- Avaliação interdisciplinar da diadococinesia: um estudo piloto(2017) ALBUQUERQUE, Jessica Talita da Cruz; MACEDO, Tamara Passos; FAVERO, Francis Meire; BARBOSA, Alessandra Ferreira; CAROMANO, Fátima Aparecida; VOOS, Mariana CallilABSTRACT Diadochokinesis is the ability to perform fast, repeated and alternate movements. Diadochokinesis tests can assess both speech and upper extremities. The primary objective was to present an interdisciplinary diadochokinesis assessment protocol. The secondary objectives were to compare the performance with different phonemes of the oral diadochokinesis test (/papapa/, /tatata/, /kakaka/ and /pataka/); to compare the performance with different conditions of the upper extremities diadochokinesis test (conducted with both upper extremities in a mirrored manner, only with the right upper extremity, only with the left upper extremity, with both upper extremities in an alternately manner); and to investigate possible relationships between oral and upper extremities diadochokinesis. A total of fifteen healthy adults/seniors from 40 to 70 years old participated. Data were represented by descriptive statistics. The syllable numbers in /papapa/, /tatata/, /kakaka/ and /pataka/ conditions and the numbers of movements in mirrored, right, left and alternated conditions were compared by ANOVA and correlated by Pearson test. There was no significant difference in results between the phonemes of oral diadochokinesis test (p<0.001). There was difference between the conditions assessed in the upper extremities diadochokinesis test (p<0.001). The number of repeated phonemes was correlated with the alternate performance of upper extremities. We concluded that the correlation between scores of oral and upper extremities diadochokinesis tests can be explained by the fact that motor and language programs are predominantly represented in the left hemisphere. Common/connected brain areas or motor programs in common can guide these tasks.
- Força de preensão e destreza manual na criança com Síndrome de Down(2013) PRIOSTI, Paula Aivazoglou; BLASCOVI-ASSIS, Silvana Maria; CYMROT, Raquel; VIANNA, Denise Loureiro; CAROMANO, Fátima AparecidaChildren with Down Syndrome (DS) present delays in motor skills acquisition compared to those with normal development, which may interfere in activities such as grip strength and manual dexterity. The evaluation of these activities can provide performance indicators in daily activities. The objective was to analyze the correlation between grip strength and manual dexterity in children with DS and healthy children aged 7 to 9 years old. Twenty-six children with DS, of both genders, who formed the DS Group, and 30 healthy ones, constituting the Control Group (CG) participated in this study. The grip strength evaluation was performed with the Jamar dynamometer and manual dexterity through the Box and Block Test. The DS Group presented a lower performance in both grip strength and in manual dexterity compared to CG. There was no significant correlation between grip strength and manual dexterity in the DS Group, but in the CG there was it. There was no difference in performance between genders for the items assessed in the two groups; performance on tests of grip strength and manual dexterity in the CG showed an evolution in the course of aging, in the DS Group these developments did not happen. It is concluded that differences were found in the performance of the two groups, indicating peculiar characteristics to DS. Further investigation must be done on these data, since they can contribute to the identification of objectives to be considered in stimulation programs.
- Mudança na biomecânica da postura sentada afeta a função pulmonar(2019) CONTESINI, Adriana Maria; SILVA, Thiago Henrique da; FAVERO, Francis Meire; BLASCOVI-ASSIS, Silvana Maria; VOOS, Mariana Callil; CAROMANO, Fátima AparecidaABSTRACT The objective of this study was to characterize the postures induced by two different chair-desk systems and analyze their effects on lung function. This was a cross-sectional, descriptive study of single subject with intra-series type analysis (A-B, B-A) during consecutive days of data collection. Fifteen volunteers participated using two chair-desk systems: conventional (A) and experimental (B). Postural evaluation was performed in both systems using photogrammetry. These images were analyzed using AutoCAD® 2010, estimating the average position of the joint angles of individuals in each system. These values were analyzed verifying the averages in each posture. Postural and respiratory data were compared by checking whether the different positions adopted by the participants resulted in changes in the spirometry values. Conventional chair-desk system promoted two different postural patterns, considering that one presented joint angles similar to experimental system, with similar spirometry results and the other presented body angles according to the reference of standards and spirometry results significantly lower in FEV1, FEV1/FVC and FEFmax. Experimental system differed from values of literature in standing posture only in FEFmax, suggesting similarity of postural situation. It was concluded that the experimental furniture proved a tool capable of benefiting respiratory function in sitting posture and may be an option to benefit people in special conditions such as pregnant women, obese individuals and people with chronic pulmonary diseases.

