sobreviventes da poliomielite apresentam importante comprometimento da função respiratória. A fisioterapia aquática é indicada para esta população, porém, a presença da traqueostomia leva a uma maior dificuldade de tratamento no meio líquido pela dificuldade da manipulação. O objetivo deste trabalho é verificar os benefícios que uma paciente traqueostomizada, com suporte ventilatório não invasivo, pode ter com a abordagem da fisioterapia aquática. A paciente sofreu intervenção de vinte sessões de fisioterapia aquática. Para avaliação foram usadas as Escalas de Fadiga, Dor e Qualidade de vida e analisados os parâmetros: Saturação de Oxigênio (SatO2), Freqüência Cardíaca (FC)e Freqüência Respiratória (FR). Foi constatada melhora na pontuação de todas as escalas de fadiga utilizadas:inicial 55 e final 28, demonstrando ao final do estudo ausência de fadiga Fator esse também verificado na qualidade de vida principalmente na dimensão de vitalidade inicial 29,16 e final 50. A FC, a (excluir) FR e a SatO2 não sofreram alterações significativas, observando dessa maneira a segurança durante o atendimento. No término do tratamento, o quadro álgico cessou nos principais grupos articulares. Os resultados demonstraram que o meio líquido foi favorável para o tratamento dessa paciente, garantindo a segurança, diminuindo a fadiga e a dor, melhorando assim a qualidade de vida.


Survivors of polio exhibit significant impairment of respiratory function. Aquatic physical therapy is recommended for this population, however, the presence of tracheostomy produces greater difficulty in treatment when using water because of the difficulty involved in moving the patient. The aim of this study is to assess the benefits that a tracheostomized patient with non-invasive ventilatory support, may have with an aquatic therapy approach. The patient underwent an intervention/treatment of twenty sessions of aquatic therapy. The fatigue, pain and quality of life scales were used for evaluation and the parameters were analyzed: Oxygen Saturation (SaO2), heart rate (HR), Respiratory Rate (RR). It was a striking improvement in the scores of all scales used for fatigue: initial 55 and final 28, demonstrating an absence of fatigue at the end of the study. This factor was also observed in the quality of life mainly in the initial (29.16) and final (50) periods of vitality. The HR, RR and SaO2 did not change significantly, demonstrating the safety during the treatment. The pain ceased in the major joints at the end of treatment. The results showed that the use of water was favorable for the treatment of the patient, ensuring safety, reducing fatigue and pain, thereby improving the quality of life.

ABSTRACT

A Cinta Abdominal Pneumática (CAP) é um aparelho utilizado no mercado internacional com o objetivo de melhorar a função pulmonar de pacientes com seqüelas de poliomielite, doenças neuromusculares e lesão raquiomedular. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar os parâmetros respiratórios durante o uso da CAP através de um experimento com sete ratos normais. A variação da pressão intrapleural (Ppl), o tempo inspiratório (Ti), o tempo expiratório (Te), o tempo total do ciclo (Ttot), a freqüência respiratória (FR), a relação Ti/Ttot e o produto pressão tempo (PTP) foram mensurados com um transdutor de pressão no espaço pleural dos ratos, sem e com a CAP; a fim de se verificar seus reais efeitos fisiológicos. Os resultados mostraram que a CAP determina variação significativa na pressão pleural (p = 0,0489) o que melhora os volumes pulmonares e conseqüentemente a ventilação. A FR, Ti, Te, Ttot não sofreram alterações significativas. A variação da relação Ti/Ttot e do PTP não foi significativamente diferente, o que é vantajoso, uma vez que refletem aumento do gasto energético da respiração. Observou-se também assincronia durante seu uso, funcionando como estímulo inspiratório e não como auxílio expiratório.


The Abdominal Pneumatic Belt (APB) is a device used in the international market with the objective to improve the pulmonary function of patients with polio sequels, neuromuscular disorders and injury of spinal cord. This research considered an evaluation of the respiratory parameters during the use of the APB through an experiment with seven normal rats. The variation of the pleural pressure (Ppl), the inspiratory time (Ti), the expiratory time (Te), the total time of the cycle (Ttot), the respiratory frequency (FR), the Ti/Ttot relation and the pressure-time product (PTP) had been measure, through a transducer of pressure in the pleural space, without and with such equipment; in order to analyze its real physiological effect. The results had shown that the APB determines significant variation in the pleural pressure (p = 0,0489) what probably determines better pulmonary volumes and consequently better ventilation. The FR, Ti, Te and Ttot had not suffered significant alterations. The variation of the Ti/Ttot relation and the PTP is not significant too, what it would be advantageous, because it reflects increase of energy expense of the breath. It was observed an antagonism during the use, functioning as inspiratory stimulation and not as expiratory aid.

ABSTRACT

Ante la erradicación de la poliomielitis y de la circulación del virus polio salvaje en América y su importante disminución en el mundo los casos de polio paralítica asociada a vacuna (PPAV), aunque poco frecuentes, adquieren gran relevancia. Se presenta dos casos diagnosticados en el Hospital Dr. E. González Cortés, en los años 1992 y 1997. Los grupos de mayor riesgo de PPAV son los receptores de vacuna polio oral, especialmente lactantes después de la primera dosis, en adultos en contacto con receptores de vacuna y personas immunodeficientes. Esto ha llevado a muchos países a modificar su esquema de vacunación, incorporando la vacuna polio inactivada (VPI), que tiene igual efectividad y no encierra el riesgo de PPAV. Se destaca la necesidad de disponer en nuestro país de vacuna VPI para los pacientes inmunodeficientes y sus contactos

ABSTRACT

Immunization status of children and their mothers and reasons for their failure to be immunized were studied. The study lasted for two months, i.e., August and September, 1993 at the Paediatric Outpatient Department of Civil Hospital, Karachi. Three groups of patients were targeted. Six hundred and twenty-four children under 1 year of age, 955 children between the ages of 1 to 5 years and 1579 mothers were registered. These women were questioned regarding their immunization status and that of their children. In the group below 1 year of age, BCG, DPT and polio [3 doses] and measles were given to 75%, 35% and 23% respectively. Tetanus toxoid [2 doses] was given to 47% of their mothers. In the group of children between 1-5 years. BCG, DPT and polio 3 doses and measles were given to 84%, 63% and 58% respectively. Tetanus toxoid [2 doses] were given to 64% of their mothers. The main reasons for not vaccinating were lack of information and lack of motivation

ABSTRACT

Twenty six poliomyelitis patients with genu recurvatum, were treated by supracondylar femoral osteotomy with anterior open wedge and bone grafting from ipsilateral iliac bone, combined with upward and posterior displacement of the muscles attached to the outer table of the iliac bone. The average age was 14.6 years. The average angle of recurvatum before operation was 39 degree. Fifteen of the patients were orthosis dependent. After a follow up period of at least 2 years, 88.4% had regained significant improvement in appearance, walking ability, and orthosis discarded
