RESUMO
@#Objective To observe the effect of Kinesio Taping with lattice shapes on pregnancy-related low back pain (PLBP). Methods From March, 2017 to April, 2018, 56 patients with PLBP were randomly divided into the control group (n = 28) and experimental group (n = 28). Both groups received the core stability training, while the experimental group accepted Kinesio Taping with lattice shapes additionally. They were assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Roland-Morris Dysfunction Questionnaire (RMDQ), range of lumbar activity and torso angle before, three days and two weeks after treatment. Results The range of lumbar activity improved significantly in both groups (t > 6.327, P < 0.01) three days after treatment, while the scores of VAS and RMDQ, and the torso angle improved significantly in the experimental group (t > 4.862, P < 0.001). The scores of VAS and RMDQ, the range of lumbar activity, and the torso angle improved significantly in both groups two weeks after treatment (P < 0.001), and improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Kinesio Taping with lattice shapes combined with core stability training can further reduce the lower back pain and improve the function for the PLBP patients.
RESUMO
@# Objective To observe the effects of vestibular function training and proprioception training on vertigo and balance function after postoperative circulatory ischemia under the visual participation. Methods From June, 2016 to May, 2018, 72 patients with posterior circulation ischemic vertigo aged more than 60 were randomly divided into proprioception group (n = 24), vestibular group (n = 24) and comprehensive group (n = 24). All the patients received routine medicine and rehabilitation training. Moreover, the proprioception group accepted proprioception training, the vestibular group accepted vestibular function training, and the comprehensive group accepted both proprioception training and vestibular function training. They were assessed with Dizziness Assessment Rating Scale (DARS), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) before and after four weeks of treatment, while the mean velocity (Vm) of blood flow in the basilar artery was measured with transcranial Doppler, and the stability index (ST) was measured with Tetrax. Results The scores of DARS, DHI and BBS, and Vm and ST improved in all the groups after treatment (t > 57.825, P < 0.001). However, the scores of DHI and BBS, and ST improved more in the comprehensive group than in the proprioception group and the vestibular training group (P < 0.05), Vm and score of DARS improved more in the vestibular group and the comprehensive group than in the proprioception group (P < 0.05). Conclusion With the participation of the vision, vestibular function training combined with proprioception training can further alleviate vertigo caused by postoperative circulatory ischemia, and improve balance and quality of life.
