Abstract
Introduction. Football is the most popular sport in Indonesia. In a football match, the game lasts 2 x 45 minutes. However, football players are often injured due to collisions and errors in landing after jumping. Some factors that increase the occurrence of injuries are poor leg muscle power, poor balance, and poor running speed. FIFA created FIFA 11+ as a training program to guard against sports-related injuries to football players. However, although there has been quite a lot of research related to the FIFA 11+ training program in Indonesia, there still needs to be more research on the provision of the FIFA 11+ training program. Purpose. This study aims to determine the effect of the FIFA 11+ training program on body balance, speed, and leg muscle power. Methods. This experimental study has a one-group pretest and posttest design. The research was conducted at the Muhammadiyah University Football Club in Purwokerto, Indonesia. The population sample consists of 42 boys between the ages of 18 and 23. FIFA 11+ practice is provided over 4 weeks (2 sessions in 1 week). The data obtained was then tested for Pearson product-moment correlation and multiple regression correlation tests using the Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) application version 26. Results. The results showed that after the FIFA 11+ training program, there was a significant increase in body balance, lower leg muscle power, and speed. This was proven in the effect test, with SPSS showing results of p < 0.05. Conclusion. Based on the results and discussion above, the FIFA 11+ program significantly increases body balance, leg muscle power, and running speed.

Injuries and diseases of the knee joint – diagnostic evaluation

Jerzy Widuchowski, Wojciech Widuchowski – Injuries and diseases of the knee joint – diagnostic evaluation. Fizjoterapia Polska 2004; 4(4); 297-306

Abstract

In traumatic injuries and diseases of the knee joint establishing a correct diagnosis is a very important part of therapeutic management. In many cases it is not easy. The reason for this is the possibility of simultaneous injury of many different anatomical joint structures, and as a result the occurrence of clinical symptoms that vary in intensity and often overlap. In diagnostic procedures, the most important task is to establish which of the anatomical structures has been damaged as a result of acute or chronic trauma, and how extensive the loss of joint function actually is. Making a correct diagnosis in acute traumatic injuries of the knee should be done as quickly as possible. The present study contains an outline of diagnostic evaluation in traumatic injuries and diseases of the knee joint. Each part of this outline is fully discussed.

M. Konik, I. Kotela, J. Lorkowski, T. Chruściak, E. Sołtan, M. Chruściak, S. Zduński – A Comparative analysis of early results of surgical treatment of Achilles tendon injuries with the minimally invasive and classic methods – physiotherapy options. A Randomized Controlled Trial. Fizjoterapia Polska 2020; 20(5); 182-191

Abstract
Background. The Achilles tendon is the strongest tendon in the human body. Despite the high incidence of injuries and a well-known problem of treating heel tendon injuries, there has been no consensus on the proper treatment, (both surgical and rehabilitation) in professional literature so far. Choosing an operating method that gives “better” treatment results can facilitate the choice of a more effective treatment. It should also be remembered that a properly conducted rehabilitation process is an extremely important element following the surgery.
Aim of the study. The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the surgical treatment of patients with Achilles tendon injuries using the minimally invasive and classic methods.
Material and Methods. The study material included 62 patients treated surgically for Achilles tendon injury in the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of CSK MSW in Warsaw in the years 2011-2016. 31 patients were operated using the minimally invasive method (the study group) and 31 patients using the conventional method (the control group). The research group consisted of 27 men and 4 women. The comparative group consisted of 27 males and 4 females. The following research tools were used to evaluate the treatment results: 1. Author’s questionnaire 2. AOFAS score (American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Score) 3. Measuring instrument for maximum force moments in ankle joint JBA “Staniek” 4. HUR stabilographic platform 5. Ultrasonography.
Results. 4 patients, (12.9%) in the control group re-ruptured the tendon after operative treatment. In the study group, 2 patients (6.5%) experienced a complete heel tendon rupture in the postoperative period. The problem of postoperative wound healing disorders was observed among 2 patients (6.5%) from the study group. In the group treated with the classical technique, 5 (16.1%) patients experienced a delay in the healing of the surgical wound due to bacterial infection. Paresthesia, from the sural nerve was observed in only 1 patient in the MIS (Minimal Invasive Surgery) group. 27 patients (87.1%) returned to their sports activity after percutaneous surgery, and 22 patients (71%) after conventional treatment. On average, patients from both groups needed 6 months to return to sports activities.
Conclusions. 1. The number of renewed ruptures after minimally invasive treatment of a damaged Achilles tendon is low and comparable to that of a group of patients treated with the classic technique. 2. Postoperative wound healing disorders are rare in both groups. 3. Calf nerve injury was reported only in one case, while using a minimally invasive procedure. 4. Patients return to work and sports at the same time after surgery in both groups which is influenced by properly implemented physiotherapy 5. Patients presented a similar balance control on the stabilographic platform in both groups. 6. Similar values of maximum force moments in ankle joint were recorded in both groups. 7. In the ultrasound image, there were no morphological differences in Achilles tendon formation in either study group.

J. Pasek, T. Stołtny, M. Szczęśniak, B. Dugiełło, W. Gąsior, M. Czarnecki, J. Jaczyński, B. Koczy – Algorithm of physiotherapy after traumatic injury of the Achilles tendon. Fizjoterapia Polska 2020; 20(2); 76-87

Abstract

Achilles tendon is the largest and strongest tendon in the human body. Due to its key function in motor skills and the currently observed increase in popularity of various sports disciplines, it is subject to more frequent injuries. This requires the introduction of appropriate therapeutic measures. The main goal of the whole treatment process is to ensure the full recovery of tendon function. In cases of a full tendon ruptures, the treatment of choice is surgery unless it is contraindicated for general medical reasons. In both cases, proper physiotherapy is needed. In the article, the authors present an algorithm for physiotherapy after traumatic injury to the Achilles tendon.

M. Woszczak, K. Syrewicz, M. Kotkowski, M. Kiljański – Mobilisation of proximal radioulnar joint and functioning of the arm after forearm fracture. FP 2015; 15(1); 58-73

Abstract

Research objective. The research aims to evaluate the effect of mobilisation of proximal radioulnar articulation on the hand function after a forearm fracture.
Material and methods. The research involved 60 patients over the age of 50 who were subject to treatment for limitation of hand function resulting from a forearm fracture. The respondents were randomly divided into equal research and control groups and subjected to a series of ten physiotherapy treatments, including low-frequency electromagnetic field therapy, blue filter Sollux lamp and physiotherapy in the form of free active exercises of the elbow, wrist and fingers. The research group also underwent the mobilisation of proximal radioulnar articulation using the Kaltenborn-Evjenth method.
Results. The analysis of the data obtained showed that mobilisation of proximal radioulnar articulation improved the clinical and functional condition of patients after a forearm fracture.
Conclusions. The respondents who went through a rehabilitation program which included mobilisation of proximal radioulnar articulation, assessed their pain level as being lower. They also achieved a wider range of dorsiflexion, palmar flexion, ulnar and radial deviation as well as supination and pronation motion in the radioulnar joint. Additionally, therapy that included the mobilisation resulted in improved strength of cylindrical grip.
