Fizjoterapia Polska 2021; 21(1); 178-186

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG079497

Abstract
Introduction. When performed according to the most recent standards, rehabilitation and nebulization enable the prevention of progression of cystic fibrosis.
Aim. The aim of the study was to assess the parents’ knowledge concerning the disease, education of pro-health attitudes, taking care of pulmonary rehabilitation equipment, and following the recommendations on how to perform inhalations correctly.
Materials and methods. Seventy-four parents with at least one child affected by cystic fibrosis participated in a survey, where we applied our own questionnaire.
Results. A majority of the parents claim to possess knowledge about the disease and to be familiar with the specialist terminology; however, a control question does not confirm that. Only 50% of the respondents take advantage of a positive influence of physical effort on the respiratory function, whereas 50% of the children assume incorrect positions during nebulization, and merely half of the parents maintain nebulization equipment in the right way.
Conclusions. Parents still need further education concerning their children’s condition, the principles of their rehabilitation, hygiene, the ways of properly maintaining the equipment, as well as dosing the suitable amount of physical activity on a daily basis.

Sheela Ravinder S., Padmavathi R., Narasimman S., M. Mohan Kumar, K.N.Maruthy – Vitamin D and Physical Activity. Fizjoterapia Polska 2020; 20(2); 126-131

Abstract
Aim. To study the impact of physical activity carried out both outdoor and indoor on vitamin D status based on systematic review of literature from various studies.
Materials & Methods. Systematic literature survey was carried out by searching electronic databases including PUBMED, Cochrane library & Google Scholar and was investigated until March 2018 for all case–control studies evaluating the association between physical activity and vitamin D.
Results. Various studies demonstrated that the study participants who took part in physical activity showed positive correlation with both improved 25(OH) levels and significant improvement in quality of life. Few studies attributed rise in vitamin D levels to physical activity done indoors signifying that levels of vitamin D are not improved by solar exposure alone. Hence, though different studies have revealed clear relationship between physical activity and vitamin D in adults, the outcomes were not uniform.
Conclusion. The current review is a collective narrative of various studies that have been carried out in the past (especially over the last decade) to assess the association between vitamin D status and physical activity. Most studies included in the review indicate clearly that there is an elevation in plasma vitamin D concentration in response to physical activity both outdoors and indoors.

Celina Łupińska

C. Łupińska – Physical activity in hemodialyzed patients of the hospital in Värnamo. Fizjoterapia Polska 2018; 18(2); 12-22

Abstract

Introduction. Patients with kidney failure engage in less physical activity. This leads to reduced muscle strength, exercise tolerance, and hemodynamic activity of the heart and the cardiovascular system. Such patients also experience a decreased sense of well-being. Patients who are qualified for hemodialysis (HD) undergo treatment 3-5 times a week. Due to the lengthy nature of the procedure (each session takes about 3-5 hours), it can be a heavy burden for the patients.
Purpose. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the positive effects of regular physical activity in hemodialyzed patients.
Materials and methods. 23 adult patients (over 18 years old) were included in the study. Two patients did not give their consent to participate, and 8 were excluded due to comorbid conditions (infections, arrhythmia, fistula complications, lower extremity amputation), as they were unable to undergo all of the tests. The remaining 13 patients (57%) were tested for muscle strength, physical fitness, and balance. The tests were conducted before the start of a regular, individual physical training regimen and were administered before / during hemodialysis.
Results. In patients with chronic kidney failure who were undergoing regular hemodialysis at the time of the study, significant improvement in physical fitness (6 patients, 46%), lower extremity muscle strength (8 patients, 61%), upper extremity muscle strength (6 patients, 46%), and balance (4 patients, 31%) was observed after a six-month long physical training regimen, with training sessions of individually adjusted length and intensity conducted 3 times a week.
Conclusion. An improvement in physical fitness, lower and upper extremity muscle strength, and balance was observed in patients with kidney failure, who were treated regularly at the dialysis ward of the hospital in Värnamo (dialyzed at least 3 times a week), and who participated in a regular physical activity training before/during hemodialysis.

Abstract

Physical activity is a key integrating element of a healthy lifestyle. Physical Fitness determines the resourcefulness in various life situations, its high level may facilitate work, broaden the capabilities and contribute to a healthy lifestyle. Studies show that physical therapists are particularly predisposed to promote a healthy lifestyle among the medical patients. On the other hand, due to the nature of their work, they are at risk of muscular and skeletal injuries.
The objective was to assess the Warsaw Medical University (WMU) and the Academy of Physical Education (APE) Physiotherapy Students’ attitude toward physical activity and physical fitness.
Methodology. Examined was a group of 90 students (37 females, 9 males from WMU and 22 females, 22 males from PEA) of the age 22.7 on average ±2.0 years. Prepared questionnaire designed to assess attitudes toward physical activity was used. The level of physical fitness of the investigated students was examined with International Physical Fitness Test.
Results. The number of physical activity hours is significantly lower at the Medical University (1.6 ±1.5) than PE Academy (3.6 ±1.7), p<0,001. Very high (80%) interest in physical activity during leisure time has been demonstrated, with higher tendency among Physiotherapy PEA students than the WMU students (p = 0.07). A significantly lower level of physical fitness among WMU students, as compared to PEA students, was also found.
Conclusions. 1. Very high interest in physical activity during leisure time, in both groups, should be taken advantage of and developed in educational process. 2. Medical University students presented a much lower fitness level than PEA students, which may have resulted from fewer hours of physical activities at the Medical University of Warsaw (WMU). 3. Due to higher expectations in case of physiotherapists, it seems that physical fitness should be one of the recruitment process criteria at Medical University of Warsaw.
