IPD patients rehabilitation at OPD

1. BENEFITS OF DEPARTMENTAL
PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR THE
ADMITTED PATIENTS
Dr. Mohabbat Ali

2. PHYSIOTHERAPY
 Physiotherapy can be defined as a treatment method that focuses
on the science of movement and helps people to restore, maintain
and maximize their physical strength, function, motion and overall
well-being by addressing the underlying physical issues.
 It is used to improve a patient's quality of life through examination,
diagnosis, prognosis and physical intervention

3. SCOPE OF PHYSIOTHERAPY IN OPD
 Pain management
 Peads rehabilitation
 Women health
 Cardiac rehabilitation
 Urinary incontinence
 Neuro rehabilitation
 Ortho rehabilitation
 Plastic surgery

4. SCOPE OF PHYSIOTHERAPY
IN OPD SPECIALITY WISE

5. CARDIOLOGY/ CARDIAC SURGERY:
Cardiac rehabilitation is useful for the patients who are at risk of heart problems ,
who are go through from the procedure of angiography , angioplasty , CABG or other
cardio vascular procedures. TREADMILLAND RECUMBENT is useful in cardiac
first and second phase with monitoring
NEUROLOGY / NEUROSURGERY:
Tilt table
Thera trainer
Recumbent

6. PEADS
Peads rehabilitation is useful for the abnormality in child or any developmental
delayed in children. Tilt table , recumbent , parallel bars are useful for increase
muscle strength, improve gait pattern
NEPHROLOGY
Patients who are suffering from kidney disease have edematous extremities in which
intermittent pneumatic compressor is helpful to decrease edema

7.  ONCOLOGY
Patients who are suffering from carcinoma or any malignant diseases, in the period of
chemotherapy , muscle strength and endurance decreases in which gym activity like
pulley exercise , recumbent boost patient physically and psychologically
 ORTHOPAEDIC
Electrotherapy is helpful for the patients in conservative management for joints and
ligaments problems. Furthermore, in post operative patients it can also apply and
parallel bars are better option for mobilization with good posture and gait pattern

8. SCOPE OF PHYSIOTHERAPY IN IN-
PATEINT DEPARTMENT
 Early ICU patients mobility
 Patients at risk of nosocomial infections
 Immuno-compromised patients
 Geriatric patients
 Palliative care patients
 Patients under gone general or local anesthesia

9. SERVICES PROVIDED IN THE
PHYSIOTHERAPY DEPARTMENT

10. INTERMITTENT PNEUMATIC COMPRESSION
 Intermittent pneumatic compression
is a therapeutic technique used in
medical devices that include an air
pump and inflatable auxiliary sleeves,
gloves or boots in a system designed
to improve venous circulation in the
limbs of patients who suffer edema or
the risk of deep vein thrombosis
(DVT) or pulmonary embolism

11. BENEFITS OF IPC
 Peripheral artery disease/arterial insufficiency
 Restless leg syndrome
 Management of edema following femoro-popliteal bypass surgery
 Rehabilitation for distal radial fracture
 Fracture and soft tissue healing
 Treatment of sensory impairment in the upper limb following a stroke
 Treatment of upper extremity vascular ulcers
 Edema related to obesity

12. TRACTION THERAPY
Spinal traction done for therapeutic purposes
comprises of either manually or
mechanically created forces in order to
stretch and mobilize the spine. Spinal
traction helps in relieving back pain by
stretching the tight muscles of the spine
which result from spasm. Spinal traction also
helps widen the inter vertebral foramen so
that the nerve root impingement is relieved
thus relieving back pain and radiating pain.

13. BENEFITS OF SPINAL TRACTION
 Distraction to increase the intervertebral space
 Tensing of the posterior longitudinal vertebral ligament
 Suction to draw the disc protrusion towards the centre of the joint

14. RECUMBENT BICYCLE
 Cardiovascular Exercise
 Increased Strength and Weight
Management
 Safety and Comfort
 Less Stress on Knee and Hip

15. Tilt table
 Reintroduce patient to vertical
position.
 Facilitate early weight bearing
 Promote and maintain bone
density in lower extremity
 Prevent muscle contracture
 Improves lower limb strength

16. TILT TABLE
Increase arousal
Improves cardiovascular
conditions
Allow to become
acclimated to an upright
position without rapid
change in blood pressure
Decrease spasticity

17.  Prevention of osteoporosis and pathological fractures.
 Postural improvements
 Enhance bladder and bowl function
 Provide early weight bearing experiences for patients too weak to stand on their own.
 Decrease prolong bed rest complications
 Improves psychological out look and also motivates
 Patient to participate ambulation program

18. SHOULDER PULLEY
 Decrease pain in the shoulder and arm
 Improve shoulder strength
 Improve range of motion (ROM)
 Maintain proper posture
 Regain normal function of your arm

19. TREADMILL
 The treadmill is a relatively easy piece of
exercise equipment to use
 The treadmill has a predictable surface that is
much easier to negotiate than sidewalks,
curbs or trails and the risk of tripping is
reduced
 All aspects of the workout can be controlled
by the user: speed, incline, warm up period,
cool down period, and energy spend
 Generally, users can design custom programs
to fit the time they have to exercise

20. TREADMILL
 Multiple users can use the same equipment without adjusting the
structure
 Some treadmills have special features such as step counters and
heart rate monitors so fitness progress can be tracked
 Running on a treadmill generally burns calories faster than most
other forms of in-home exercise, such as biking

21. ▄ Users can do other things while on the treadmill, such as watch
television or read, which for many can help keep the exercise
interesting

22. ELECTROTHERAPY
 Pain management
 Treatment of neuromuscular
dysfunction
 Improvement of strength
 Improvement of motor control
 Retards muscle atrophy
 Improvement of local blood flow
 Improves range of joint mobility
 Tissue repair
 Acute and chronic edema

23.  Peripheral blood flow
 Iontophoresis
 Urine and fecal
incontinence
 Lymphatic drainage

24. PARALLEL BARS
 Regain strength
 Balance
 Range of motion
 Independence

25. PARALLEL BARS
 Coordination exercises, typically resulting
from the stroke and brain trauma
 Improves patients ability to walk
independently or with assistance.
 Conditioning of the heart and lung function
 Gait training with assistance

26. THERA TRAINER
 The THERA-Trainer enables people with
individual requirements to exercise their legs or
upper body with or without motorized
assistance - from their chair or wheelchair. It
gently encourages mobility and has a positive
effect on many other aspects of health.

27. ADVANTAGES OF THERA TRAINER
 THERA-Trainer helps people who, for a variety of reasons, no longer have
sufficient mobility.
 To remain physically and mentally active and to counter the effects of lack of
exercise,
 Regular movement exercising maintains and restores strength, mobility, endurance
 at home – where you feel comfortable.
 by yourself – in many cases you won’t need any help.

28.  from your armchair or wheelchair – without the need to change location
 with or without muscle power – exactly as it suits you.
 for as long as you wish and for as long as it is beneficial – you decide.
 whenever and as frequently as you wish – depending on your daily schedule
 This movement exerciser allows effective exercise in all phases of
rehabilitation.
