Objective To investigate the influence of the integration of fracture treatment and exercise rehabilitation on the effectiveness in the patients with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. Methods Between January 2007 and December 2009, 3 873 patients with intertrochanteric fracture of femur were surgically treated in 56 hospitals. Of them, 1 970 cases were treated with rehabilitation training according to scale of safety assessment of early exercise rehabilitation of patients with fractures (trial group), 1 903 cases were treated with traditional rehabilitation training methods (control group). There was no significant difference in age, gender, fracture type, internal fixation type, or postoperative safety score between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results All the patients were followed up 13-49 months (mean, 30.5 months). There was no significant difference in the incidences of bone nonunion, delayed union, and systemic complication between 2 groups (P gt; 0.05); significant differences were found in the incidences of incision complication, deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity, and the overall complication between 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). At 6 and 12 months after operation, the trial group was significantly better than the control group in the recovery of hip motion, curative effectiveness classification, and the excellent and good rate (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion The treatment of intertrochanteric fracture of the femur guided by the integration of fracture treatment and exercise rehabilitation can apparently improve the prognosis and reduce the incidence of complications.

Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis are characterized with lower cardiorespiratory capacity and muscle atrophy, thus easily leading to a sedentary lifestyle. These patients are usually associated with lower quality of life and worse prognosis. Evidence indicates appropriate exercise rehabilitation plan could help maintenance hemodialysis patients achieve better health outcomes. However, there is still a lack of evidence data to precisely recommend exercise type, intensity, frequency and timing specially designed for maintenance hemodialysis patients. This article aims to summarize the existing expert consensus on exercise rehabilitation for maintenance hemodialysis patients, important considerations in the implementation process, factors that affect exercise rehabilitation, with a view to encouraging maintenance hemodialysis patients to participate in the development of appropriate exercise rehabilitation plan and maximize health benefits.
Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) with long duration and a variety of complications have caused great physical and psychological problems for patients, and the overall quality of life of patients is low. Taijiquan, as a traditional Chinese techniques project, is beneficial to improving cardiopulmonary function, enhancing lower limb muscle strength, and reducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks. We summarized the latest progress in clinical research concerning taijiquan as exercise rehabilitation for patients with CKD, aiming to promote the clinical application of taijiquan and other traditional exercises in the rehabilitation process of CKD patients and improve the overall quality of life of CKD patients.
Objective To study the application effect of Snyder hope theory combined with Satir model in the rehabilitation therapy of young and middle-aged patients with stroke. Methods A total of 224 young and middle-aged patients with stroke admitted to Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University between August 2018 and August 2020 were divided into four groups (control group, Satir group, Snyder group, and combined group) according to the random number table method by taking admission time as sequence. All patients were given rehabilitation training on the basis of conventional treatment, and the Satir group was given group guidance of Satir model, the Snyder group was given hope therapy based on Snyder hope theory, and the combined group was given intervention combined Snyder hope theory with Satir model. All patients were continuously treated for six weeks. The scores of Herth Hope Index (HHI), Self-perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), exercise rehabilitation willingness questionnaire, Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile Ⅱ (HPLP Ⅱ), and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) were compared among the four groups before and after intervention. Results There were 53, 52, 54, and 52 patients enrolled in the control group, the Satir group, the Snyder group, and the combined group, respectively. The differences among the four groups in basic information such as sex, age, and type of stroke and the scores of the above scales before intervention were not statistically significant (P>0.05). After intervention, the total scores of HHI scale (27.65±6.34, 30.54±6.85, 32.79±7.12, 35.08±7.63), scores of exercise rehabilitation willingness (39.85±8.16, 40.52±7.93, 40.17±8.25, 43.81±7.46), total scores of HPLP Ⅱ scale (149.87±26.08, 159.32±26.73, 165.89±28.01, 173.18±28.54), and scores of positive coping style of SCSQ scale (19.65±5.08, 22.46±5.29, 25.04±4.91, 28.45±5.12) of the four groups significantly increased compared with those before intervention (P<0.05), while the total scores of SPBS scale (27.35±4.92, 23.74±5.02, 25.16±4.98, 21.49±5.27) and scores of negative coping style of SCSQ scale (4.83±1.25, 3.71±1.02, 3.94±1.08, 4.13±0.96) significantly decreased compared with those before intervention (P<0.05); the scores of HHI scale, exercise rehabilitation willingness, HPLP Ⅱ scale, and positive coping style of SCSQ scale of the combined group were higher than those of the other three groups (P<0.05), while the score of SPBS scale was lower than that of the other three groups (P<0.05). Conclusions Snyder hope theory combined with Satir model for rehabilitation therapy of young and middle-aged patients with stroke can help to improve the hope level, reduce the self-perceived burden, and improve the exercise rehabilitation willingness, health behaviors and coping styles. In addition, it is of great significance for promoting the rehabilitation of patients.
