Aims and Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of Cryokinetics and Ultrasound therapy in treating supraspinatus tendinitis as measured by Visual analogue Scale (VAS) and 1 RM (Repetition Maximum. A sample of 60 patients with acute supraspinatus tendinitis with an experimental comparative study design. Patients who visited out patient department of Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Bangalore were included in the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Both the groups were treated 5 times per week for three weeks. Patients were evaluated with VAS and 1RM on day 1st, 15th day and end of third week. The values are statistically analyzed to determine their effect in reducing pain and improving muscle strength. Results: The two-intervention group showed significant improvement when the pre and post values were analyzed for VAS and 1RM with significant p value (p<0.05). But inter group comparisons showed cryokinetics group to be more effective (p < 0.05) than ultrasound therapy group for all outcome parameters.

Background and Objective: In supraspinatus tendinitis there is inflammatory and or degenerative changes of tendon. This study was done to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound and cryokinetics versus ultrasound and soft tissue massage (deep friction massage) in patients with acute supraspinatus tendinitis. Method: All subjects were clinically diagnosed by orthopaedician and were screened as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 60 patients were randomly divided into 2 groups with n= 30 each group, Group A- received ultrasound therapy and cryokinetics, whereas Group B- received ultrasound therapy and soft tissue massage. The treatment was given 1 session/day, 6 days/week. The total treatment duration was for 2 weeks. Outcome Measures: Patients were evaluated on day 1, day 7 and day 14. All the patients were assessed for pain and shoulder functional scale by taking VAS and SPADI. Results: Both the groups showed statistically significant changes in pre and post values. However, Group B showed greater improvement from baseline to week 1 on VAS and SPADI. After analysis group B showed significance with P<0.001*. Conclusion: Ultrasound therapy with cryokinetics, and ultrasound therapy with soft tissue massage both were effective in reducing pain intensity and increasing the shoulder functional scale but ultrasound therapy with soft tissue massage showed superior hand over ultrasound therapy with cryokinetics. Key words: Acute Supraspinatus Tendinitis, Ultrasound Therapy, Cryokinetics, Soft Tissue Massage, Visual Analogue Scale, Shoulder Pain And Disability Index.

Depression is an unfavorable condition for the elderly. When depression goes untreated, elderly can isolate themselves even allowed to end his life. Spiritual Emotional Freedom Technique (SEFT) and Keroncong music allegedly can be used as complementary therapy for elderly depression. This study aimed to determine the difference effect of Spiritual Emotional Freedom Technique (SEFT) and Keroncong music on elderly depression at Jombang geriatric service unit in Pare Kediri. The method used was a quasi-experimental, with a pretest and posttest design. In this study, respondents were grouped into two groups, SEFT intervention group (n=10) and Keroncong music Intervention  group (10). In both groups was given four  therapy sessions, within four weeks, each session is given therapy for 30 minutes. In this study it was found that the decrease of score depression between pretest and posttest at SEFT therapy (p = 0,008) and keroncong music therapy (p = 0,01). By unpaired t test, posttest obtained, the p value (p=0,760) >0.05 so that there is no significant difference between the posttest score in the SEFT Therapy group and thekeroncong music therapy  group. It can be concluded that SEFT and keroncong music  reduce depression in elderly, but no more effective between SEFT and keroncong music reduce depression in elderly.Keywords: Depression, Elderly, SEFT, Keroncong Music

Background: The objective of the present study was to compare the efficacy between sublingual 600 and 800 microgram Misoprostol after administration of Mifepristone up to 9 weeks gestation, to compare the incidence of side effects between the two doses. To compare the acceptability between the two doses.Methods: This study is a single-center, randomized study. The study is conducted at Fortis Escorts Hospital and Research Centre, Faridabad, during period of May 2014 to June 2015. 160 Pregnant women with singleton pregnancy up to 9 weeks gestation, visiting OPD of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, who wanted MTP by drug, after taking care of inclusion and exclusion criteria. An informed consent was taken from all the women.Results: In terms of efficacy, both the groups were comparable (p value 0.509). Blood loss was comparable in both the groups (p value 0.147). In terms of side effects, itching and rashes (p value 0.004) and abdominal cramps (p value 0.001) was found to be more in women taking 800ug Misoprostol. Also, need for analgesia (p value 0.001) was found to be more in women taking 800ug Misoprostol.Conclusions: Sublingual Misoprostol is comfortable and easier administration when compared to other routes and it has potential to be developed as a self-administered regimen. 600ug Sublingual Misoprostol is as efficacious as 800ug sublingual Misoprostol with significantly lesser side effects up to 7 weeks of gestation.

BACKGROUND: Nowadays pain control is one of the most important challenges for physicians, surgeons and anesthesiologists. New drugs and procedures to control pain have always been a major topic for researches. AIM: In this study, we evaluated the effects of preoperative pregabalin administration on relieving postoperative pain after thoracotomy surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study is a randomised, double-blind clinical trial, performed on 60 patients who underwent thoracotomy at Afzalipour hospital in Kerman, Iran. They were divided into case and control groups. Two hours before surgery an oral capsule of 300 mg pregabalin or placebo was given to patients. All patients similarly underwent general anaesthesia. Pain, nausea and vomiting were evaluated based on the visual analogue scale (VAS) and frequency. This study was verified and obtained the ethics committee code of K/92/489 from Kerman University of Medical Sciences. RESULTS: The average age of the pregabalin group was 39.7 ± 5.8 years and the control group 41.3 ± 6.1 years. The average pain score after regaining consciousness was 6.1 ± 0.2 in the case group and 7.9 ± 0.1 in the control group, and there was a significant difference between the 2 groups (p-value = 0.002). In the control group, 2 patients and the intervention group 3 patients, experienced nausea and vomiting. There was a significant difference between the overall average pethidine consumption and the average visual analogue scale in both groups. CONCLUSION: Pregabalin administration before thoracotomy is effective to reduce postoperative pain in patients. More research is needed to determine the optimal dose of pregabalin for preoperative administration.

The Impact

The long period of tuberculosis treatment causes patients to have a high risk of forgetting or stopping the medication altogether, which increases the risk of oral anti-tuberculosis drug resistance. The patient’s knowledge and perception of the disease affect the patient’s adherence to treatment. This research objective was to determine the impact of educational videos in the local language on the level of knowledge, perception, and adherence of tuberculosis patients in the Regional General Hospital (RSUD) Bangil. This quasi-experimental study design with a one-month follow-up allocated 62 respondents in the intervention group and 60 in the control group. The pre- and post-experiment levels of knowledge and perception were measured with a validated set of questions. Adherence was measured by pill counts. The results showed that the intervention increases the level of knowledge of the intervention group higher than that of the control group (p-value < 0.05) and remained high after one month of follow-up. The perceptions domains that changed after education using Javanese (Ngoko) language videos with the Community Based Interactive Approach (CBIA) method were the timeline, personal control, illness coherence, and emotional representations (p-value < 0.05). More than 95% of respondents in the intervention group take 95% of their pill compared to 58% of respondents in the control group (p-value < 0.05). Utilization of the local languages for design a community-based interactive approach to educate and communicate is important and effective.
