Rheumocardiological- Rheumatism, Cardiopathies, Juvenile Polyarthritis, Exchange-diabetes 1. What are the tasks of primary & secondary physioprophylaxis (for acute respiratory infections)? 2. What is the essence of bronchopneumonia? - Bronchopneumonia is a subtype of pneumonia which is characterized by patchy consolidation involving one or more lobes; typically starts from the terminal bronchioles. 3. What are the more significant pathogenetic changes? - The alveolar macrophages release cytokines such as TNF-alpha & IL-1 in response to infectious agents or dead respiratory cells.These cytokines cause vasodilation & increase the permeability of the blood vessels surrounding the alveoli. This results in fluid shifting from the vascular space into the alveoli => alveolar congestion. 4. What is the behaviour in terms of treatment & rehabilitation? - Antibiotics & antipyretics. - Later stages ( subacute & chronic stage)=> Incorporate some physiotherapy methods such as inhalation therapy with mucolytics & breathing exercises to facilitate the breathing.Later can be done by using the upper & lower limbs to exhale against resistance to train the expiratory muscles. - Percussion drainage - Ultra-high frequency electrical current => around the area of the pneumonia 5.

What are the more significant pathogenetic changes? - Granulomas (called Aschoff bodies) form underneath the endocardial (innermost) layer of the heart & calcification of the heart valves occur. Most commonly affected valve is the mitral valve => mitral stenosis => can lead to atrial enlargement due to chronic increase in left atrial pressure, predisposing the individual to atrial fibrillation. Aschoff bodies: T hey are granulomatous structures consisting of fibrinoid change, lymphocytic infiltration, occasional plasma cells, and characteristically abnormal macrophages surrounding necrotic centres. 12. What is the behaviour in terms of treatment & rehabilitation? 13. What are the tasks of primary & secondary physio prophylaxis in rheumatic heart disease? 14. What is the essence of metabolic diseases? - Metabolic diseases occur when the body's usual metabolic processes are disrupted. An example of metabolic disease is diabetes mellitus which occurs as a result of impaired carbohydrate metabolism. Diabetes mellitus is an endocrine disease in which the body's ability to produce or respond to insulin hormone is impaired resulting in abnormal metabolism of carbohydrates & increased levels of glucose in the blood. 15. What are the more significant pathogenetic changes? => Type I or insulin dependent: Auto-immune destruction of the pancreatic beta cells which leads to decrease in insulin in the body as beta cells are responsible for the production of insulin. => Type II or insulin independent: Late onset & the body is resistant to insulin. The beta cells keep producing insulin despite the body being resistant to it. On the later stages of type II diabetes, we can include supplementation with insulin to prevent the overuse of the pancreatic cell. 16. What is the behaviour in terms of treatment & rehabilitation? - Insulin injection for type I diabetes & later stages of type II diabetes. The other treatments are specific for diabetic complications: (i) Diabetic foot=>Laser therapy to stimulate granulation; we can also use Darson-valve therapy around the edges of the wound to stimulate the granulation & we can use low frequency pulsed magnetic field to improve the microcirculation. (ii) Diabetic polyneuropathy=> More than one peripheral nerves are affected. It is sensory neuropathy so mostly the sensations are affected at the initial stages.

Usually the lower limbs. - Low frequency current (Galvanic current) in combination with Nivalin => Process is called ionophoresis. We use positive electrodes because the Nivalin is also positively charged. This helps to improve the neuro-muscular transmission. - To stimulate muscle with disorder in peripheral innervation, we need to use longer pulses (3-6 times longer pulses) because these muscles have lost their ability to accommodate ; we also need exponential shaped pulses with longer duration because their refractory period is longer than those with preserved innervation. - Kinesiotherapy => System of Kabot. A.k.a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation technique. By using diff techniques of stretching, or irritating the muscles, we are aiming to provoke stronger muscle contractions. 17.

What is the rehabilitation program for children with birth trauma of the shoulder joint?? (Only have birth trauma of the shoulder/ brachial plexus in our syllables) => The rehabilitation program for children with birth trauma of the brachial plexus include: (i) Electrostimulation using following parameters: - Exponential shape of the pulses with slowly rising fore-front. - Long pulses: 3-6 times longer compared to the duration of pulses because the muscles have a longer refractory period. - Frequency: very low (0.25 Hz upto 0.5 Hz) (ii) Electrophoresis with Nivalin => to improve the neuromuscular transmission. Nivalin is used after the 6th month of development of a child because before the 6th month we do not have forming of the motor plate of the nerve which connects the nerve & the muscle. Before 6th month of age, we use Galvanization by changing the polarity (so changing the cathodes & the anodes). (iii) Low frequency pulsed magnetic field: To decrease edema. It also helps to improve the micro-circulation. (iv) Method of Prof. Gacheva: Uses the normal physiological reflexes of the baby in order to stimulate the active movements in the affected limbs. After the child grows up & is able to do the exercises, he is supposed to => switch to method of Kabat. (iv) Local application of heat therapy such as Solux lamp to stimulate the tropics of the muscle & stimulate recovery of the peripheral nerves.

What is the prevention of recurrences & complications? (i) Brunnstrom’s movement therapy (1970): For severe neurological deficit. It emphasizes on synergistic patterns of movement that develop during the recovery from hemiplegia. It encourages the development of flexor & extensor synergies during early recovery; assuming that synergistic activation of the muscle will result in voluntary movement. (ii) Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) (Myers 1995): For moderate neurological deficit. It emphasizes on using the patient’s stronger movement patterns for strengthening the weaker motions. PNF techniques use manual stimulation & verbal instructions to induce desired movement patterns & enhance motor function. (iii) Bobath(1990): For mild neurological deficit. It aims to reduce spasticity & synergies by using inhibitory postures & movements in order to facilitate normal autonomic responses that are involved in voluntary movements. It leads to: - Reduction of spasticity. - Inhibition of primitive motor synergies. Stimulation of voluntary motor responses by facilitating techniques & positions. - Strengthening of normal autonomic responses that are involved in voluntary movement. (iv) Novel therapy which includes: - Constraint-induced movement therapy (it involves forced use of the involved upper extremity & discourages the use of the unaffected extremity). - Robot- assisted exercise training; & treadmill training with the body weight partially suspended (promotes symmetrical removal of the body weight to facilitate locomotor abilities after stroke) - Mirror therapy: Gives illusion of the affected limb moving normally. 4.
