Outcome of Different Approaches to Reduce Urinary Tract Infection in Patients With Spinal Cord Lesions: A Systematic Review
Neurogenic bladder disorders are common among patients with spinal cord lesions, which often result in upper and lower urinary tract complications. Urinary tract infection has remained the most frequent type of infection in this population. Our aim is to review systematically the literature on the outcome of different intervention methods to reduce urinary tract infection incidence. A literature search was conducted in the database of Medline, PubMed, Embase, and Scopus. After screening 1559 articles,...

Outpatient Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy Synchronous Telemedicine: A Survey Study of Patient Satisfaction with Virtual Visits During the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed health care delivery, including rapid expansion of telehealth. Telerehabilitation, defined as therapy provided by physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech and language pathology, was rapidly adopted with goals to provide access to care and limit contagion. The purpose of this brief report was to describe the feasibility of and satisfaction with telerehabilitation. A total of 205 participants completed online surveys after a telerehabilitation visit. Most...

Segmental Spinal Myoclonus After a Cervical Transforaminal Epidural Steroid Injection
In clinical practice, cervical transforaminal epidural steroid injection is commonly used for alleviating pain. We report a case of segmental spinal myoclonus that developed after cervical transforaminal local anesthetic and steroid injection. A 39-yr-old man presented involuntary movements of the bilateral upper trapezius muscles after cervical transforaminal epidural steroid injection on the right C6 and C7 roots with a 5 mg of dexamethasone injectate mixed with 0.5 ml of 1% lidocaine and 0.5 ml...

Pulmonary Embolism After Acute Spinal Cord Injury and COVID-19
The coronavirus virus disease 2019 is best known for its pulmonary sequelae. Understanding of the disease process is rapidly growing, and the medical community already appreciates a hypercoagulable state associated with coronavirus virus disease 2019. Acute spinal cord injury has an inherent increased risk for venous thromboembolism. In this case report, the patient presented with bilateral lower limb weakness and sensory loss secondary to thoracic disc herniation. Incidentally, at the same time...

A Systematic Review of Intra-Articular Ketamine for Postoperative Analgesia
Background This systematic review appraises the evidence from human clinical trials comparing postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption in patients receiving intra-articular ketamine versus other modalities of analgesia after orthopedic joint procedures. Methods Studies were identified from Embase, Scopus, and OVID Medline databases. Included studies compared patients receiving intra-articular ketamine versus other modalities of analgesia. The primary outcome of interest was postprocedural...

African American Patient Disparities in COVID-19 Outcomes: A Call to Action for Physiatrists to Provide Rehabilitation Care to Black Survivors
SARS-CoV-2 is a novel and highly contagious coronavirus that has been a major threat to the public’s health. As the pandemic has spread across the United States, it has become abundantly clear that vulnerable populations include not only the elderly and individuals with disabilities but also those who are homeless or incarcerated, Latinx Americans, African Americans, and Native Americans. This report is focused on the experience of Black patients, inclusive of African Americans, and recognizes the...

Investigating the Clinical Significance and Research Discrepancies of Balance Training in Degenerative Cerebellar Disease: A Systematic Review
Objective The aims of this study were to understand the clinical significance of balance training in degenerative cerebellar disease and to analyze inconsistencies among published data. Design Five databases were searched from inception to October 8, 2019. Cochrane guidelines informed review methods, and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed. The Australian National Health and Medical Research Council Evidence Hierarchy, PEDro scale, and...

Relationship Satisfaction and Depression After Traumatic Brain Injury: An Actor-Partner Interdependence Model of Patients and Caregivers in Mexico and Colombia
Objective Traumatic brain injury represents a major public health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like in Latin America. Family members are often caregivers for individuals with traumatic brain injury, which can result in significant stress. Research is needed to examine depression and quality of the caregiving relationship in these dyads. This study examined relationship quality and depression longitudinally after traumatic brain injury within the caregiving relationship. ...

An Evaluation of Age-Based Differences in the Demographic Features and Clinical Outcomes of Trauma Rehabilitation Patients
Objective The aims of the study were to describe potential age-related differences in injury type and mechanism, comorbidities, and physical medicine and rehabilitation–relevant complications in patients admitted after major trauma and to examine whether functional outcomes vary by age group after traumatic injury. Design This is a subanalysis of a pre-post study. Individuals admitted to a level 1 trauma center who sustained major trauma were divided into three age groups (young, middle age,...

Effects of Trunk Stabilization Exercise While Wearing a Pelvic Compression Belt on Walking and Balancing Abilities in Patients With Stroke: An Assessor Blinded, Preliminary, Randomized, Controlled Study
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of wearing a pelvic compression belt during trunk stability exercise on balance and gait ability in patients with stroke. Design Thirty-six patients with stroke participated and were randomly allocated to three groups: the paretic group (trunk stability exercise wearing a pelvic belt on the paretic side), the nonparetic group (trunk stability exercise wearing a pelvic belt on the nonparetic side), or the control group (trunk stability...

A Retrospective Analysis of Factors Impacting Rehabilitation Outcomes in Patients With Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Objective This study aimed to identify the factors associated with motor and activities of daily living recovery after 4-wk rehabilitation in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Design Eight hundred ten eligible patients were enrolled and engaged in 4-wk rehabilitation. Fugl-Meyer score and Modified Barthel Index were used to measure the motor and activities of daily living function. Multivariate linear regressions were used to investigate the effect of the 23 preexisting conditions in...

Association Between Changes in Subjective and Objective Measures of Mobility in People With Lower Limb Amputations After Inpatient Rehabilitation
Functional recovery for people with lower limb amputations is quantified using objective or subjective measures of performance. In this brief report, the prospective relationship between objective and subjective mobility after rehabilitation was evaluated in people with lower limb amputations. Adults undergoing inpatient prosthetic rehabilitation for a first unilateral transtibial or transfemoral level lower limb amputation were recruited. Assessment times: discharge and 4-mo follow-up. Gait velocity...

Establishment of a Novel Porcine Model to Study the Impact of Active Stretching on a Local Carrageenan-Induced Inflammation
Objective Active stretching of the body is integral to complementary mind-body therapies such as yoga, as well as physical therapy, yet the biologic mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effects remain largely unknown. A previous study showed the impact of active stretching on inflammatory processes in rats. The present study tested the feasibility of using a porcine model, with a closer resemblance to human anatomy, to study the effects of active stretching in the resolution of localized inflammation. ...

Military Sexual Trauma and Chronic Pain in Veterans
Objective Chronic pain rehabilitation warrants sensitivity to unique psychosocial factors, such as trauma history. In Veterans of the United States Armed Forces, military sexual trauma (MST) is a pervasive type of trauma associated with a host of physical and psychological sequelae. A growing literature suggests a relationship between history of MST and chronic pain. This study sought to clarify the relationship between MST and chronic pain among male and female Veterans and explore whether individual...
