Öğe The effects of manual therapy and exercises on pain, muscle strength, joint health, functionality and quality of life in haemophilic arthropathy of the elbow joint: A randomized controlled pilot study(Wiley, 2021) Tat, Ayse Merve; Can, Filiz; Tat, Necati Muhammed; Sasmaz, Hatice Ilgen; Antmen, Ali BulentIntroduction: Effective physiotherapy interventions are required for haemophilic arthropathy (HA) of the elbow due to its biomechanical differences and contribution to upper limb functionality. Aim: To investigate the effects of manual therapy & exercises on bleeding frequency, pain, range of motion (ROM), strength, joint health, functionality and quality of life (QoL) in HA of the elbow. Methods: Seventeen participants with HA of the elbow were randomized as Manual Therapy & Exercises Group (MTEG = 9) and Home Exercises Group (HEG = 8). Soft tissue mobilization, joint traction (grade I-II) and Mulligan's mobilization with movement as manual therapy, and stretching/strengthening exercises were applied to MTEG, while HEG had only same exercises as home programme. The interventions lasted 3 days/weekly for 5 weeks. Bleeding frequency was evaluated with patients' records; pain with Numeric Pain Scale; ROM with goniometer; strength with digital dynamometer; joint health with HJHS; functionality with Quick-Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire; and QoL with Oxford Elbow Score. Results: Bleeding frequency and activity pain were decreased, while elbow ROMs and flexor strength were increased in MTEG (P < 0.05). Also significantly improvements were seen in joint health, functionality and QoL in MTEG. HEG showed improvements in activity pain, QoL and some ROMs. MTEG had better results in ROMs, joint health and functionality (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Manual therapy & exercises may be used without causing bleeding and pain to increase the functionality, joint health and QoL, and is superior to home exercise for joint health and functionality. Home exercises may be ameliorated in pain, QoL and some ROMs.Öğe The effects of manual therapy on musculoskeletal system, functional level, joint health and kinesiophobia in young adults with severe haemophilia: A randomized pilot study(Wiley, 2021) Tat, Necati Muhammed; Can, Filiz; Sasmaz, Hatice Ilgen; Tat, Ayse Merve; Antmen, Ali BulentIntroduction The effects of manual therapy (MT) on joint health and functional level in haemophilic arthropathy (HA) have relatively under-explored. Aim To investigate the effects of MT in HA of lower limb joints on musculoskeletal system, functional level, Functional Independence Score in Hemophilia (FISH), Hemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS) and kinesiophobia. Methods Seventeen patients were randomized to the control group (CG = 9) and manual therapy group (MTG = 8). The number of haemarthrosis (NoH) was recorded from the diaries. Range of motion (ROM), strength and pain intensity were measured using goniometer, digital dynamometer and visual analogue scale, respectively. Joint health was evaluated with HJHS, functional independence with FISH, and kinesiophobia with Tampa Scale. Functional Reach (FR), Timed Up-Go (TUG) and 5-Times Sit-to-Stand (5*STS) tests were used to evaluate functional level. Home exercises were given to both groups. Additionally, myofascial release techniques and mobilizations were applied to MTG. Interventions were applied 3 d/weekly for 5 weeks. Assessments were performed at baseline and after treatment. Results ROM, strength, activity pain, HJHS and FISH were improved in MTG (p<0.05). Ankle NoH, 5*STS and FR were developed in both groups (p<0.05), but kinesiophobia, TUG and knee NoH were not significant. Although improvements were observed in favour of MTG in HJHS, FR, activity pain and ankle strength/ROM (p<0.05), no significant difference was found in FISH, kinesiophobia, TUG, 5*STS, resting pain and knee strength. Conclusion Reduction in ankle NoH indicated that both interventions were safe. The use of MT in HA of lower limb joints was an effective physiotherapy approach to improve functional level, joint health and functional independence.
