13. SHUEE on the evaluation of upper limb in cerebral palsy
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate the use of the tool for evaluation of spastic upper limb SHUEE (Shriners Hospital Upper Extremity Evaluation) in the evaluation of upper limb in cerebral palsy (CP) and its ability to detect changes after surgical treatment of identified deformities. METHODS: 19 patients with spastic hemiplegic CP had their upper limb evaluated by

15. Effect of upper extremity proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation combined with elastic resistance bands on respiratory muscle strength: a randomized controlled trial
BACKGROUND: Elastic resistance bands (ERB) combined with proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) are often used in resistance muscle training programs, which have potential effects on peripheral muscle strength. However, the effects of the combination of ERB and PNF on respiratory muscle strength warrant further investigation. OBJECTIVES: The a

17. Análise tridimensional do movimento de membros superiores com uso de pulseira de peso em adultos jovens sadios e com Paralisia Cerebral do tipo discinético. / Three-dimensional analysis of the movement of superior members with use of bracelet of weight in healthy young adults and with Cerebral Paralysis of the discinético type.
O objetivo do estudo foi verificar a influência da pulseira de peso no desempenho do movimento de levar um copo cilíndrico com 50% de preenchimento de seu volume total à boca, em onze adultos jovens sadios (24,09 3,73 anos) e dezesseis pacientes com Paralisia Cerebral do tipo discinético (que compuseram o GPCD) (29,63 4,42 anos). Nove câmeras de infra v

18. Avaliação da eletroestimulação nervosa transcutânea para alívio da dor de contração uterina pós-parto durante a amamentação: ensaio clínico randomizado / Assessment of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation to relieve the painful postpartum uterine contractions during breastfeeding: a randomized clinical trial
During breastfeeding occurs the release of oxytocin for milk ejection, that cause uterine contractions associated with painful process. The transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a physical therapy resource, which aims to pain relief. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of TENS to relief of painful uterine contra

19. Exercise-induced improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness and heart rate response to exercise are impaired in overweight/obese postmenopausal women
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare the heart rate response to exercise and the exercise-induced improvements in muscle strength, cardiorespiratory fitness and heart rate response between normal-weight and overweight/obese postmenopausal women. METHODS: Sedentary women (n = 155) were divided into normal-weight (n = 79; BMI <25 kg/m²; 58.3 +

20. Intravenous regional block is similar to sympathetic ganglion block for pain management in patients with complex regional pain syndrome type I
Sympathetic ganglion block (SGB) or intravenous regional block (IVRB) has been recommended for pain management in patients with complex regional pain syndrome type I (CRPS-I). Forty-five patients were initially selected but only 43 were accepted for the study. The present study evaluated the efficacy of IVRB produced by combining 70 mg lidocaine with 30 µg

21. Terapia elétrica funcional intensiva no membro superior parético de pacientes pós acidente vascular encefálico / Intensive functional electrical therapy in the hemiparetic upper extremity of stroke patients
Indivíduos acometidos por acidente vascular encefálico (AVE) freqüentemente apresentam diminuição na habilidade de controlar os movimentos do ombro, cotovelo e punho, bem como de realizar as tarefas de preensão com o membro superior afetado (parético). Na última década, estudos têm investigado os efeitos da aplicação simultânea e intensiva de es

23. Implementação de um modelo para cálculo das forças proximais e momentos proximais resultantes para o membro superior
Este estudo teve como objetivo implementar um modelo biomecânico, de segmentos articulados, associado à solução inversa que permita a análise em três dimensões das forças de reação proximais e momentos proximais resultantes para diferentes gestos do membro superior. O modelo implementado é composto por cinco segmentos rígidos (mão, antebraço, b

24. Terapia de restrição de membro superior não paretico e indução de movimento em pacientes hemipareticos / Constrain therapy in upper estremity not paretic and induced movement in hemiparetics patients
The Constraint-Induced movement therapy is enters the forms of treatment that more blunts in the world, for presenting excellent functional results. Low the tack to the treatment has been target of quarrel, then its protocol has been modified to minimize this problematic one. In this work the technique was adapted and made the evaluation of the hemiparetic b
