Initially 675 articles were found regarding postoperative physiotherapy after open TMJ surgery. 6 articles were included after screening. Patients who received postoperative physiotherapy had significantly larger increases in maximum mouth opening compared to those without physiotherapy. Pain levels were also lower with physiotherapy. The authors conclude that physiotherapy plays an important role in achieving good postoperative results and provide a 3-step program for its effective use.

Introduction
Clinicians often witness impressive treatment
results in practice and may wish to pursue
research to formally explore their anecdotal
experiences. The potential to further new
knowledge both within the profession and to the
greater healthcare system is compelling. An
obvious next step for a practitioner considering
research is to connect with experienced
researchers to convey their idea for a study, who
may in turn ask, “What is your research
question?” With limited understanding of how to
respond, this interaction may result in the first
and last experience these clinicians will have with
the research community.
It has been estimated that between 1% and 7% of
the chiropractic profession in Canada is engaged
in research. Arguably, this low engagement
could be the result of practitioners’ perceived
importance of research and levels of research
literacy and capacity. However, increasing
demands for evidence-based approaches across
the health system puts pressure on all clinicians to
base their decisions on the best available
scientific evidence. Lack of clinician
representation in research has the probable effect
of limiting growth and new developments for the
profession. Furthermore, lack of clinician
involvement in research complicates the transfer
of study findings into practical settings.
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research
describes integrated knowledge translation as a
process that involves collaboration between
researchers and knowledge users at all stages of a
research project. This necessitates involvement
of clinicians to help in forming a research
question, interpreting the results, and moving
research findings into practice. This shared effort
between clinicians and researchers increases the
likelihood that research initiatives will be relevant
to practice. Conversely, it has been reported that
there is a growing communication gap between
clinicians and academics in chiropractic.
Clinicians have important practice-related
questions to ask, but many may lack the ability to
map out their research strategy, specifically in
communicating their question in a manner
required to develop a research protocol.
David L. Sackett, Officer of the Order of Canada
and the founding Chair of Canada’s first
Department of Clinical Epidemiology &
Biostatistics at McMaster University, highlights
the importance of mapping one’s research

Rotator cuff muscles are functionally active and provide stability to the shoulder joint and also thereby allow the full Range of Motion (ROM) by moving the head of humerus in the glenoid cavity. Any tear or fragility of the rotator cuff muscles can cause the dislocation or instability and hence damaging other muscles specially the long head of biceps muscle. The diseases related to the supraspinatus tendon are frequently linked with the long head of the biceps tendon. Other cause of chronic shoulder pain is the adhesive capsulitis with large prevalence rates of more than 5.3% in the general target population [3].

Long-Term Effect of Exercise Therapy
and Patient Education on Impairments
and Activity Limitations in People
With Hip Osteoarthritis: Secondary
Outcome Analysis of a Randomized
Clinical Trial
Ida Svege, Linda Fernandes, Lars Nordsletten, Inger Holm, May Arna Risberg
Background. The effect of exercise on specific impairments and activity limitations in
people with hip osteoarthritis (OA) is limited.
Objective. The study objective was to evaluate the long-term effect of exercise therapy and
patient education on range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, physical fitness, walking
capacity, and pain during walking in people with hip OA.
Design. This was a secondary outcome analysis of a randomized clinical trial.
Setting. The setting was a university hospital.
Participants. One hundred nine people with clinically and radiographically evident hip
OA were randomly allocated to receive both exercise therapy and patient education (exercise
group) or patient education only (control group).
Intervention. All participants attended a patient education program consisting of 3 group
meetings led by 2 physical therapists. Two other physical therapists were responsible for
providing the exercise therapy program, consisting of 2 or 3 weekly sessions of strengthening,
functional, and stretching exercises over 12 weeks. Both interventions were conducted at a
sports medicine clinic.
Measurements. Outcome measures included ROM, isokinetic muscle strength, predicted
maximal oxygen consumption determined with the Astrand bicycle ergometer test, and
distance and pain during the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). Follow-up assessments were
conducted 4, 10, and 29 months after enrollment by 5 physical therapists who were unaware
of group allocations.
Results. No significant group differences were found for ROM, muscle strength, predicted
maximal oxygen consumption, or distance during the 6MWT over the follow-up period, but
the exercise group had less pain during the 6MWT than the control group at 10 months (mean
difference��8.5 mm; 95% confidence interval��16.1, �0.9) and 29 months (mean differ-
ence��9.3 mm; 95% confidence interval��18.1, �0.6).
Limitations. Limitations of the study were reduced statistical power and 53% rate of
adherence to the exercise therapy program.
Conclusions. The previously described effect of exercise on self-reported function was
not reflected by beneficial results for ROM, muscle strength, physical fitness, and walking
capacity, but exercise in addition to patient education resulted in less pain during walking in
the long term.

