Long-handled shoehorn length, body mass index, and hip range of motion in healthy female adults / Rachel A. WEHRKAMP in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 64/6 (novembre-décembre 2010)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 64/6 (novembre-décembre 2010) . - p. 915-922 Titre : Long-handled shoehorn length, body mass index, and hip range of motion in healthy female adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rachel A. WEHRKAMP ; Martin S. Rice Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p. 915-922 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Flexion Résumé : We examined the effect that long-handled shoehorn (LHSH) length and body mass index (BMI) have on hip range of motion (ROM) in female adults. Thirty-eight female participants were asked to don a shoe using 18-, 24-, and 30-in. LHSHs. Significant differences in hip flexion were found between the 18- and the 24-in. shoehorns and between the 18- and the 30-in. shoehorns. A significant positive relationship was found between BMI and internal rotation for each of the LHSHs. The results suggest that healthy women with low BMIs using a 24- or 30-in. LHSH have the greatest chance of not violating hip flexion or hip internal rotation ROM precautions. Implications suggest that therapists consider individual BMI and available hip ROM before prescribing an LHSH. A follow-up study is needed involving populations who would likely benefit from using LHSHs.

Men in Occupational Therapy: Issues, Factors, and Perceptions. / Angelo J. M. Maxim in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 72/1 (January/February 2018)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 72/1 (January/February 2018) . - pp.1-7 Titre : Men in Occupational Therapy: Issues, Factors, and Perceptions. Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Angelo J. M. Maxim, Auteur ; Martin S. Rice, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp.1-7 Langues : Américain (ame) Mots-clés : Ergothérapeutes  Hommes  Pratique professionnelle  Facteurs sexuels Résumé : OBJECTIVE. Relatively few men are occupational therapy practitioners in the United States. Little research has examined issues germane to men working in the profession. The objective of this study was to investigate perceptions, issues, and factors surrounding male occupational therapy practitioners. METHOD. A survey link was emailed to 9,467 licensed occupational therapy practitioners in Ohio; 699 participants responded, yielding a response rate of 7.66%. RESULTS. Male and female participants provided both similar and significantly different responses to the survey questions. Differences generally involved responses to questions on personal finances and client education. Themes were identified from the open-ended questions regarding gender stereotypes. CONCLUSION. Although male and female practitioners differed in opinion on several issues and perceptions related to the profession, in general they were happy with their career choice. Specifically, participants expressed that they enjoyed their job, contributed to society, and had a sense of job security, regardless of gender.

Reality, virtual reality, and imagery: Quality of movement in novice dart players / Reggie Kehoe in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.79 N°4 (April 2016)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.79 N°4 (April 2016) . - p. 244-251 Titre : Reality, virtual reality, and imagery: Quality of movement in novice dart players Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Reggie Kehoe ; Martin S. Rice Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p. 244-251 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : facultés motrices  ergothérapie  réalité virtuelle Résumé : Introduction Meaning and purpose have been tenets of occupational therapy since the profession’s inception. Therefore, it is important to understand how to best employ these central concepts in practice. One way to do this is to study the “same” task under materials-based, imagery-based, and virtual reality conditions. Method Participants included 34 adult novice dart players, each of whom experienced all three conditions in a randomized order. Motion capture technology was used to evaluate the quality of motion during the three conditions. Results Similarities between the materials-based and imagery-based condition (p > 0.0167) suggest participants utilized preconceived concepts of throwing real darts during these two conditions. Differences between the virtual reality and imagery-based conditions (p < 0.0167) suggest that the virtual reality condition utilized a different motor performance, focusing less on perceptions of throwing darts and more on achieving successes within the virtual environment. Conclusion Implications are that utilizing materials-based occupations may be more efficient than imagery-based to enhance development of a skill; imagery-based performance is more similar to the materials-based performance than the virtual reality performance. Virtual reality occupations can be utilized should the patient find meaning and purpose in virtual reality occupations or if the patient cannot engage in a materials-based counterpart.
