Purpose To translate the "Physical Activity Scale for Individuals with Physical Disabilities (PASIPD)" into Turkish, to make a cultural adaptation, and to examine the psychometric properties including validity and reliability. Methods During the translation period cross-cultural adaptation design proposed by guideline was used. Patients completed the Turkish version of the PASIPD and it was applied again a week later. To determine the reliability and internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated. Test-retest reliability was determined by using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Pearson's correlation analysis. Construct validity was examined with factor analysis. Convergent validity was examined by comparing PASIPD with Functional Independent Measurement (FIM), Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), and Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique Short (CHART-SF), and criterion validity was examined by comparing PASIPD with Manual wheelchair propulsion tests scores. Results Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.725. The ICC coefficient for the test-retest reliability was 0.851. PASIPD was explained by three factors. The ratio of explaining the total variance of these 3 factors was determined as 51.66%. FIM (r = 0.307, p = 0.040) and CHART-SF were moderately positively correlated with PASIPD total score. The correlation between the total score of PASIPD and NHP was r = -0.443 (p = 0.002). 20 Meters Propulsion (r = -0.404, p = 0.005) and Slalom Tests (r = -0.305, p = 0.037) were highly negative and 6 min Push Propulsion (r = 0.456, p = 0.001) were moderately positive with PASIPD total score. Conclusion The Turkish version of the PASIPD is a valid and reliable scale in patients with spinal cord injury.

İnme Hastalarında Manuel Terapinin Solunum Fonksiyonları ve Solunum Kas Kuvveti Üzerindeki Anlık Etkisi
(Turkey Assoc Physiotherapists, 2024) Atıcı, Emıne; Gül, Kenan; Kardeş, Kübra; Tütüneken, Yunus Emre; Elbaşı, Nurgül; Cirak, Yasemin Buran
Amaç: Manuel terapinin (MT) faydaları bilinmesine rağmen inme hastalarında etkisi ile ilgili çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, inme hastalarında MT'nin solunum fonksiyonu ve solunum kas kuvveti üzerindeki ani etkilerini araştırmaktır. Yöntem: Çalişmaya kırk yedi hasta (33 erkek, 14 kadın) dahil edildi ve katılımcılar randomize olarak MT grubuna (n = 31) ve kontrol grubuna (n = 16) ayrıldı. Tüm katılımcıların, başlangıçta solunum fonksiyonu ve solunum kas testi değerlendirildi ve ardından girişim öncesi 10 dakika boyunca sırtüstü dinlendiler. Girişimden hemen sonra solunum testleri tekrarlandı. Testler şunları içeriyordu: maksimum inspiratuar basınç (MIP) ve maksimum ekspiratuar basınç (MEP), zorlu vital kapasite (FVC), 1. saniyedeki zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ve tepe ekspiratuar akış (PEF). Sonuçlar: Grup içi karşılaştırmalarda MT grubunda ölçülen tüm parametrelerde anlamlı iyileşme gözlenirken (p<0,05), kontrol grubunda ise FEV1 ve FEV1/FVC değerleri dışında anlamlı değişiklik görülmedi(p>0,05). Gruplar arası karşılaştırmalarda FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF ve MEP değerlerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulundu(p<0,05). Tartışma: Bu çalışma, manuel tedavinin inmeli hastalarda solunum fonksiyonu ve solunum kas kuvveti üzerinde anlık olumlu etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir.
