  • Objective : This study presents guidelines for setting up a sensory integration room by applying the Delphi method. Methods : The Delphi method was applied in a survey of 22 expert panels asked to review sensory integration therapy from May to June 2020 to collect expert opinions. The survey was conducted in two rounds. The first round involved the collection of opinions based on prior research that used a total of 40 assessment tools, 23 closed questions about treatment tools, and 10 questions about the physical environment. Based on the results of the first round, the second was conducted using a process of item deletion and modification. Results : A total of 59 items were selected in the first round of the survey. In the second the contents of these 59 items were analyzed: each item scored .42 or higher, so no items were deleted. The stability of the survey was also calculated and found to be less than 0.5, so no further testing was required. The average content feasibility ratio of the final Delphi survey was .92, stability .15, convergence .36, and consensus .80, showing high agreement. Conclusion : This study is expected to help institutions and clinical therapists who want to create a sensory integration therapy room in their facilities by examining the physical environment, treatment tools, and evaluation tools used in sensory integration therapy rooms and understanding the views on such environments obtained from the clinical site to sensory integration therapists.

  • The purpose of this study was to provide basic information about the program space planning of skilled nursing facilities for the elderly in order to consider elderly health and diversity and to improve their rehabilitation ability. A mail survey was undertaken and 58 out of 78 facilities $(74.4\%)$ responded to the questionnaire. The answers of $56 (71.8\%)$ were used for analysis. The results of the study were as follows. Many programs, especially exercise, recreation, and facility events programs that require dynamic activity, were conducted in the lounge of the facilities because that area was wide with various equipments such as tables, sofas, and sound facilities, and did not require any huge movements of the elderly since it was very close to the elderly individual rooms. The art and human knowledge programs, managed with small groups, were peformed in separate program rooms or elderly individual room so that the elderly could pay attention to the programs. On the other hand, as for the design elements, the spaces for the art and human knowledge programs required good lightings and separate program rooms. The area of the spaces for the exercise, recreation and facility events programs was found to be the most problematic element, even though they were performed in the comparatively wide lounge. For future research, a field observation study is suggested to analyze the detail relations among the program spaces.

  • Resistive therapeutic exercise prescription goal is to improve functional performance and capabilities through the development of increased muscular strengh endurance or power. Resistance can be applied to either dynamic or static muscle contractions. Resistive therapeutic exorcise can be carried nut concentrically, eccentrically, isometrically, isokinetically. Neurodevelopmental treatment has not resistive therapeutic exercise concept. But proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitate techniques have resistive therapeutic exercise concept with pattens and techniques. It is aid muscle contraction, motor control and increase strength. Manual muscle testing will help the therapist establish a qualitative and quantitative baseline level of strength. Manual resistance maybe applied a against controlled lengthening contraction re static contraction of a muscle. A repetition maximum is not easy to calculate and is not the most accurate method available today to measure strength before of after a resistive therapeutic exercise program. Oddvar Holten Diagram is essy to calculate and is the most accurate method available today to measure strength before of after a resistive therapeutic exercise program. Plyometric training emphasize the development of muscular power and coordination. Quick bursts of force in functional movement patterns are often necessary of a patient is to return to high-demand occupational, recreational or sports related activities.

  • There is growing interest in the use of nonpharmacologic approaches to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting. This study was designed to investigate the effect of acupuncture on P6 for preventing Opioid-induced nausea and vomiting. A total of 83 patients receiving intravenous patient controlled analgesia(PCA) with fentanyl were randomly assigned to two groups. In acupuncture group, they've got treatment after surgery at recovery room for 20minutes. Assessment of nausea and vomiting was obtained from all patients for 48hours. The incidence of nausea, that of vomiting and the nausea grade-the severity of nausea within 48 hours after surgery- were the main outcome measures which showed no statistically significant difference between groups. There is no sufficient evidence to suggest effect of acupuncture on P6 for preventing PONV.

  • PURPOSE: This study was conducted to devise a method of preventing water infiltration into the surface electrodes during EMG measurements underwater and on the ground and to check the reliability of Electromyography (EMG) measurements when underwater. METHODS: Six healthy adults were selected as subjects in this study. The measurements in this study were conducted in pool dedicated to underwater exercise and physical therapy room in the hospital building. An MP150 (Biopac Systems, US, 2010) and a BioNomadix 2-channel wireless EMG transmitter (Biopac Systems, US, 2012) was used to examine the muscle activity of rectus femoris, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius of dominant side. The subjects repeated circulation tasks on the ground for more than 10 min for enough surface electrode attachment movement. After a 15-min break, subjects performed the circulation task underwater(water depth 1.1m, water temperature $33.5^{\circ}C$, air temperature $27^{\circ}C$), as on the ground, for more than 10 min, and the MVIC of each muscle was measured again. SPSS v20.0 was used for all statistical computations. RESULTS: The maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) values between the underwater and on the ground measurements showed no significant differences in all four muscles and showed a high intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of >0.80. CONCLUSION: We determined that EMG measurements obtained underwater could be used with high reliability, comparable to ground measurements.

  • Mobile phones used by healthcare workers are not only an indicator of the contamination of healthcare associated bacteria, but can also be another source of infection. The number and time of handwashing, mobile phone operation time and disinfection were highly relation with the bacterial contamination on the surface of mobile phone. Healthcare associated bacteria isolated from the mobile phone surface were 28 MRCoNS (48.3%), 14 S. aureus (24.2%), 3 MRSA (5.2%), 5 A. baumannii (8.6%), 3 MRAB (5.2%), 3 Entrococcus spp. (5.1%), 2 Pantoea spp. (3.4%), 2 A. lowffii (3.4%), 1 E. cloacae (1.7%), 1 P. stutzeri (1.7%), and P. mirabillis (1.7%). For isolation according to department, 2 MRAB from the emergency room and 1 MRSA from intensive unit, the radiology team and the rehabilitation medical team, respectively were isolated. As a result of the relation of isolates from the department of patient contact (ER, RT, GW, CP, ICU, RMT), the bacterial isolation rate was 75% and the department of patient non-contact (MRT) was 10%.
