Positive Effect of Manipulated Virtual Kinematic Intervention in Individuals with Traumatic Stiff Shoulder: A Pilot Study.

ABSTRACT: Virtual reality enables the manipulation of a patient's perception, providing additional motivation to real-time biofeedback exercises. We aimed to test the effect of manipulated virtual kinematic intervention on measures of active and passive range of motion (ROM), pain, and disability level in individuals with traumatic stiff shoulder. In a double-blinded study, patients with stiff shoulder following proximal humerus fracture and non-operative treatment were randomly divided into a non-manipulated feedback group (NM-group; n = 6) and a manipulated feedback group (M-group; n = 7). The shoulder ROM, pain, and disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) scores were tested at baseline and after 6 sessions, during which the subjects performed shoulder flexion and abduction in front of a graphic visualization of the shoulder angle. The biofeedback provided to the NM-group was the actual shoulder angle while the feedback provided to the M-group was manipulated so that 10° were constantly subtracted from the actual angle detected by the motion capture system. The M-group showed greater improvement in the active flexion ROM (p = 0.046) and DASH scores (p = 0.022). While both groups improved following the real-time virtual feedback intervention, the manipulated intervention provided to the M-group was more beneficial in individuals with traumatic stiff shoulder and should be further tested in other populations with orthopedic injuries.

Arthroscopic Circumferential Release for Stiff Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty.

Project description:Stiffness is a well-known complication after reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Although multiple factors may be involved, the main cause for stiffness is rarely identified. Imaging studies frequently are inconclusive in ruling out mechanical or biological causes. Periprosthetic infection should be always suspected, but the absence of major clinical signs and accurate diagnostic tests is frequent. A lack of objective criteria establishing a diagnosis and when to proceed with revision surgery is often present in such cases. Moreover, additional surgical procedures should be carefully evaluated, as they can represent a point of no return. Shoulder arthroscopy plays an increasingly important role in these cases, either as a diagnostic or therapeutic tool. There are no reports about arthroscopy on stiffness after reverse shoulder arthroplasty. In this Technical Note, we describe an arthroscopic technique aimed to identify potential causes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty stiffness. Subsequent circumferential release is described and discussed.

Anticipatory Postural Adjustments and kinematic arm features when postural stability is manipulated.

Project description:Beyond the classical paradigm that presents the Anticipatory Postural Adjustments (APAs) as a manner to create forces that counteract disturbances arising from the moving segment during a pointing task, there is a controversial discussion about the role APAs to facilitate the movement and perform a task accurately. In addition, arm kinematics features are classically used to infer the content of motor planning for the execution and the control of arm movements. The present study aimed to disentangle the conflicting role of APAs during an arm-pointing task in which the subjects reach a central diode that suddenly turns on, while their postural stability was manipulated. Three postures were applied: Standing (Up), Sit without feet support (SitUnsup) and Sit with feet support (SitSup). We found that challenging postural stability induced an increase of the reaction time and movement duration (observed for the SitUnsup compared to SitSUp and Up) as well as modified the upper-limb velocity profile. Indeed, a greater max velocity and a shorter deceleration time were observed under the highest stability (SitSup). Thus, these Kinematics features reflect less challenging task and simple motor plan when the body is stabilized. Concerning the APAs, we observed the presence of them independently of the postural stability. Such a result strongly suggests that APAs act to facilitate the limb movement and to counteract perturbation forces. In conclusion, the degree of stability seems particularly tuned to the motor planning of the upper-limb during a pointing task whereas the postural chain (sitting vs. standing) was also determinant for APAs.

Shoulder pain and cycle to cycle kinematic spatial variability during recovery phase in manual wheelchair users: a pilot investigation.

Project description:UnlabelledWheelchair propulsion plays a significant role in the development of shoulder pain in manual wheelchair users (MWU). However wheelchair propulsion metrics related to shoulder pain are not clearly understood. This investigation examined intra-individual kinematic spatial variability during semi-circular wheelchair propulsion as a function of shoulder pain in MWU. Data from 10 experienced adult MWU with spinal cord injury (5 with shoulder pain; 5 without shoulder pain) were analyzed in this study. Participants propelled their own wheelchairs on a dynamometer at 3 distinct speeds (self-selected, 0.7 m/s, 1.1 m/s) for 3 minutes at each speed. Motion capture data of the upper limbs were recorded. Intra-individual kinematic spatial variability of the steady state wrist motion during the recovery phase was determined using principal component analysis (PCA). The kinematic spatial variability was calculated at every 10% intervals (i.e at 11 interval points, from 0% to 100%) along the wrist recovery path.ResultsOverall, spatial variability was found to be highest at the start and end of the recovery phase and lowest during the middle of the recovery path. Individuals with shoulder pain displayed significantly higher kinematic spatial variability than individuals without shoulder pain at the start (at 10% interval) of the recovery phase (p<.004).ConclusionsAnalysis of intra-individual kinematic spatial variability during the recovery phase of manual wheelchair propulsion distinguished between those with and without shoulder pain. Variability analysis of wheelchair propulsion may offer a new approach to monitor the development and rehabilitation of shoulder pain.

Management of the Stiff Shoulder With Arthroscopic Circumferential Capsulotomy and Axillary Nerve Release.

Project description:Management of the stiff shoulder is a common and frequently daunting clinical scenario. Arthroscopic capsular release is usually an option for management of severe, chronic glenohumeral joint contractures when conservative treatment fails. Technical hurdles including a thickened capsule, reduction in joint volume, and difficulty with positioning the shoulder intraoperatively can make this procedure challenging. In addition, incomplete release and recalcitrant stiffness are frequent issues. We believe a complete release of the capsule entails special attention to the axillary pouch and requires identification and protection of the axillary nerve. We present a technique for a complete arthroscopic circumferential capsulotomy and detail our approach to safely dissect and protect the axillary nerve under arthroscopic visualization.

