Cardiac Rhythm and Affecting Factors in Patients Hospitalized in the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Clinic

June 7, 2022 updated by: Hande Ozdemir, Trakya University
In our study, it is aimed to evaluate the cardiac rhythms of patients who are decided to receive inpatient treatment in the physical therapy and rehabilitation clinic due to any neuromusculoskeletal diseases with 24 hour rhythm holter follow up on the day of hospitalization and three weeks after hospitalization and to determine the factors that may affect this result if a significant change is observed between the two measurements.The present results will guide the determination of the exercise duration, intensity, type and severity of the exercises to be created within the scope of the treatment programs of the patients and will lead to similar studies.

Detailed Description

Neuromusculoskeletal disorders include a variety of fairly common pathologies that can have a major impact on a person's health. Today, neuromusculoskeletal diseases are the main causes of occupational diseases and chronic physical disability leading to high health care costs globally. Exercise therapy is seen as an important part of the treatment of many neuromusculoskeletal diseases.

Patients hospitalized in the physical therapy and rehabilitation clinic are generally elderly people with chronic neuromusculoskeletal system disorders. While the presence of ventricular premature beat is detected in more than 50% of healthy adults in 24 hour rhythm holter examination, this rate rises above 90% in the elderly.Although many studies have noted that regular exercise and high cardiovascular fitness reduce the risk of cardiovascular arrhythmias, exercise may paradoxically increase the risk of sudden cardiac death in those with preexisting cardiac abnormalities.

There are no studies evaluating the changes in heart rhythms during hospitalization of patients hospitalized for treatment in physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics where exercise therapy is frequently applied.In our study, it is aimed to evaluate the cardiac rhythms of patients who receive inpatient treatment in the physical therapy and rehabilitation clinic with 24 hour rhythm holter follow up on the day of hospitalization and three weeks after hospitalization and to determine the factors that may affect this result if a significant change is observed between the two measurements.
