Publication Metadata only Validity and Reliability of Quick Motor Function Test in Ambulatory Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Patients(2022-12-06) KENİŞ COŞKUN, ÖZGE; KARADAĞ SAYGI, NAİME EVRİM; Imamoglu S., KENİŞ COŞKUN Ö., Deveci M., Ozturk G., Karadag-Saygi E.The quick motor function test (QMFT) is used to evaluate Pompe patients\" motor function. This study aims to evaluate the convergent validity and reliability of the cross-culturally adapted Turkish version of QMFT in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Twenty-eight patients diagnosed with DMD were included in the study. The QMFT was translated and adapted to Turkish. The functionality of the patients was assessed with the north star ambulatory assessment (NSAA) and the 6-minute walk test (6MWT); muscle strength was evaluated with a hand-held dynamometer. There were two separate practitioners on the first day of the QMFT study; it was applied a second time by the first practitioner 14 days later. The mean age of DMD patients was 9.03 +/- 3.39 (minimum 4-maximum 18. Twenty-seven patients concluded all the necessary assessments. Intrarater reliability of QMFT in patients with DMD was intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.98, and interrater reliability ICC = 0.98 was excellent. QMFT correlated very well with 6MWT ( r (s) = 0.86; p < 0.001) and NSAA ( r (s) = 0.91; p < 0.001). Both the QMFT and NSAA show stronger correlations with proximal muscle groups (convergent validity) than with distal muscle groups (divergent validity). QMFT is a reliable and valid test for evaluating motor function in patients with DMD.Publication Open Access The effect of telerehabilitation on quality of life, anxiety, and depression in children with cystic fibrosis and caregivers: A single-blind randomized trial(2022-05-01) KENİŞ COŞKUN, ÖZGE; KARADAĞ SAYGI, NAİME EVRİM; KENİŞ COŞKUN Ö., Aksoy A. N., Kumas E. N., Yilmaz A., Guven E., Ayaz H. H., Sozer T., ERGENEKON A. P., Karadag-Saygi E.Background Postural and aerobic exercises are essential in rehabilitation in cystic fibrosis (CF). The aim of this study is to examine the effect of telerehabilitation on the quality of life, depression, and anxiety levels of children with CF and their caregivers\" mood and anxiety levels. Materials and Methods Patients between the ages of 6-13 with CF were randomized into two groups. Study group received an exercise program three times a week via Zoom for 12 weeks. Cystic Fibrosis Revised Questionnaire (CFQ-R), Anxiety and Depression Scale in Children-Revised (RCADS) were applied to the patients and State-Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were applied to the caregivers in the beginning and at the end of the program. Patients\" FEV1 levels and 6-min walk tests were also measured. Results Twenty-eight patient-caregiver dyads, 14 dyads in each group, completed the study. The initial mean RCADS-Major depressive disorder score of the patients in the exercise group was 6.21 +/- 3.11, and this value decreased to 3.92 +/- 3.79 at the end of the study and was significantly better (p < 0.02). A similar significant change was observed when the RCADS-generalized anxiety disorder score decreased from the initial mean level of 6.28 +/- 2.81 to 3.42 +/- 2.65 (p < 0.01). There were significant changes in improvement in the body image in telerehabilitation group. Similar significant changes were not observed in the control group. Caregivers\" anxiety and depression levels did not change significantly. Conclusion A short-term telerehabilitation program improved patients\" anxiety and depression levels, body image, and functional status. However, caregiver anxiety and depression levels did not change significantly.Publication Metadata only Serebral palside botulinum toksin enjeksiyon tedavisinin artısı ve eksisi: bakım verenlerin perspektifini inceleyen niteliksel bir çalışma(2021-02-28) KARADAĞ SAYGI, NAİME EVRİM; KENİŞ COŞKUN, ÖZGE; CÖBEK ÜNALAN, GÜLRU PEMRA; AKGÜLLE, AHMET HAMDİ; KARADAĞ SAYGI N.

