Immediate physical therapy in dogs with rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament submitted to extracapsular surgical stabilization
Provedor de dados: Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia
Autores: Berté,L.; Mazzanti,A.; Salbego,F.Z.; Beckmann,D.V.; Santos,R.P.; Polidoro,D.; Baumhardt,R.
The study evaluated the influence of immediate physical therapy on the functional recovery of hind limbs of dogs with experimental cranial cruciate ligament rupture which underwent surgical extracapsular stabilization as well as to verify its interference in joint stability. Eight dogs were randomly divided into two groups: GI (control) (n=4) and GII (physical therapy) (n=4). The dogs in GII underwent the following therapeutic treatments in the postoperative period: cryotherapy, passive joint movement, massage, passive straightening, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, hydrotherapy (bath and aquatic mat) and therapeutic exercises. We performed evaluations of the thigh circumference, goniometry, X-ray, and knee stability (drawer test). Results did not...

Recurrent pneumonia caused by genetic immunodeficiency: a prophylactic and rehabilitative approach
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Autores: Leal,Renata Cristina de Angelo Calsaverini; Bertelli,Érika Cristina Pavarino; Soler,Zaida Aurora Sperli Geraldes.
Recurrent infections are a consequence of a series of genetic diseases characterized by deficiency in the immunological response. One of these diseases is the agammaglobulinemia, which is characterized by the basic defect in the maturation of lymphocytes B. The carrier of this kind of immunodeficiency, which is linked to the X (XLA) chromosome, has had primary pneumonias that have evolved into secondary pneumonias (chronic lungs with sequelae) after the third or fourth year of life. The clinical and rehabilitative quest for prophylaxis against the XLA immunodeficiency is accomplished in order to avoid the evolution of the bacterial infection into sequelae and loss of pulmonary function, which propitiates the recurrence of the disease and deteriorates the...

Assessment of tidal volume and thoracoabdominal motion using volume and flow-oriented incentive spirometers in healthy subjects
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: Parreira,V.F.; Tomich,G.M.; Britto,R.R.; Sampaio,R.F.
The objective of the present study was to evaluate incentive spirometers using volume- (Coach and Voldyne) and flow-oriented (Triflo II and Respirex) devices. Sixteen healthy subjects, 24 ± 4 years, 62 ± 12 kg, were studied. Respiratory variables were obtained by respiratory inductive plethysmography, with subjects in a semi-reclined position (45º). Tidal volume, respiratory frequency, minute ventilation, inspiratory duty cycle, mean inspiratory flow, and thoracoabdominal motion were measured. Statistical analysis was performed with Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, t-test and ANOVA. Comparison between the Coach and Voldyne devices showed that larger values of tidal volume (1035 ± 268 vs 947 ± 268 ml, P = 0.02) and minute ventilation (9.07 ± 3.61 vs 7.49 ± 2.58...

Anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of phonophoresis in animal models: a randomized experimental study
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: Cardoso,L.C.P.; Pinto,N.B.; Nobre,M.E.P.; Silva,M.R.; Pires,G.M.; Lopes,M.J.P.; Viana,G.S.B.; Rodrigues,L.M.R.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effects of ultrasound (US)-mediated phonophoresis alone or in association with diclofenac diethylammonium (DCF) administered topically in animal models of inflammation. A pre-clinical, prospective, and randomized experimental study of quantitative and qualitative nature was carried out. Phonophoresis was performed using a therapeutic ultrasound apparatus in two distinct models of acute inflammation. Edema was induced by an intraplantar injection of carrageenan and measured by plethysmography. The Hargreaves test was used to evaluate the antinociceptive activity and investigate the action of phonophoresis on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α production. A histological analysis with hematoxylin-eosin was used...

Acute effect of passive cycle-ergometry and functional electrical stimulation on nitrosative stress and inflammatory cytokines in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients: a randomized controlled trial
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: França,E.E.T.; Gomes,J.P.V.; De Lira,J.M.B.; Amaral,T.C.N.; Vilaça,A.F.; Paiva Júnior,M.D.S.; Elihimas Júnior,U.F.; Correia Júnior,M.A.V.; Forgiarini Júnior,L.A.; Costa,M.J.C.; Andrade,M.A.; Ribeiro,L.C.; De Castro,C.M.M.B.
Early mobilization is beneficial for critically ill patients because it reduces muscle weakness acquired in intensive care units. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of functional electrical stimulation (FES) and passive cycle ergometry (PCE) on the nitrous stress and inflammatory cytometry in critically ill patients. This was a controlled, randomized, open clinical trial carried out in a 16-bed intensive care unit. The patients were randomized into four groups: Control group (n=10), did not undergo any therapeutic intervention during the study; PCE group (n=9), lower-limb PCE for 30 cycles/min for 20 min; FES group (n=9), electrical stimulation of quadriceps muscle for 20 min; and FES with PCE group (n=7), patients underwent PCE and FES,...
