Streszczenie Tło. Choroba zwyrodnieniowa stawów (OA) to przewlekła choroba stawowa o wieloczynnikowej etiologii. Jej patogeneza przyczynia się do degradacji chrząstki stawowej, przebudowy kości okołostawowej i zwłóknienia torebki. Leczenie konwencjonalne obejmuje kombinację metod farmakologicznych, niefarmakologicznych oraz interwencji chirurgicznych. Fizjoterapia jest uważana za leczenie pierwszego i drugiego rzutu. Nowe rozwinięcia w terapii manualnej wykazały obiecujące poprawy w zakresie bólu i funkcji fizycznej. Cel badania. Zbadanie występowania choroby zwyrodnieniowej kolan w Klinice Ambulatoryjnej Wydziału Fizjoterapii Uniwersytetu Al-Neelain. Materiały i metody. To pojedynczo ślepe, randomizowane badanie kontrolowane przeprowadzone w klinice ambulatoryjnej Wydziału Fizjoterapii Uniwersytetu Al-Neelain. Do badania rekrutowano trzydzieści osób, które podzielono losowo na dwie grupy; 15 (eksperymentalna), znana jako grupa A, otrzymała technikę rozciągania torebkowego, i 15 (kontrolna), znana jako grupa B, nie otrzymała żadnego leczenia. Obydwie grupy oceniano na początku i po dwóch tygodniach pod kątem zakresu ruchu (ROM) przy użyciu elektrogoniometru oraz wydajności funkcjonalnej według skali WOMAC. Dane analizowano przy użyciu Statystycznego Pakietu do Nauk Społecznych (SPSS). Wyniki. Grupa A, która otrzymała rozciąganie torebkowe, wykazała statystycznie istotną poprawę w zakresie ROM kolana (zarówno zgięcie jak i wyprost; aktywne i bierne) w porównaniu z brakiem leczenia. Pod względem wydajności funkcjonalnej; wyniki skali WOMAC wykazały bardzo istotne statystycznie różnice między grupami porównawczymi z wartością P = 0,00003 w grupie A i = 0,28 w grupie B. Wnioski. Badanie potwierdziło, że technika rozciągania torebkowego jest skuteczna w leczeniu i poprawie stanu pacjentów z OA kolana pod względem bólu, ROM i wydajności funkcjonalnej.

Sažetak
Cilj. Prednji bol u koljenu (AKP) jedan je od najčešćih mišićno-koštanih problema kod adolescenata, s godišnjom prevalencijom od 22,7% do 28,9%。Prekomjerna pronacija stopala biomehanički je čimbenik koji povećava rizik od AKP-a. Fizioterapija igra ključnu ulogu u liječenju AKP-a. Cilj ove studije je procijeniti učinkovitost neuromuskularnog treninga i manualne terapije u kombinaciji s pojačanim Low-Dye tapingom za korekciju pronacije stopala u liječenju AKP-a.

Materijali i metode. U prospektivnoj, dvostruko slijepoj randomiziranoj kontroliranoj studiji sudjelovat će 48 ispitanika s bolovima u prednjem dijelu koljena. Sudionici će biti nasumično raspoređeni u omjeru 1:1:1 i tijekom 4 tjedna u bolnici Mediclinic Al Noor proći 12 sesija mobilizacije talonavikularnog zgloba (TJM), manualne terapije i neuromuskularnih vježbi uz primjenu pojačanog Low-Dye tapinga protiv pronacije. Ishodni mjerni pokazatelji uključivat će bol, funkcionalna ograničenja, držanje stopala i dinamički valgus indeks (DVI),procijenjeni prije i nakon intervencije.

Rasprava. Prethodna istraživanja sugeriraju da su manualna terapija i neuromuskularne vježbe s pojačanim Low-Dye tapingom učinkovite metode u liječenju AKP-a. Vjerujemo da će intervencije temeljene na dokazima u ovoj studiji značajno poboljšati bol, funkcionalna ograničenja, držanje stopala i DVI.

