    This article agreed with most other articles similar to it that I have read in relation of CPM to TKR. No significant improvements were noted for patients using CPM in an IRF for a total knee replacement.

    This article is in regards to continuous passive motion after a TKR. This article includes follow up information longer term than most articles that I have found. The overall consensus appears to be the same throughout these articles.

THE EFFICACY OF TAPING FOR ROTATOR CUFF TENDINOPATHY: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND... - 0 views

  •  
    This article is one of the articles I used in a K tape in service for this rotation. I used this article as an example of evidenced based practice for my project. This systematic review focused on the efficacy of taping for pain reduction associated with rotator cuff tendinopathy. The review found 10 articles that met inclusion, exclusion, and quality standards. The review found that k-taping significantly increased pain-free range of motion in shoulder flexion and abduction, however, there is still insufficient evidence to conclusively state that k tape alone or in conjunction with other methods is effective for pain reduction in rotator cuff tendinopathy.

Evidence-Based Approach to Treating Lateral Epicondylitis Using the Occupational Adapta... - 0 views

  •  
    Lateral epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, is one of the most commonly treated diagnoses we treat in the hand clinic I am currently placed for my level II rotation. This article aims to look at treating these patients with evidence-based practice and the occupational adaptation model. The occupational adaptation model is a process of adaptively responding to occupational challenges, through internal adaptations and preparations for adaptations to future occupational challenges. As occupational therapists, this model allows us to find ways for patients to continue mastering their occupations in their own unique way. In hand therapy evaluations, for lateral epicondylitis, a major focus is discovering many biomechanical measurements such as ROM, pain, sensation, strength and components of functioning. This article tells us that we should also be incorporating the OA model and discovering the client's occupations and challenges associated with those. This allows us to incorporate some occupation-based activities into the patients' treatment plans. Hand therapists should be finding ways to incorporate the psychosocial aspect of occupational therapy with the biomechanical aspects. The author explains that studies have shown that patients receiving combination of therapeutic exercise with ADL activities demonstrated statistically significant improvements in all measured parameters (pinch strength, total active range of motion, opposition, etc,) compared to groups only receiving therapeutic exercises. There is a challenge in hand therapy to bridge the gap between mechanical expectations with the holistic, client centered care of occupational therapy. In conclusion, therapist must work to educate other practitioners and work toward a blend of occupation-based and biomechanical-based treatments when working with lateral epicondylitis patients and other hand therapy patients.

Continuous passive motion after knee replacement surgery - 0 views

  •  
    I used this systematic review for my inservice at my current fieldwork pertaining to CPM after a TKR. The findings were comparable to all other articles found stating that however CPM shows favorable results, the findings are too insignificant to state any conclusions with evidence support. I found this interesting especially in this day when EBP is so important to see that there is inconclusive data and these expensive machines are being used. The article looked at 6 specific outcomes measures pertaining to TKR post surgical.

Supporting Standers - 0 views

  •  
    This is a great article on the importance of using standers and the benefits of them as well. For children who are unable to stand on their own and require the help of a stander,they can be greatly helped by implementing the use of one regularly. Standers can have significant impact on bone development, circulation, range of motion and visual perception.
