Breast carcinoma is one of the most serious illnesses in females and a significant because of mortality and morbidity. A variety of treatment programs has now been developed to help with the restoration of shoulder movement while also lowering the occurrence of subsequent lymphedema.Modified radical mastectomy has several advantages, including local cancer management and a lower chance of cancer recurrence, as well as the preservation of the chest muscles, which prevents deformity and allows patients to undergo breast reconstruction. Lymphedema can cause cosmetic issues, functional difficulties, and psychological anguish in breast cancer patients, all of which can reduce the quality of life. Females who receive quick breast reconstruction have a lower risk of depression and have a higher standard of life. For females who have had breast cancer, physiotherapy can assist to reduce pain, restore shoulder mobility, and enhance the quality of life.
Introduction: "Goniometry" is derived from two Greek words: Gonia, which means "angle," and Metron, which means "measure." The focus of the research is to see if a smartphone-based goniometer application for knee flexion range of motion was reliable. The technology of smartphones is one of the most often used alternatives. A literature evaluation of 12 studies showed that smartphone applications are sufficiently trustworthy to be employed in research and clinical practice. As ROM angulation is widely employed in treatment policy decisions, new measures have to be thoroughly tested before use in clinical practice. The study design used will be an observational study. The participants will be recruited using a simple random sampling method. The total number of participants will be 100 in the age group between 20-60. With Universal Goniometer and Goniometer records, three certified physiotherapists measured maximum active knee flexion in a supine position. Data will be collected and analyzed using SPSS (version: 20) and the Bland Altman Test.Discussion: The goal of this observational study is to examine the reliability of smartphone applications for computing knee joint range of motion.Conclusion: To conclude, this research seeks to examine the reliability of smartphone applications for computing knee joint range of motion in a healthy population. The study findings would help in developing a novel approach for computing and documenting the knee range of motion.
Stroke patients have limited everyday tasks. For that videogame-based training (VBT) with the effect of virtual reality helps to improve the role of upper limb and motor function of hand rehabilitation (finger pinch grip). The Leap motion controller can track the both extremities (hand and fingers) fine movements. The study will demonstrate the impact of the leap motion controller on pinch grip in patient with sub-acute and chronic stroke. The total of 40 participants will be taken for study as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. The duration of the study will be six months with intervention. Leap motion -based, augmented reality training will be provided to patients for half hour, Every single day, 5days of the week a month. Formant’s sign and system usability scale will be taken. Those two will be the patient’s measure outcomes. Impact of the leap motion controller device will be evaluated by using the system usability scale and Formant’s sign. The result from the study will significantly provide evidence on the use of Leap motion controller on pinch grip in subacute and chronic stroke patient.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