Sažetak
Uvod. Neki od faktora u formiranju poremećaja temporomandibularnog zgloba su promjene u središnjem i perifernom živčanom sustavu. U kontekstu stvaranja veza između dva zgloba, važni su fascija i koncept biotenzegracije. Napetost stvorena u tkivu linearno je raspoređena duž cijelog tijela. Stvaranje prekomjerne napetosti unutar jedne strukture može dovesti do stvaranja identične napetosti u udaljenoj strukturi.
Cilj studije. Hipoteza istraživanja bila je da bi ručni tretmani mekog tkiva temporomandibularnog zgloba, s trajanjem od 7 minuta po strani, mogli utjecati na povećanu pokretljivost kuka za pokret abdukcije.
Rezultati. Dobivena vrijednost za desni i lijevi zglob kuka pokazuje snažnu i pozitivnu korelaciju. To dokazuje da je izvedena terapija imala učinak na povećanje raspona pokreta.
Zaključci. Miofascijalno otpuštanje tkiva temporomandibularnog zgloba imalo je pozitivan učinak na povećanje raspona pokreta za abdukciju kuka.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG07B914

Abstract
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is one of the most common ailments associated with the human musculoskeletal system, characterised by the presence of the so-called trigger points (TrP – trigger point; MTrPs – myofascial trigger points). The International Association for the Study of Pain indicates that MPS may affect approximately one-third of people with chronic musculoskeletal pain, and that there is a lack of appropriate classification which can be attributed to a misunderstanding and/or misinterpretation of the pathophysiology. Given the diverse causes of pain syndromes in myofascial structures, it is vital to properly select and integrate therapeutic methods. The scientific literature indicates that treatment programmes should include a variety of manual therapy methods and rehabilitation exercises. Trigger point therapies, such as dry needling or dry cupping, are also widely used. At the heart of the success of rehabilitation programmes, in the opinion of the authors of this publication, is their multimodality, i.e. selection of therapeutic methods based on the cause of the pain, providing for measurable, reproducible diagnostic methods in therapy.
Aim of the study. The aim of this study is to analyse and infer conclusions on multimodal myofascial pain therapy programmes.
Material and methods. Given the complex research problem set as the aim, the study was carried out through a literature review in terms of two criteria:
Criterion I (C I): analysis of the literature on the etiology and pathogenesis of myofascial pain (i.e. causes and triggers, symptoms, social and environmental factors determining the onset of MPS), diagnostic procedures (initial diagnosis and ongoing monitoring of treatment outcomes), and therapeutic methods used in the course of MPS.
Criterion II (C II): a literature study of research publications addressing multimodal programmes for myofascial pain therapy, with their qualitative evaluation using the modified PEDro scale, and empirical testing of hypotheses based on the literature study and the analysis made in Part I.
Data sources: PubMed, SCOPUS, Science Direct, MEDLINE, PEDro, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, Google Scholar electronic databases were searched systematically, restricting the languages to English and German only.
Results. The analysis of the literature showed that the causes, symptoms and associations of myofascial pain have been described in detail. There are also numerous reports on a variety of therapeutic methods, together with a precisely described methodology for their implementation. It is not uncommon to recommend combining methods into multimodal programmes, which unfortunately does not mean that there are many such programmes or that studies on MPS are consistent. The literature study on multimodal treatment programmes for MPS revealed that there is no correlation between its pathogenesis and a purposeful selection of specific therapeutic methods. In a small number of cases, a complex etiopathogenesis led to the formation of multidisciplinary teams. This may be associated with the absence of strict recommendations on the diagnostic methods applicable to the assessment of MPS.
Conclusions. 1. Multimodal programmes for the treatment of musculoskeletal pain, notably MPS and MTrPs, should include a detailed and comprehensive diagnosis (structural, biochemical, psycho-emotional) which should serve as the basis for the formation of interdisciplinary rehabilitation teams. 2. Musculoskeletal diagnosis, in addition to radiological assessment, should include measurable techniques of postural and functional assessment (such as pedobarography, wearable sensors, assisted anthropometry, i.e. photogrammetry, videogrammetry, etc.), aimed primarily at the ongoing assessment of posture. 3. The choice of therapeutic methods and patient education should be based on the causes of the patient’s pain, taking into account systemic diseases, postural defects, lifestyle and psycho-emotional state. 4. Scientific research in multimodal treatment programmes should be carried out in randomised groups, with due attention to the methodologies of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and group selection.

Abstract
Condyloid process fractures are a serious injury to the temporomandibular joints, and the surgical supply of tissues intensifies the occurrence of certain disorders.
These Rehabilitation performed was proposed as a result of complications following surgical reconstruction of broken condyloid process of the mandible. The rate and amount of edema reduction were assessed. Changes in the movement of temporomandibular joints and complex movement of the cervical spine were measured. The rate and extent of reinnervation and the level of pain were controlled.
Mobility of joints and functional abilities of the surrounding systems have significantly improved. The function of the facial nerve has been restored to a small sensory-motor disorder.