- Influence of severity of traumatic brain injury at hospital admission on clinical outcomes(2018) SILVA, Thiago Henrique da; MASSETTI, Thais; SILVA, Talita Dias da; PAIVA, Laercio da Silva; PAPA, Denise Cardoso Ribeiro; MONTEIRO, Carlos Bandeira de Mello; CAROMANO, Fatima Aparecida; VOOS, Mariana Callil; SILVA, Lucas Del SartoABSTRACT Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a public health problem with high mortality and socioeconomic repercussions. We aimed to investigate the influence of TBI severity on the length of mechanical ventilation (MV) stay and length of hospital stay and on the prevalence of tracheostomy, pneumonia, neurosurgery and death. This retrospective, observational study evaluated medical records of 67 patients with TBI admitted to Irmandade da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo. Severity was determined according to the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS): mild (13-15 points; 36 patients; 53.7%), moderate (9-12 points; 14 patients; 20.9%) or severe (3-8 points; 17 patients; 25.4%). Severe TBI patients had higher prevalence of tracheostomy, pneumonia and neurosurgery. No significant differences were observed between TBI severity, mortality and length of MV stay. However, TBI severity influenced the length of hospital stay. TBI severity at admission, evaluated according to the GCS, influenced the prevalence of tracheostomy, pneumonia, neurosurgery and was associated to prolonged hospital stay.
- The influence of educational status on motor performance and learning: a literature review(2014) VOOS, Mariana Callil; MANSUR, Letícia Lessa; CAROMANO, Fátima Aparecida; BRUCKI, Sonia Maria Dozzi; VALLE, Luiz Eduardo Ribeiro doMany studies have shown the impact of the educational status on cognitive and motor control. However, few studies in the area of Physical Therapy and Motor Behavior consider the educational status of the subjects. This study aimed to describe evidences about the influence of the educational status on motor behavior (and its repercussions on physiotherapeutic assessment) and on motor learning (and its repercussions on physiotherapeutic treatment). We included in this review national and international studies from 1998 to 2013 from SciELO, MEDLINE and LILACS databases. We used the keywords: educational status, schooling level, motor control, motor behavior, motor performance, and motor learning. Sixty studies were located and 28 were selected, because they followed the inclusion criteria: (1) to investigate the effect of education on motor performance; (2) be available in Portuguese or English; and (3) be available in Brazil. The review showed that the educational status of patients must be considered by the physiotherapists in experimental and clinical practice, because many studies have shown its influence on assessment and treatment of young and older adults.
- O uso de filme didático como recurso no ensino-aprendizagem da técnica de massagem miofascial(2018) CACHONI, Luiz Francisco; ANEQUINI, Isabela Pessa; VOOS, Mariana Callil; FAVERO, Francis Meire; FARCIC, Thiago Saikali; CAROMANO, Fátima AparecidaABSTRACT The effect of demonstrations and instructions using a movie as complement in the teaching-learning process of technical skills of myofascial massage was evaluated (MM). This is an experimental, double-blind study, with the participation of a physical therapist professor and 60 physical therapists who took the MM course (blind to the objective of the study). The course lasted for 15 classes, using the Massoterapia Clínica book and lectures for group A (n=30). The same material and a didactic movie were proposed for group B (n=30). The book describes and illustrates the maneuvers and the movie demonstrates them in a practical way. At the end of the course, a treatment simulation was filmed and evaluated, then repeated after two months to verify retention. Participants answered a questionnaire on their satisfaction with the course. The footage was assessed by two physical therapists. The aspects evaluated were: pressure, patient positioning, physical therapist positioning, number of maneuvers per muscle, location, direction of the maneuvers, number of repetitions of the maneuvers and the hand segment used. Each item was scored as 1: Totally inadequate technique; 2: Technique with great failure; 3: Technique with small failure; 4: Satisfactory technique; and 5: Completely adequate technique. Results: Intraclass correlation analysis confirmed data reliability and showed differences between groups in the ability of applying MM, with better learning and retention by group B (p<0.05). In addition, the use of a movie reduced the duration of classes by one-third. It was concluded that the movie instructions completed traditional resources with advantages for learning and retention.