MEMORANDUM DATE- TO- Tundra Medical System Surgeon and Anesthesi.docxharrym15
MEMORANDUM DATE: TO: Tundra Medical System Surgeon and Anesthesia Champions FROM: Name, Director of Strategic Initiatives SUBJECT: Improving the Surgical Quality Journey with an ERAS Program Surgeons, anesthesiologists, and health care systems strive for excellence in surgical care. This is a time when the Surgical Quality Journey needs to collaborate and implement the most current evidence-based surgical quality initiatives. There is overwhelming literature to support that the use of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program significantly improves outcomes, reducing morbidity and decreasing costs. This memo requests that Tundra Medical System Surgeon and Anesthesia Champions support the use of the ERAS program to improve the surgical care and recovery care of patients. Current Surgical Care Model Observation of the process for surgical preparedness in the offices of 15 surgeons of varying specialties was completed for 6 months. In short, it was observed that patients receive limited examination and discussion with surgeons preoperatively. There was no program that addressed patient education, optimization, and assessment for surgical readiness. Patients were not provided with information of what to expect before, during, and after surgery regarding their pain management, mobility expectations, nutritional requirements to optimize healing and other measures they could engage in to prevent complications. Anesthesia care in the medical center was similarly observed. Like the surgeons, the time spent preparing a patient for anesthesia and review of what to expect before, during and after procedure was very limited. Outdated processes such as patient fasting for six to eight hours prior to procedure and heavy intra-operative use of intravenous fluids to maintain perfusion was noted. Pain management included early and often use of narcotics and opioids to manage surgical pain. Changes in care are driven by objective matrix that are measured over time and represent quality of care outcomes. In review of these matrix, data such as length of stay, surgical site infections, length of time for return of bowel function, narcotic and opioid pain medication usage, and overall patient satisfaction have had little movement in the last 3 years. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Model Enhanced Recovery After Surgery is not a new idea. Melnyk, Megan, et alia found that ERAS has been around since the 1990s and was developed to change the way patients physiologically respond to the stressors of surgical procedures (Melnyk, Megan, et al. 343).

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

5. Purpose: This study aimed to ascertain the value of postoperative physiotherapy after open temporomandibular
joint (TMJ) surgery and provide a usable approach for practitioners.
Materials and methods: The authors performed a systematic review according to the Preferred Reporting Items
for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines of literature concerning the results of
postoperative physiotherapy after open TMJ surgery to evaluate its effect on rehabilitation. PubMed Central, Web
of Science, Cochrane Library Plus, CINAHL, and EMBASE were used to conduct this search and all articles up to
April 1, 2018 (total, 675 articles) were included. Risk of bias in nonrandomized controlled trials (non-RCTs) and
other observational studies was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS)
scale. The Cochrane Collaboration's tool was used for evaluating RCTs. Maximal mouth opening (MMO) before
and after surgery was evaluated, as was the physiotherapeutic protocol used during the postoperative period.
Evaluation of lateral movement and pain also was included, if this information was provided.
Results: Initially, 675 articles were found, 6 of which were included after screening. Risk of bias was found to be
unclear in the included RCTs and rather high in comparative and noncomparative articles. Three studies concluded
that patients who received postoperative physiotherapy had a significantly larger increase in MMO (P < .05)
compared with patients who did not receive any postoperative physiotherapy. No difference in lateral movement
was found (P > .05). Mean visual analog scale pain score was significantly lower in patients who were treated with
physiotherapy according to 2 of the included articles (P < .05).
Conclusions: Based on the current scientific literature included in this systematic review, it can be concluded
physiotherapy after open TMJ surgery plays an important role in achieving good postoperative results. The authors
provide a scheme for its effective use.
6. The role of physiotherapy is very important in articular surgeries such as total knee replacement or in hip
surgery. Although physiotherapy is a non surgical treatment for temporomandibular disorders ( TMDs) and it has
been explored well , the use of postoperative physiotherapy has not been explored that well.
Although temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery aims to improve joint movement and alleviate joint pain,
surgery-induced disuse muscle atrophy of the masticatory muscles can occur. Furthermore, immobilization can
lead to capsular changes and adhesion formation, because abnormal scar tissue formation can occur.
Physiotherapy can be active or passive in nature. Passive therapy can entail heat or cold application to relax the
muscles or decrease inflammation, respectively.
Exercises, including passive opening of the mouth with the aid of an apparatus.
In contrast, active exercises rely on muscle and joint activation, such as electrostimulation of the muscle, and
opening and closing of the joint by the patient without any assistance

temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery and provide a usable approach for practitioners

8. STUDY DESIGN:
-The authors performed a systematic review by conducting a computerized literature search.
This search was performed up to April 1, 2018 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for
Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs); non-RCTs; comparative, prospective, and retrospective
studies; and case series were included. Case reports were excluded to provide scientific
soundness. Systematic reviews concerning postoperative physiotherapy and rehabilitation after
TMJ surgery were reviewed to identify possible eligible studies. Only articles written in Dutch,
English, German, or French were included and the full text had to be accessible.