The Virtual Shoulder and Knee Physical Examination.

Project description:The COVID-19 crisis has forced a sudden and dramatic shift in the way that clinicians interact with their patients, from outpatient encounters to telehealth visits utilizing a variety of internet-based videoconferencing applications. Although many aspects of pre-COVID-19 outpatient sports medicine care will ultimately resume, it is likely that telehealth will persist because of its practicality and because of patient demand for access to efficient and convenient health care. Physical examination is widely considered a critical obstacle to a thorough evaluation of sports medicine patients during telehealth visits. However, a closer reflection suggests that a majority of the examination maneuvers are possible virtually with limited, if any, modifications. Thus, we provide a comprehensive shoulder and knee physical examination for sports medicine telehealth visits, including (1) verbal instructions in layman's terms that can be provided to the patient before or read verbatim during the visit, (2) multimedia options (narrated videos and annotated presentations) of the shoulder and knee examination that can be provided to patients via screen-share options, and (3) a corresponding checklist to aid in documentation.

Online Intervention for Caregivers of Children with Early Traumatic Brain Injury: Pilot Trial.

Project description:ObjectiveTo assess the feasibility and acceptability of an online parenting-skills program for caregivers of young children with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Positive parenting contributes to recovery following early TBI and social and emotional development in typically developing children. Yet, few interventions have been designed to support psychosocial recovery and subsequent development after early TBI.MethodsThis study protocol was registered with clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05160194). We utilized an academic hospital's Trauma Registry to recruit caregivers of children, ages 0-4 years, previously hospitalized for TBI. The GROW intervention integrated six online learning modules with videoconference meetings with a coach to review and practice skills while receiving in vivo coaching and feedback. Interactive modules addressed strategies for responsive parenting, stimulating cognition, and managing parenting stress. Enrollment and retention rates served as feasibility metrics and satisfaction surveys assessed acceptability.Results18 of 72 families contacted (25%) consented, and 11 of 18 (61%) completed the intervention and follow-up assessments. All participants rated the intervention as helpful and indicated that they would recommend the intervention to others. All endorsed a better understanding of brain injury and how to optimize their child's recovery and development. Both coaches rated intervention delivery as comparable to traditional face-to-face treatment.ConclusionsLow levels of uptake and initial engagement underscore the challenges of intervening with caregivers following early TBI, which likely were exacerbated due to the COVID-19 pandemic. High levels of acceptability and perceived benefit support the potential utility of GROW while highlighting the need to improve accessibility and early engagement.

Neurocognitive Driving Rehabilitation in Virtual Environments (NeuroDRIVE): A pilot clinical trial for chronic traumatic brain injury.

Project description:BackgroundVirtual reality (VR) technology may provide an effective means to integrate cognitive and functional approaches to TBI rehabilitation. However, little is known about the effectiveness of VR rehabilitation for TBI-related cognitive deficits. In response to these clinical and research gaps, we developed Neurocognitive Driving Rehabilitation in Virtual Environments (NeuroDRIVE), an intervention designed to improve cognitive performance, driving safety, and neurobehavioral symptoms.ObjectiveThis pilot clinical trial was conducted to examine feasibility and preliminary efficacy of NeuroDRIVE for rehabilitation of chronic TBI.MethodsEleven participants who received the intervention were compared to six wait-listed participants on driving abilities, cognitive performance, and neurobehavioral symptoms.ResultsThe NeuroDRIVE intervention was associated with significant improvements in working memory and visual search/selective attention- two cognitive skills that represented a primary focus of the intervention. By comparison, no significant changes were observed in untrained cognitive areas, neurobehavioral symptoms, or driving skills.ConclusionsResults suggest that immersive virtual environments can provide a valuable and engaging means to achieve some cognitive rehabilitation goals, particularly when these goals are closely matched to the VR training exercises. However, additional research is needed to augment our understanding of rehabilitation for driving skills, cognitive performance, and neurobehavioral symptoms in chronic TBI.

Virtual Group-based Walking Intervention for Persons with Schizophrenia: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

Project description:Persons with schizophrenia have reduced cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), a predictor of all-cause mortality. Exercise is effective for improving CRF; however, motivational challenges affecting those with schizophrenia impact exercise engagement and maintenance. Virtual Physical Activity Can Enhance Life (Virtual PACE-Life), a multicomponent walking intervention guided by self-determination theory (SDT), was developed to target CRF in this population while addressing motivational difficulties. Virtual PACE-Life includes live video-delivered group walking sessions, Fitbit activity tracking, recommendations for home-based walking sessions, goal setting, and if-then plans. The present study was a 16-week pilot randomized controlled trial that evaluated the impact of Virtual PACE-Life against Fitbit Alone in a sample of 37 participants with schizophrenia on intermediate targets (competence, autonomy, and relatedness satisfaction, autonomous motivation), proximal outcomes (Fitbit-measured steps/day and minutes spent walking), and the primary outcome (CRF using the 6-minute walk test). Blinded research staff completed assessments at baseline, midpoint, posttest, and one-month follow-up. Analysis of covariance and hierarchical linear regression analyses were used to evaluate group differences at each timepoint controlling for baseline. Attendance at Virtual PACE-Life groups was 58% and Fitbit adherence was above 70% in both conditions. Intent-to-treat results indicated greater competence and autonomy satisfaction for Virtual PACE-Life but not in relatedness satisfaction or autonomous motivation. There were no group differences in proximal or primary outcomes during the intervention period. Completer analyses showed improvements in steps/day and autonomous motivation favoring Virtual PACE-Life. Future research is needed to maximize the exercise and CRF benefits of virtual group-based exercise for persons with schizophrenia.
