3rd World Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Conference

Neurological Rehabilitation is a formal method for the therapeutic treatment of patients with stroke or spinal cord injury, which develop severe sequelae that affect their motor and sensory abilities. Although the Central Nervous System has flexibility mechanisms for natural recovery, a high percentage of patients should receive specific therapies to regain motor function, such as Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy or Upright physical Therapy. The neurorehabilitation has undergone severe changes due to the incorporation of computer and robotic electronic devices, designed to produce positive changes in cortical excitability of the cerebral hemisphere injured and so to improve neuroplasticity.  Commonly treated conditions: ·          Stroke recovery ·          Spinal Cord Injury ·          Cerebral palsy ·       ...

Rehab is a place where a patient undertakes Drug Rehabilitation i.e. correct medicine and treatment for addiction on psychoactive substances like alcohol, prescription drugs and street drugs including cocaine, heroin, amphetamines. The main purpose of drug rehabilitation is to enable the patient to stop using of drugs to avoid the physical consequences caused by extreme abuse. Signs You Need Rehabilitation for Drug Abuse : ·          Lone drug use ·          Health problems ·          Inability to stop using a drug, despite all of the problems it causes ·          Shattered Relationships ·          Psychological behavior ·          Mood swings ·          Neglected appearance ·  ...

Cancer treatment may disturb physical, social, psychological, and work-related abilities. Rehabilitation helps persons to recover these abilities and maintain independence. Many people than ever are suffering with cancer, but the disease and its life-saving treatments often leave survivors with physical, cognitive, and emotional sequelae that need rehabilitation services. Cancer rehabilitation is developing to meet the complex needs of an increasing number of survivors: rehabilitation professionals are working to design interventions that restore the integrity of organ structure and function, remediate functional loss, and allow full involvement in personal roles and activities. Cancer Rehabilitation help in reaching the following goals: ·          Recover physical strength. ·           Increase the ability to care for yourself which reduces the amount of support needed from caregivers. ·   ...

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a vast global problem accounting for the leading reason of death worldwide. Acute myocardial Infraction (AMI) is the most public cause of death from CHD. Identifying this problem and the need to rehabilitate patients’ physiatrists recommend the provision of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) services. CR is a multi-component involvement generally including of structured exercise training, psychological support and education to promote positive lifestyle changes. Enhancements in risk factors, mortality, morbidity and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) have all been linked with CR attendance. Benefits of Cardiac Rehabilitation : Heart Health Ø   Improves : ·          Cholesterol and blood pressure measures ·          Ability to participate in exercise ·          Likelihood of quitting smoking   ...

2 nd World Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Conference is a two-day conference which is going to be held on June 13-14, Helsinki, Finland which comprises prompt keynote presentations, Oral talks, Poster presentations and Exhibitions.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation emphasis on advanced technologies. Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation centres around a complete program for putting the moments of a man's life back together – therapeutically, socially, candidly and professionally...

Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is the most common of several kinds of dysautonomia, characterized by dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system showing with signs of orthostatic intolerance with or without related orthostatic hypotension and extreme autonomic excitation. Along with musculoskeletal signs of POTS and its known associations with other clinical entities like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, POTS constitute an unusual treatment challenge of which the orthopaedic surgeon, Physiatrist and other associated healthcare providers should be aware. Symptoms: Cardiac symptoms: ·          rapid palpitations ·          lightheadedness ·          chest discomfort ·          dyspnea Non-cardiac symptoms: ·          brain fog ·     ...

To identify the 'physiatry' in a single word is tough. This may be due that physiatry originated from two different fields, physical medicine and rehabilitation and emphases on assisting the general improvement of functional recovery in disabled patients. In addition, physiatry has new fields to develop; health and welfare. Therefore, the individuality of physiatry will change depending on how physiatrists act in these fields. To endorse the progress of physiatry, physiatrists should apply their efforts in several directions. First, physiatrists must make efforts to treat the impairment itself in addition to use classical compensatory methods. Earlier, it was thought that the adult central nervous system was fixed and could not be repaired. Recently, growth of functional imaging techniques revealed that the adult central nervous system can get well from injury through neuroplasticity, and that this recovery can bring functional improvement. Because this recovery thro...
