Elite Athlete Training Principles can Benefit Neurological Rehabilitation
At Anatomical Concepts, we look to other fields for insight and inspiration that we can bring to rehabilitation. For example, elite athletes like our rehabiliation clients will set training goals, undergo rigorous physical training and adhere to strict plans to achieve peak performance. This article explores the potential benefits of applying the principles of elite athlete training to help individuals recover from neurological conditions.
Pressure ulcers: The common risk factors
Pressure ulcers are a significant problem in the UK, particularly for bedridden patients or those with limited mobility. They occur in up to 23% of patients in acute care facilities and up to 33% of patients in long-term care facilities. At Anatomical Concepts, we are particularly interested in heel pressure ulcers, accounting for approximately 25% of all ulcers.
To prevent these ulcers, we should know the risk factors which are partly "mechanical" and partly "medical". We discuss the major ones and notice how these factors can overlap. We finish by looking at how the PRAFO range of orthoses can help
Can Electrical Stimulation Help Denervated Muscles Recover?
This article explores the role of electrical stimulation in the recovery of denervated muscles, detailing its mechanisms, clinical guidelines, and home-based applications. It highlights recent research, current limitations, and future directions, offering insights for medical professionals and patients.