Elderly patients with chronic kidney disease not only suffer from senescence-related muscle strength decline, but also exist muscle attenuation caused by chronic kidney disease. Sarcopenia of this group are more obvious, and falls, incapacity, weakness and death caused by sarcopenia are more prominent. At present, clinicians’ understanding of sarcopenia is still in the aspects of concept popularization and basic research, and there is a lack of practical diagnosis and treatment process and clinical prevention and treatment practice. Starting from the evolution of the definition of sarcopenia, this paper elaborates on the characteristics of sarcopenia in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, as well as the exercise rehabilitation of sarcopenia in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, in order to improve the attention and understanding of renal colleagues on sarcopenia in elderly people with chronic kidney disease.
ObjectiveTo understand the maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients’ intention to exercise rehabilitation and discuss the influencing factors.MethodsFrom January to March 2019, 141 MHD patients’ intention to exercise rehabilitation was investigated by cross-sectional survey, and the influencing factors of MHD patients’ intention to exercise rehabilitation were analyzed by multiple linear stepwise regression.ResultsA total of 141 questionnaires were issued and 139 valid ones were recovered. The mean score of exercise rehabilitation intention of MHD patients was 39.99±9.29, which was in the middle and high level. Age [unstandardized partial regression coefficient (b)=−5.277, 95% confidence interval (CI) (−8.640, −1.915), P=0.002], educational level [b=2.412, 95%CI (1.161, 3.663), P<0.001], and 6-minute walking distance [b=3.526, 95%CI (0.032, 7.021), P=0.048] were the influencing factors of exercise rehabilitation intention of MHD patients.ConclusionMHD patients have high intension to exercise rehabilitation, and special attention should be paid to elderly patients and patients with low education level in clinical work to improve their intension to exercise rehabilitation.
In 2020, chronic kidney disease has become one of the top 10 causes of death in the world. More and more evidence shows that proper exercise rehabilitation is beneficial to the health of patients with chronic kidney disease, which can improve the survival rate and slow down the decline of renal function. However, existing studies have significant differences in form, intensity, duration, and specific implementation methods of sports rehabilitation, which need to be further standardized and unified. This article introduces the impact of exercise rehabilitation on patients with chronic kidney disease and the clinical application of Chinese traditional exercises in patients with chronic kidney disease, and mainly discusses the application experience of exercise rehabilitation characterized by “Three-in-one Taiji” in the Department of Nephrology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University. It aims to provide a basis for the model innovation of integrated management of chronic kidney disease in China.
Neurological damage caused by stroke is one of the main causes of motor dysfunction in patients, which brings great spiritual and economic burdens for society and families. Motor imagery is an important assisting method for the rehabilitation of patients after stroke, which is easy to learn with low cost and has great significance in improving the motor function and the quality of patient's life. This paper mainly summarizes the positive effects of motor imagery on post-stroke rehabilitation, outlines the physiological performance and theoretical model of motor imagery, the influencing factors of motor imagery, the scoring criteria of motor imagery and analyzes the shortcomings such as the few kinds of experimental subject, the subjective evaluation method and the low resolution of the experimental equipment in the process of rehabilitation of motor function in post-stroke patients. It is hopeful that patients with stroke will be more scientifically and effectively using motor imagery therapy.
Objective In order to improve the standing on the studies of Exercise Prescription (EP), a systematic review was conducted to provide reference and theory for further studies. Methods A broad computerized literature search of Medlin via Ovid, PubMed in all fields, Sport Discus, CINAHL, CAM, EMbase, EBM Cochrane Database of SR, and Web of Science was carried out till June 2008. Firstly, four categorical searches were conducted with the following keywords for searches: Exercise Prescription, Physical Fitness, Exercise Therapy, Fitness Assessment, Exercise Test and RCTs, and the searched results were checked by reviewers and duplicate results were removed. Then all titles were manually searched for potential inclusion in the review. Articles retrieved, review articles were examined for further relevant references. Results There were 318 relevant articles, however, the RCTs were only 7, and systematic review and meta-analysis were only one, respectively. Considering the importance and reference values there were 93 articles were included. 1970s was the developing age of EP; 1980s more specific EP were provided for many purposes; 1990s with the techniques developing of physical fitness, exercise therapy, fitness assessment and exercise test, EP for treating and rehabilitating more chronics and civilizing diseases were developed; 2000s the RCTs and CCTs were applied in the EP studies. Conclusions The developing of EP has close relationship with the developing of physical fitness, exercise therapy, fitness assessment, and exercise test. Although the RCTs researches in this field were limited, most of them were positive to support the advantage of EP. How to highly improve the advantages and greatly decrease the risk of EP is still valuable to study in the future.
