Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of polio that occur decades after the disease has run its course--weakness, fatigue, pain, intolerance to cold, difficulty with breathing and swallowing--are often more devastating than the original disease. This book on the diagnosis and management of polio-related health problems is an essential resource for polio survivors and their families and health care providers. Dr. Julie K. Silver, who has both personal and professional experience with post-polio syndrome, begins the book by defining and describing PPS and providing a historical overview of its diagnosis and treatment. Chapters that follow discuss finding good medical care, dealing with symptoms, maintaining proper nutrition and weight, preventing osteoporosis and falls, and sustaining mobility. Dr. Silver reviews the latest in braces, shoes, assistive devices, and wheelchairs and scooters. She also explores issues involving managing pain, surgery, complementary and alternative medicine, safe and comfortable living environments, insurance and disability, and sex and intimacy.

Download or read book Physical Therapy Treatment for a Patient with Postpolio Syndrome and History of Falls written by Stephanie L. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A patient with lower extremity weakness and a history of polio exacerbations was seen for physical therapy for eight sessions at an outpatient physical therapy clinic. Treatment was provided by a student physical therapist under the supervision of a licensed physical therapist. The patient was examined at the initial encounter with Manual Muscle Tests, Dynamic Gait Index, Patient Specific Functional Scale, Push and Release Test, Timed Up and Go, and a plan of care was established. Main goals for the patient were to improve strength and motor control in lower extremities, functional mobility, allow participation in the care of his spouse, improve his overall balance and reduce fall risk. Main interventions were lower extremity strengthening and coordination training, balance training, task-specific training, and compensatory strategy considerations. The patient improved his functional mobility, reported subjective improvements in his balance, and partially met strengthening goals. The patient continued with his home exercise program and awaited approval of additional physical therapy visits from his insurance before he resumed his plan of care several weeks later under the care of the supervising physical therapist.

Book excerpt: Post-polio syndrome (PPS) embodies the new neuromuscular symptoms that patients with prior paralytic poliomyelitis develop after a stable course from 20 to 40 years. These include new muscle weakness, fatigue, muscular atrophy, muscle pain and various secondary muscular complaints. Fundamental questions regarding the neurobiology of the motor neurones previously affected by the poliovirus, the ongoing changes of the reinnervating process, and the potential role of the poliovirus in generating a chronic immune stimulation or viral persistence are discussed in this volume. Data from the neurological, immunological, virological, electrophysiological and rehabilitational fields is presented, shedding light on the pathogenesis of post-polio syndrome, as well as that of other motor neurone diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
