[Purpose] Older patients with cardiovascular disease should increase their physical activity and prioritize positive psychological and social approaches in the maintenance phase of their cardiac rehabilitation. This study aimed to clarify the effect of small community walking on physical activity, well-being, and social capital in older patients with cardiovascular disease in the maintenance phase. [Participants and Methods] We conducted a multicenter study in Kumamoto, Japan. We randomly divided 55 patients with cardiovascular disease into two groups: small community walking and walking alone. For three months, a registered cardiac rehabilitation instructor provided walking guidance to both groups using a wearable device. We measured physical activity, social capital, and subjective happiness before and after the intervention. [Results] Results revealed a statistically significant main effect of time on physical activity and social participation. In the subjective happiness scale, there was an association between group and time. [Conclusion] Our results suggest that walking guidance using a wearable device was beneficial in improving overall physical activity, regardless of whether the individual did small community walking or walking alone. Furthermore, small community walking intervention may effectively enhance well-being. The relationship between physical activity and social participation needs to be further investigated. - Derivation of a screening tool for predicting the risk of falls in community-dwelling older adults with knee osteoarthritis

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to cross-validate a previously developed knee osteoarthritis falls (KOAF) screening tool to distinguish between fallers and nonfallers among community-dwelling older adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA). DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey study. SETTING: Three independent orthopedic clinics. PARTICIPANTS: Older outpatients with knee OA (N=86; 71 women, 15 men; mean age, 75.2±6.2y). INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was to identify fallers and nonfallers among outpatients with OA based on their history of falls within the past year. We investigated factors including sex, age, body mass index, Kellgren-Lawrence grade, affected side (bilateral or unilateral knee OA), number of comorbidities, pharmacotherapy, physical therapy, pain, and activity as individual predictors of falls. Participants performed the one-leg standing test and the 5 times sit-to-stand test to determine motor function. Sensitivity, specificity, likelihood ratio, and post-test probability of the KOAF screening tool were calculated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS: The results of the one-leg standing test and 5 times sit-to-stand test differed significantly between the 2 groups (P<.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve was 0.88 (95% confidence interval, 0.80-0.96; P<.001). The post-test probability of falls was 83.3% (positive likelihood ratio, 11.54) when the total score of KOAF screening tool was 2 points and 2.6% (negative likelihood ratio, 0.06) when the total score of KOAF screening tool was less than 1 point. CONCLUSIONS: Cross-validation results for the KOAF screening tool were better, confirming that the screening tool could distinguish between fallers and nonfallers with high accuracy. Our findings suggest that this simple screening tool could be readily used in clinical practice and could aid in clinical decision-making through providing choices for physical therapy evaluation and recommendations for physical therapy programs. - Factors characterizing gait performance of patients before and soon after knee arthroplasty.

[Purpose] For monitoring patients with knee osteoarthritis undergoing knee arthroplasty, the Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed tests are commonly used. To provide appropriate peri-surgical rehabilitation, we evaluated the factors associated with postsurgical changes in Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed results. [Participants and Methods] We enrolled 545 knee osteoarthritis patients undergoing either of the following knee arthroplasties: conventional total knee arthroplasty, minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty, and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. Comfortable Timed Up and Go, maximum Timed Up and Go, and maximum walking speed were measured 2 weeks before and soon after surgery. Factors (gender, age, and surgical mode) that might influence changes in test results were evaluated by multiple regression analysis and a two-factor stratification diagram. [Results] Multiple regression analysis revealed that postsurgical changes in comfortable/maximum Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed results were associated with age and surgical mode after adjustment for preoperative values. Two-factor diagrams showed that the older the patient, the greater was the slowdown in the Timed Up and Go test performed postoperatively. The levels of slowdown in the postoperative Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed tests were the smallest in those who underwent conventional total knee arthroplasty, followed by those who underwent minimally invasive and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. Among patients whose preoperative Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed were slow, slowdown in Timed Up and Go was pronounced with age, and slowdown in maximum walking speed was higher in conventional total knee arthroplasty. [Conclusion] The changes in Timed Up and Go and maximum walking speed results 2 weeks after knee arthroplasty depended on age and surgical modes. These findings are relevant for the implementation of appropriate peri-surgical rehabilitation. - Research for construction of gait abnormality evaluation based on observation in patients with knee osteoarthritis: item characteristics, factor validity, concurrent validity and inter-rater reliability