Strategies of procedure in manual therapy

Tadeusz Kasperczyk, Robert Walaszek

Tadeusz Kasperczyk, Robert Walaszek – Strategies of procedure in manual therapy. Fizjoterapia Polska 2001; 1(2); 173-178

Abstract
Orthopedic manual therapy is involved with treatable joint and bone disorders, i.e. dysfunctions characterized by blocking. Its scope encompasses all diagnostic, preventive, and treatment techniques involving the spine, the limbs, and all other joints.The purpose of this article is to discuss the principles and course of treatment in manual therapy, understood as particular strategies of procedure. This includes the techniques of therapeutic procedure within the framework of three periods: Period I, which involves procedures prior to mobilization or manipulation, in order to create the best possible conditions for this operation; Period II, which pertains to the actual operation (techniques) of removing the block; and Period III, which includes procedures subsequent to manipulation, both immediately after the operation and in a later period of time. The article discusses in detail the proper tasks for each of these periods. Contraindications for manual therapy are also listed.

Paweł Ryngier, Edward Saulicz, Rafał Gnat, Tomasz Wolny – An evaluation of the rehabilitation for patients recovering from knee joint trauma surgically treated by internal osteosynthesis. Fizjoterapia Polska 2001; 1(4); 369-375

Abstract
Background. When the knee joint is immobilized, the sliding of joint surfaces is quickly reduced, primarily as a result of the periartricular contraction of the soft tissues (especially the articular capsule). This kind of mechanical imbalance between gliding and rolling is additionally strengthened by the disturbance of muscle equilibrium, both between different muscle groups (the femoral quadriceps and the ischio-crural muscles) and within the thigh muscle itself (between the vastus medialis and the rectus femoris). In the latter case, this status may also lead to the physiological route of knee-cap slide. In view of the complex arthromechanics of the knee joint and the proper distribution of muscle strength for its functioning, the purpose of our research was to study the impact of selected techniques of manual therapy and some of the motion patterns of the PNF method on improving the activity of the knee joint patients with injuries in the vicinity of this joint surgically treated by internal osteosynthesis. Material and methods. The study involved two groups of 17 people who were treated surgically for injuries to the vicinity of the knee joint. After a period of immobility the active mobility of this joint was assessed in all patients, along with the strength of the muscles functionally connected with the knee joint and subjective pain complaints. The studied patients from both groups underwent routine rehabilitation. Selected traction and mobilization techniques for the knee joint were additionally introduced for the patients from the main group, with exercises based on the notion of post-isometric relaxation and some motion patterns taken from PNF models. Results. The statistical analysis of the quantitative data we acquired pointed to a larger range of improvement in the mobility of the knee joint, associated with a somewhat larger simultaneous increase in the strength of the evaluated muscle groups among the patients from the main group.

Mirosław Kokosz, Edward Saulicz, Janusz Kubacki – Evaluating the effectiveness of mechanical methods on the basis of published reports. Fizjoterapia Polska 2003; 3(4); 347-356

Abstract

Background. Movement based-therapy is becoming increasing popular. In fact, it can be said to be dominant modality in contemporary kinesitherapy. One of the most important criteria justifying the use of a particular therapeutic method is its clinical suitability. In this article, we attempted to establish the effectiveness of mechanical methods on the basis of a literature search. For this purpose we used our own system of evaluating the quality of published reports. Material and methods. We analyzed 20 articles from the literature devoted to the problem of evaluated the effectiveness of mechanical methods. The research reports were then ranked on the basis of the authors’ own method of evaluating their quality. Results. The results of our meta-analysis suggest that kinesitherapeutic methods are more effective than individual treatment methods used in isolation. Conclusions. A literature search in the available data bases produces numerous works discussing therapeutic techniques or diagnostic methods. There are relatively few articles, however, that evaluate the effectiveness of movement-based therapy. There are no unified criteria for the evaluation of effectivenessm which means that in the analysis of outcomes achieved from using one and the same kinesitherapeutic method there are major discrepancies in the results obtained by different authors.

Abstract
This study shows an analysis of two rehabilitation methods in order to determine the differences between groups and changes after the therapy in terms of reducing pain, restoration of mobility and proper function of the cervical spine. The study was conducted on a group of 80 patients referred to rehabilitation due to restricted mobility and pain in the cervical spine, which resulted in impairment in everyday life. Patients were divided into two groups: group 1 consisted of 40 patients treated with PNF concept, and group 2 consisted of 40 patients treated with manual therapy elements. The study used a survey: Functional Index Scale and Oswestry scale for cervical and McGill pain Questionnaire. Additionally range of motion in certain planes was measured by the CROM device. Statistically significant differences were obtained in both groups of patients according to their individual rehabilitation program based on PNF concept and elements of manual therapy. However, patients who received PNF treatment showed greater improvement in mobility, function and pain relief. Results based analysis shows that therapy in group 1 and 2 was efficient, however PNF method proved to be more effective in comparison to treatment with manual therapy elements.
