Effect of Pilates Exercises on Balance, Fatigue and Quality of Life in Patients With Renal Transplantation
Fifty patients of both genders with age 20- 50 year old suffering from physical and functional limitations after renal transplantation surgeries participated in this study.
The participants were randomly distributed into two groups equal in number.
Group (A): 25 patients who received Pilates exercises 3 times per week in addition to conventional physical therapy program with medical care for 12 weeks while control group (group B) (n =25) who received conventional physical therapy program with medical care for 12 weeks.

Detaljert beskrivelse
Fifty patients of both genders with age 20- 50 year old suffering from physical and functional limitations after renal transplantation surgeries participated in this study.
The participants were selected from Damanhour Medical National Institute and randomly distributed into two groups equal in number.
Group (A): 25 patients who received Pilates exercises 3 times per week in addition to conventional physical therapy program with medical care for 12 weeks while control group (group B) (n =25) who received conventional physical therapy program with medical care for 12 weeks.
Outcome measures were balance, fatigue and quality of life.
Balance was evaluated by Borg Balance Scale; Fatigue was evaluated by Modified Fatigue Impact Scale and Quality of Life was evaluated by Kidney Disease Quality of Life self-report (KDQOL-SF), before and after the intervention.

Eksperimentell: Pilates exercises Plus Conventional physical therapy program.
Study group (group A) (n =25) who received Pilates exercises 3 times per week in addition to conventional physical therapy program (aerobic walking program, low intensity strengthening Exs, stretching Exs) and already taken medical care for 12 weeks.
|
Pilates exercises consisted of three parts: warm-up, the main part, and relaxation.
During the warm-up phase, exercises aimed at improving respiration and increasing the range of motion were performed.
The main phase consisted of Pilates exercises for the center of force and strengthening of the articular, pelvic, trunk, and limb muscles by 13 exercises: Bridging, Hundred, Roll Up, One Leg Circle (both ways), Rocker with closed legs, Single Straight Leg Stretch, Double Leg Stretch, Spine Stretch Forward, Single Leg Kick, Side Kick up and down, Side Kick circles, Rest position (stretch and relaxation), and Curling.
During the relaxation phase, stretching, relaxation, and breathing exercises were performed 3 times per week for 12 weeks.
Conventional physical therapy program (aerobic walking program, low intensity strengthening Exs, stretching Exs) and medical care (analgesics, antibiotics, wound care) for 12 weeks.

Borg Balance Scale
Tidsramme: 12 Weeks
|
The Berg Balance Scale, possibly the most widely used balance-related measure, has gained popularity in clinical trials.
It provides information about patients' balance-related abilities and can be used to assess improvement or worsening after rehabilitation.
The BBS is a scale that includes scoring between 0 (not applicable) and 4 (normal performance) for the performance of 14 different tasks.
Scores from 0 to 20 indicate a loss of balance, scores from 21 to 40 suggest an acceptable level of balance, and scores from 41 to 56 indicate good balance on this scale, which is examined across 56 points

Modified Fatigue Impact Scale
Tidsramme: 12 Weeks
|
Fatigue impact was assessed using the self-report Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS), which comprises a total score MFIS Total and three subscales (MFIS Physical, MFIS Cognitive and MFIS Psychosocial).
Higher scores indicate more fatigue impact.
The MFIS Total score (available range 0 - 84) was dichotomized at 38 to create two categories of participants, fatigued and non-fatigued

Kidney Disease Quality of Life self-report (KDQOL-SF)
Tidsramme: 12 Weeks
|
This questionnaire is used to assess the QOL of patients with kidney disease, It contains twenty-four questions covering a wide range of domains of human functioning in daily, occupational and social life.
It is a self-report measure, resulting from a subjective perception of one's health, functionality, and their QOL as directly related to having kidney disease.
Each answer in the questionnaire is assigned a specific number of points.
The scoring of answers in the KDQoL-SFTM questionnaire is carried out using a scale from 0 to 100 points.
The higher the value, the higher the QOL, and the lower the value, the worse the QOL.