BACKGROUND: In patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) undergoing knee arthroplasty (KA), lower-limb motor function tests are commonly measured during peri-surgical rehabilitation. To clarify their sources of variation and determine reference intervals (RIs), a multicenter study was performed in Japan. METHODS: We enrolled 545 KOA patients (127 men; 418 women; mean age 74.2 years) who underwent KA and followed a normal recovery course. The surgical modes included total KA (TKA), minimally invasive TKA (MIS-TKA), and unicompartmental KA (UKA). Motor functions measured twice before and two weeks after surgery included timed up-and-go (TUG), maximum walking speed (MWS), extensor and flexor muscle strength (MS), and knee range of motion (ROM). Multiple regression analysis was performed to evaluate their sources of variation including sex, age, BMI, and surgical mode. Magnitude of between-subgroup differences was expressed as SD ratio (SDR) based on 3-level nested ANOVA. SDR≥0.4 was set as the threshold for requiring RIs specific for each subgroup. RESULTS: Before surgery, age-related changes exceeding the threshold were observed for TUG and MWS. Between-sex difference was noted for extensor and flexor MS, but extension and flexion ROMs were not influenced by sex or age. After surgery, in addition to similar influences of sex and age on test results, surgical modes of UKA and MIS-TKA generally had a favorable influence on MWS, extensor MS, and flexion ROM. All motor function test results showed a variable degree of skewness in distribution, and thus RIs were basically derived by the parametric method after Gaussian transformation of test results. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to determine RIs for knee motor functions specific to KOA patients after careful consideration of their sources of variation and distribution shapes. These RIs facilitate objective implementation of peri-surgical rehabilitation and allow detection of patients who deviate from the normal course of recovery. - Self-reported physical activity is related to knee muscle strength on the unaffected side and walking ability in patients with knee osteoarthritis awaiting total knee arthroplasty: a cross-sectional study

Journal of the Japanese Physical Therapy Association, 2013
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of supported and unsupported arm exercise on the 2 dyspnea indexes, namely, airway occlusion pressure (P0.1) and the ratio of the change in ventilation to the change in P0.1 (ΔVE/ΔP0.1), by using symptom-limited exercise stress testing. Methods: Twenty-one healthy male volunteers performed both these exercises with 3 increments(stage 1 to 3) in oxygen consumption, defined as exercise intensity. Each stage was performed at the same intensity between the 2 exercises, to aid in the comparison. The P0.1, VE, carbon dioxide production (VCO2), respiratory frequency (f), ventilatory equivalent of carbon dioxide (VE/VCO2) and the Borg scale rating of perceived dyspnea and arm muscle exertion was obtained at each stage. Results: The P0.1 was significantly greater in the unsupported arm exercise than in the supported arm exercise (P <0.001); however, there was no difference in ΔVE/ΔP0.1 between the 2 exercises. With higher load, the corresponding VE, VCO2, f, VE/VCO2 and the Borg scale rating of perceived dyspnea were significantly greater in the unsupported arm exercise than in the supported arm exercise. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that there is a greater possibility of developing dyspnea during an unsupported arm exercise than during a supported arm exercise, possibly because of the greater ventilatory demand in the former. - Evaluation of the Inter-rater Reliability of a Modified Gait Abnormality Rating Scale for Elderly Individuals in Japan Using Video Monitoring

To find effective joint moments on walking with high speed, we measured joint moments in lower limbs for seven subjects during walking with different speed. Each subject walked on 7 m walking way with to types of walking speeds ranged from 30 to l40 m/min. We regarded each peak value of joint moments and walking speed as variables and calculated correlation coefficients among variables. As a result, linear relationships were recognized between walking speed and all peak values of joint moment except peak value of knee flexion moment during terminal stance.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of supported and unsupported arm exercise on the 2 dyspnea indexes, namely, airway occlusion pressure (P0.1) and the ratio of the change in ventilation to the change in P0.1 (ΔVE/ΔP0.1), by using symptom-limited exercise stress testing. Methods: Twenty-one healthy male volunteers performed both these exercises with 3 increments(stage 1 to 3) in oxygen consumption, defined as exercise intensity. Each stage was performed at the same intensity between the 2 exercises, to aid in the comparison. The P0.1, VE, carbon dioxide production (VCO2), respiratory frequency (f), ventilatory equivalent of carbon dioxide (VE/VCO2) and the Borg scale rating of perceived dyspnea and arm muscle exertion was obtained at each stage. Results: The P0.1 was significantly greater in the unsupported arm exercise than in the supported arm exercise (P <0.001); however, there was no difference in ΔVE/ΔP0.1 between the 2 exercises. With higher load, the corresponding VE, VCO2, f, VE/VCO2 and the Borg scale rating of perceived dyspnea were significantly greater in the unsupported arm exercise than in the supported arm exercise. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that there is a greater possibility of developing dyspnea during an unsupported arm exercise than during a supported arm exercise, possibly because of the greater ventilatory demand in the former. - Evaluation of the Inter-rater Reliability of a Modified Gait Abnormality Rating Scale for Elderly Individuals in Japan Using Video Monitoring

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the inter-rater reliability of a modified version of the gait abnormality rating scale (GARS-M). Methods: The GARS-M was thoroughly translated into Japanese. Outpatients aged ≥ 65 years were included. The subjects were made to walk for a short distance (7.6 m), and the entire walk was videotaped. Three physical therapists retrospectively viewed these recordings and rated the gait of each subject according to the GARS-M. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for the obtained scores was calculated to evaluate inter-rater reliability. Results: A total of 26 elderly individuals Twenty-six older persons (17 men, 73.9 ± 5.8 years) participated were rated. , and the calculated The ICC was 0.83. Conclusion: The Japanese version of the GARS-M has an acceptable inter-rater reliability and can prove beneficial for evaluating the gait of elderly individuals in Japan. - 運動器理学療法の古今東西と理学療法診断学
