“…The most commonly used methods to improve posture according to Liška are Yoga and Pilates. Other rehabilitation methods may be used to improve other musculoskeletal problems (37). To improve posture, we suggest that the competent authorities (such as doctors, psychotherapeutists, trainers, teachers) develop videos with corrective gymnastic that could be applied in the form of telerehabilitation in the home environment.…”

INTRODUCTION: This study was aimed to estimate the effect of one-year persistence of COVID-19 antipandemic measures on the posture and spine in children of younger school age in Slovakia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 135 children aged between 6 and 9 years participated in this study. The examination of posture and spine was carried out in 4 schools in 4 different districts in Slovakia. The posture was evaluated in February 2020, before anti-pandemic restrictions and in period from May 2021, after one year of anti-pandemic restrictions. Modifi ed methodology according to Napoleon Wolanski was used to evaluate the posture. RESULTS: For the entire study group, the mean posture disorder level score before anti-pandemic restrictions was 5.667 (±1.75) and it rose to 7.844 (±0.64). Prevalence of posture disorders rose from 71.11 % to 91.3 % in the study group. The most affected segments were lumbar spine and pelvis, followed by deformities of the thoracis spinae. The mean pathology level score for entire group in these segments rose as followed: in the lumbar spine from 0.6 (± 0.61) to 1.022 (± 0.75); in the pelvis from 0.444 (± 0.54) to 0.772 (± 0.73) and in the thoracis spine from 0.378 (± 0.53) to 0.578 (± 0.61). CONCLUSION: Study confi rmed a worsening of the posture and spine in school children after a one year of strict anti-pandemic measures. As postural changes increased by 20 % during the year, it seems necessary to implement appropriate preventives programs for children, which could have the potential to improve their postural state (Tab. 2, Fig. 1, Ref. 37).

“…18 Although there is currently limited evidence for the management of PACC, there is increasing international recognition that rehabilitation, including specialized exercise prescription, is likely to be a key component of care for this condition. 24,[27][28][29] There are some key challenges around prescribing exercise and physical activity to people post-COVID-19 infection, particularly those with more severe disease. Some of the complications of COVID-19 include cardiac and autonomic dysfunction and desaturation on exercise.…”

“…28,31,34 In the clinical guideline, an emphasis was put on proper evaluation of oxygen levels and status, again, highlighting the importance of vital monitoring across all settings. 34 A stronger emphasis was put on pulmonary-based interventions in the postacute settings, 28,31,34 likely secondary to the acuity of disease in the patient population being treated. These recommendations should be closely evaluated by outpatient physical therapists to determine whether patients will require extensive pulmonary-based interventions as mentioned in postacute articles.…”

This study was deemed exempt by the Midwestern University, Institute Review Board, therefore written informed consent was not gathered. Purpose:The devasting effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have warranted the rapid development of evidence surrounding the physical therapy (PT) management of the disease within inpatient settings. However, the medical community is still working to define the long-term effects of COVID-19, referred to as Postacute Sequalae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), and ways for physical therapists to manage them in outpatient settings. The primary objective of this review was to summarize the available evidence related to the PT management of PASC in outpatient settings. Methods: A systematic search in PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Cochrane CENTRAL, Academic Search Complete, and MedLine yielded systematic and scoping reviews and randomized controlled trials, among others. Data extraction was performed independently by 2 reviewers with 8 studies included. Results: Only 3 publications were specific to the outpatient setting area, with 5 more studies that focused on outpatient practice as part of a multisetting study, or the postacute setting. Although the limited number and quality of publications creates challenges applying the interventions provided across a population, each were specific to PASC. Conclusions: This review supports the need for further research focused on the PT management of patients who are experiencing PASC in outpatient settings.