All rights reserved.Sjögren-Larsson syndrome (SLS) is a rare neurocutaneous disorder characterized by the presence of congenital ichthyosis, spasticity, and mental retardation. As with other rare genetic diseases, treatment is mainly symptomatic. Due to the absence of definitive treatment, lifelong follow-up and support of patients are important to improve the quality of life. A 7-year-old female child who was diagnosed as having SLS was referred to the rehabilitation clinic. After 20 sessions of a rehabilitation program, she started walking independently with the additional contribution of ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs). The contribution of the short-term rehabilitation approach and especially the administration of AFOs to the independence level of the patient is emphasized herein.Publication Metadata only The Relationship Between Caregiver Burden and Resilience and Quality of Life in a Turkish Pediatric Rehabilitation Facility(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020) KARADAĞ SAYGI, NAİME EVRİM; Kenis-Coskun, Ozge; Atabay, Cem Etken; Sekeroglu, Aynur; Akdeniz, Esranur; Kasil, Batuhan; Bozkurt, Gizem; Karadag-Saygi, EvrimPurpose: To investigate the effect of caregiver burden, resilience, and quality of life of the parents of patients who are followed-up in a tertiary pediatric rehabilitation clinic. Design and methods: This is a correlational cross-sectional study. Parents of patients who attend to utilize pediatric rehabilitation outpatient clinics of a tertiary center on a regular basis were invited to participate. All participants filled in the Zarit Caregiver Burden (ZCB) scale, Family Resilience scale (FRS) and Nottingham Health Profile (NHP). Results: A total of 107 patient and caregiver dyads were included. Fifty-five (51%) patients had cerebral palsy, 10 (9%) had spina bifida and 42 (39%) had other neurodevelopmental disorders. Eighty-one (75%) of the caregivers were mothers. There was a significant difference in the caregiver burden between ambulatory children (Mean ZCB score 30.11 +/- 13.56) and non-ambulatory patients (Mean ZCB score 37.22 +/- 13.91) (p = .01). There were moderate negative correlations between caregiver burden and FRS commitment to life and FRS self-sufficiency subscales. Caregiver burden significantly positively correlated with all NHP domains. Conclusions: Caregiver burden is significantly higher in parents of non-ambulatory children when compared to ambulatory children in the pediatric rehabilitation setting. Caregiver burden and resilience correlated on moderate levels, but the factors influencing them are still unclear. Practice implications: Healthcare and social support should be given to all caregivers in pediatric rehabilitation setting, but more so to the caregivers of non-ambulatory patients.

Patients and methods: In this single-blind, randomized-controlled trial, 19 pediatric CF patients (11 males, 8 females; mean age:9.36 years; range, 6 to 14 years) were randomly allocated to chest physiotherapy and postural exercise program (Group 1, n=10) or chest physiotherapy program alone (Group 2, n=9) between March 2017 and October 2017. Respiratory functions were assessed with pulmonary function tests, whereas exercise tolerance with the Modified Shuttle Test (MST), quality of life with the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised Child Version (CFQR), and postural stability with the Limits of Stability Test (LOS). All tests were performed before treatment and six weeks, three months, and six months after treatment. Results: Respiratory functions were improved in both groups; however, these changes were not statistically significant. The MST increased after treatment in both groups (p<0.001 and p=0.003 respectively), without a significant difference between the groups. Emotional function and treatment difficulties subdomains in CFQR were significantly increased only in the group with postural exercises (p<0.05). Conclusion: The postural exercise program in addition to chest physiotherapy in pediatric CF patients whose postural changes were not taken place did not cause significant changes in respiratory function, exercise tolerance, and postural stability; however, it affected the emotional state well and improved the compliance with the treatment.Publication Open Access Comparison of telerehabilitation versus home-based video exercise in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy: a single-blind randomized study(2022-10-01) KENİŞ COŞKUN, ÖZGE; ÖZTÜRK THOMAS, GÜLTEN; KARADAĞ SAYGI, NAİME EVRİM; KENİŞ COŞKUN Ö., Imamoglu S., Karamancioglu B., Kurt K., ÖZTÜRK G., Karadag-Saygi E.Introduction Patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) have lost their access to on-site rehabilitation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Telerehabilitation can be a viable approach for these patients to protect their muscle strength and functional status. The aim of this study is to compare telerehabilitation with home-based video exercises. Patients and methods Male, ambulatory DMD patients were randomized into telerehabilitation and video-exercise groups. Nineteen patients were included in the fnal analyses. Telerehabilitation consisted of live online exercises, while video exercise implemented a pre-recorded video as a home-based program. Both programs spanned 8 weeks, three times a week. Patients’ muscle strength with a hand-held dynamometer, Quick Motor Function Test, North-Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA), 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) and Caregiver Burden were recorded before and after treatment. Results The 6MWT of the telerehabilitation group was391.26±95.08 m before and387.75±210.93 after treatment (p=0.94) and 327.46±103.88 m before treatment and313.77±114.55 after treatment in video group (p=0.63). The mean NSAA score of the telerehabilitation group were26.70±8.04 before treatment and 25.20±11.33 after treatment (p=0.24). In the video group scores were 21.66±6.65 before to 22.00±8.61 after treatment (p=0.87). There were no signifcant changes between groups at the end of the treatments. The telerehabilitation group's neck extension, bilateral shoulder abduction, and left shoulder fexion, bilateral knee fexion and extension, bilateral ankle dorsifexion, and left ankle plantar fexion strength improved signifcantly and were better than the video group (p<0.05 for all measurements). Conclusion A telerehabilitation approach is superior in improving muscle strength than a video-based home exercise, but none of the programs improved functional outcomes in ambulatory patients with DMD.
