    Efficiency of Magnetic Field Treatment on Pressure Sores in Bedridden Patients
    (Galenos Publ House, 2011) Ozdemir, Ferda; Kasapoglu, Meliha; Oymak, Figen; Murat, Sadiye
    Objective: Pressure sores are an important source of complications in patients who are immobilized and bedridden. We aimed to investigate the efficiency of magnetic field treatment in pressure sores. Material and Methods: This was a randomized, double blind controlled design study. 20 patients in the study group received magneto-therapy, once a day for 30 minutes and with 150G, keeping to the BTL09 magnetotherapy device's program. In the control group, 20 patients received the dressing only once a day. The surface areas of the pressure sores were evaluated at the onset of the treatment (1(st) day), and on the 7(th) and 15(th) days. Results: When within group comparisons were conducted, a significant difference was observed between the 1(st) and 7(th) day, 7(th) and 15(th) day, and 1(st) and 15th day measures in both the groups in terms of the scar area. The average healing time for the treatment group was 10.80 +/- 4.06 (6-20) days, and the average healing time for the control group was 18.85 +/- 9.75 (5-32) days. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (z=-2.114, p=0.034). Also, there was a significant difference in the scar area between the two groups in the 15th day measure (z=-3.818, p=0.000). Conclusion: The healing process of the tissue can be accelerated with the use of magnetotherapy in the treatment of pressure sores of stage II and III,

    THE RELATION OF FUNCTIONAL INDEPENDENT MEASUREMENT AND AMBULATION WITH BONE MINERAL DENSITY IN PATIENTS WITH STROKE
    (Nobel Ilac, 2011) Murat, Sadiye; Ozdemir, Ferda; Kabayel, Derya Demirbag; Kasapoglu, Meliha; Kokino, Siranus; Berkarda, Sakir
    Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between loss of functions and bone mineral density (BMD) in hemiplegic patients after stroke. Material and Method: 41 patients were evaluated. The Brunnstrom values, the Functional Independent Measurement (FIM) and the Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) values were recorded. BMD measurements were evaluated with dual-energy X-ray absorbtiometry (DXA). Results: BMD decrease was significantly greater on the paretic side compared with the non paretic side. Patients who had not ambulated lost of their BMD in the paretic side and the loss was significantly higher than those who had ambulated. There was a positive correlation between FIM score and BMD values in the affected side. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the rapidity of the BMD loss is correlated to the functional independent and ambulation categories in poststroke hemiplegic patients.
