Intensyvus treniravimasis be tinkamo apšilimo ir atvėsinimo gali sukelti blauzdos skausmą bėgikams, kuris gali sumažinti sportininkų našumą treniruotėse ir varžybose. Šis tyrimas siekia nustatyti PNF treniruočių terapijos poveikį blauzdos skausmui maratono bėgikams. Tyrime taikomas kvazieksperimentinis metodas, naudojant vienos grupės prieštestinį ir potestinį dizainą. Duomenys buvo renkami atliekant testus ir matavimus naudojant goniometrą sąnario judesių amplitudės (ROM) vertinimui ir vizualinę analoginę skalę (VAS) skausmo lygiui matuoti. Tyrimo dalyviai buvo bėgimo atletai iš Džogjakartos bėgimo bendruomenės, ir buvo atrinkti 16 asmenų pagal konkrečius kriterijus. Tyrimo rezultatai parodė reikšmingą vidutinį kelio skausmo sumažėjimą 1,00 ir čiurnos skausmo sumažėjimą 0,94. Be to, buvo pastebėtas kelio ROM padidėjimas: lenkimas padidėjo 7,81; tiesimas – 7,82; pritraukimas – 4,25; atitraukimas – 3,75. Taip pat padidėjo čiurnos ROM: dorsifleksija – 5,94; plantarfleksija – 3,62; inversija – 3,57; eversija – 2,68.

Santrauka
Fonas. Hamstringų įtampa veikia dubens padėtį, prisidedant prie simptomų, tokių kaip nugaros diskomfortas ir netinkami juosmens-dubens srities judesiai. Šio tyrimo tikslas yra nustatyti, ar Proprioceptyvinė neuromuskulinė facilitiacija (PNF) ir raumenų energijos technika (MET) veiksmingai mažina hamstringų įtampą. Literatūros stygius paliko šios temos tyrimo spragą. Todėl mano tyrimo tikslas yra palyginti šių dviejų intervencijų poveikį gerinant hamstringų lankstumą tarp universitetinių studentų, turinčių hamstringų įtampą. Metodai. I grupę sudarė 20 dalyvių, kurie 30 minučių gavo PNF. II grupė taip pat buvo sudaryta iš 20 dalyvių, kurie gavo MET 30 minučių. Tyrimas truko 4 savaites. Rezultatai. ROM kintamuosius buvo tikrinta naudojant nepriklausomą „t“ testą su reikšmingumo lygiu 0,05. PNF grupės hamstringų ROM skirtumo vidurkis ± SD buvo 9,77 ± 4,01°, o MET grupės – 10,7 ± 5,21°. Tai rodo, kad tarp I ir II grupių buvo pastebėtas reikšmingas skirtumas, taip pat reikšmingas skirtumas tarp prieš ir po intervencijos gautų verčių. Išvada. Tyrimo rezultatai parodė, kad tiek PNF, tiek MET reikšmingai pagerino (p = 0,000) ROM. Tuo tarpu tarp šių dviejų intervencijų reikšmingų skirtumų nerasta (p > 0,05).

Grzegorz Srokowski, Anna Srokowska, Jan Talar, Wojciech Hagner, Agnieszka Połomska – The impact of intensive functional rehabilitation on improved sensorimotor control and locomotor capabilities in a patient with spinal cord injury (SCI). Fizjoterapia Polska 2004; 4(3); 272-283

Abstract

Background. Contemporary rehabilitation is developing in many different directions. In view of the scope of research and practice, it is a discipline that joins many sciences sharing a common goal: to help the patient. This task is performed by an interdisciplinary rehabilitation team composed of the attending physician and the physiotherapist, along with other specialists. The constantly growing number of patients and increasing financial constraints are making it essential to seek new therapeutic solutions. One of many possible strategies is the PNF concept. This method is characterized by a holistic approach to the patient, based on behaviors and daily life situations with which the patient is familiar, and using available rehabilitation equipment. Case description. This article presents a case study of a female patient admitted for rehabilitation after a spinal cord injury (SCI) to the Department of Rehabilitation at the Bydgoszcz Medical University. Examples are provided of functional exercises used in the intensive rehabilitation program developed for this patient. The ASIA scale was used to assess outcome, along with functional tests for patients with paraplegia, a modified version of the Barthel test. Conclusions. The successful outcome in this case resulted from the cooperation of the entire therapeutic team, and from the exchange of information regarding the patient’s clinical status and progress in treatment. Close cooperation makes it possible to chose the optimal method, ensuring effective and safe work with the patient.

Tomasz Wolny, Edward Saulicz, Rafał Gnat – Efficacy of the PNF method in rehabilitation for activities of daily living in late post-stroke patients. Fizjoterapia Polska 2009; 9(1); 51-60

Abstract
Background. Our increasing knowledge on the complexity of CNS injuries and mechanisms of neuronal plasticity indicates that the traditional approach to rehabilitation of stroke patients is no longer adequate. Appropriate stimulation of the central nerv-ous system to promote neuromuscular plasticity is crucial for the restoration of normal function. Rehabilitation based on PNF (Pro-prioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) significantly improves ADL functional performance of post-stroke patients. Materiał and methods. A total of 64 stroke patients were randomly divided into two groups. ActMties of daily living were eval-uated by means of the ‘Repty’ Functional lndex, which includes: self-service, sphincter control, mobility locomotion and communi-cation. Throughout the study period (their stay at the Neurological Rehabilitation Ward for a mean of 21 days), all patients received comprehensive rehabilitation, with Group A receiving conventional rehabilitation and Group B receMng also indMdual kinesiother-apy based on the PNF method. Results. Analysis of yariance showed significant differences in the following domains of the ‘Repty’ Functional lndex: self-service (p=0.0015), locomotion (p=0.0279), and total score (p=0.0032). No significant differences were found in the remaining domains (sphincter control, mobility and communication). Conclusions. PNF-based rehabilitation of late post-stroke patients significantly improved their ADL functional performance with respect to self-service and locomotion.

Jakub Stolarski, Jan Kochanowski, Joanna Trochimiuk, Sebastian Wójtowicz – Poststroke physiotherapy of the patient with pusher syndrome – case study. Fizjoterapia Polska 2010; 10(4); 317-323

Abstract
Postural disturbances in stroke patients may present as pusher syndrome. The aim of the study was to describe the treatment process and outcomes of physiotherapy of a post-ischaemic stroke patient with co-existing pusher syndrome. We describe a 78-year-old patient (S.L.) with left hemiplegia and pusher syndrome. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed an ischaemic focus with a small haemorrhage in the posterior thalamus and posterior limb of the internal capsule. The patient underwent physiotherapy based on Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF). The pusher syndrome, which was diagnosed in the late stage of hospitalisation, was measured with the Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), in which the patient scored 3.75 pts. Intensive rehabilitation started in the early post-stroke phase helped the patient achieve independence in changing position and sitting without assistance or support. The pushing behaviour did not improve in spite of appropriate therapy and verbal instructions. After 33 days of hospitalisation and physiotherapy at a Neurology Department, the patient was transferred to a Neurorehabilitation Unit for further rehabilitation. The pusher syndrome slowed down the recovery and reduced possibilities for applying rehabilitation in high positions (sitting and standing) in the early stage of post-stroke physiotherapy.

Abstract
Early comprehensive multidisciplinary rehabilitation is crucial for achieving satisfactory results in the conservative management of post-stroke patients. Gait re-education is a major goal in post-stroke rehabilitation regardless of how much time has elapsed since the stroke. The study hypothesis was that therapy based on PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) would significantly improve loading symmetry of the lower limbs, thus enabling faster restoration of the support and locomotor function and improving gait efficiency in post-stroke patients. A total of 64 stroke patients were randomly divided into two groups. A Loading Symmetry Index (LSI) of the lower limbs was calculated basing on data recorded in the ‘two-scales’ test. Patients were followed up for a mean of 21 days (during which they stayed at a Neurological Rehabilitation Ward). Group A received conventional rehabilitation while Group B also received individual kinesiotherapy based on the PNF method. Analysis of variance showed significant differences in LSI values (interaction: group x measurement – p=0.0075). Post hoc Tukey test revealed significant intra-group differences in Group B (p=0.0002). There were no significant intra-group differences in Group A or significant differences between the groups. PNF-based rehabilitation of late-stage post-stroke patients significantly improved loading symmetry of the lower extre – mities.

Abstract
The complex pathophysiology of spasticity depends on the interaction between facilitation and inhibition of spinal and supraspinal neural centres and pathways. Contemporary medicine has developed several methods to treat spasticity. However, none of them has offered superior efficacy. This study aimed to investigate differences in the degree of spasticity between patients subjected to traditional post-stroke rehabilitation and rehabilitation based on the PNF method.A total of 64 stroke patients were enrolled. They were randomly divided into Group A and Group B. The modified six-grade Ashworth scale was used to evaluate the level of spasticity. During a 21-day follow-up, all subjects underwent intensive comprehensive rehabilitation. Group A received traditional stroke therapy. Group B received kinesiotherapy based on the PNF method.Both groups demonstrated significant improvements. In Group A, the degree of improvement in the final examination was 1.8% compared to baseline. In Group B, an improvement of 7.8% was registered already after the first session. The degree of improvement at the end of treatment was 16.86%. No significant inter-group differences were noted at baseline. The final evaluation showed significant differences.A regimen based on the PNF method resulted in greater reduction in spasticity than the traditional approach.

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.

Streszczenie

Biorąc pod uwagę, jak bardzo niebezpieczne są następstwa urazu stawu ramiennego, priorytetowym elementem jest dążenie do zahamowania ich przyczyny, a także objawów. Przeprowadzone badania miały na celu ocenę wpływu zabiegów krioterapii miejscowej oraz elementów metody PNF na ruchomość stawu ramiennego u pacjentów z rozpoznaniem zespołu ciasnoty podbarkowej. Każda z grup (badana i kontrolna) liczyła 18 pacjentów. Chorych w grupie badanej poddano 15 codziennym zabiegom krioterapii miejscowej oraz zastosowano u nich elementy metody PNF na okolicę obręczy barkowej. Grupa kontrolna objęta została tylko i wyłącznie 15 codziennymi zabiegami krioterapii miejscowej, skutecznie działającej w leczeniu różnego rodzaju dysfunkcji. Krioterapia w połączeniu z innymi metodami terapeutycznymi np. PNF daje znacząco lepsze rezultaty, aniżeli wykonywana oddzielnie.
