Öğe The effect of walking sticks on balance in geriatric subjects(Society of Physical Therapy Science (Rigaku Ryoho Kagakugakkai), 2016) Dogru, Esra; Kizilci, Harun; Balci, Nilay Comuk; Korkmaz, Nilufer Cetisli; Canbay, Ozden; Katayifci, Nihan[Purpose] Guidelines and clarity regarding the information for deciding the need for walking sticks and the suitability of these sticks is insufficient. This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of walking stick and its effects on the balance in the elderly. [Subjects and Methods] A total of 39 elderly subjects aged between 65–95 years (mean age, 76.15 ± 8.35 years) and living in the Residential Aged Care and Rehabilitation Center were included. Sociodemographic data of the individuals, the material of the walking stick, who made the decision of usage and length of walking sticks were questioned. The Berg Balance Scale (BBS) scores were used to evaluate balance. [Results] Subjects’ BBS scores while using the walking stick were higher than that without the walking stick. A significant difference was observed in BBS scores obtained with the stick and without the stick, according to body mass index parameters. Majority of the subjects also started to use walking sticks by themselves. No significant difference was observed between the ideal length and actual length of the walking stick was used. [Conclusion] Our study demonstrated that the elderly generally decide to use walking stick by themselves and chose the appropriate materials; which improves their balance. © 2016 The Society of Physical Therapy Science.Öğe Investigation of obesity frequency and eating habits in a university hospital professionals(Yerkure Tanitim & Yayincilik Hizmetleri A S, 2016) Canbay, Ozden; Dogru, Esra; Katayifci, Nihan; Duman, Fatma; Sahpolat, Musa; Kaya, Inci; Dag, ErsinObjective: Aim of this study was to determine the incidence of obesity in health professionals and to investigate the effects of obesity on depression and physical health. Materials and Methods: Research has been applied to the medical staff and auxiliary staff of Mustafa Kemal University Research Hospital. 131 individuals were included in the study. Socio-demographic information form, New York Posture Analysis and Beck Depression Scale were applied. Body Mass Index (BMI), daily working hours, daily number of meals, perception of body image, eating habits and sleep state were examined. Results: Individuals with age between 19-60 were included in the study. 52 individuals were male, 72 of them were female. Of these individuals, 85 were married, 46 were single. A statiscally significant relationship has not been found between spending time at the dining table and obesity. Statistically significant difference has been found between BMI and perception. Also, statistically significant relationship has been found between exessive consumption of food in a meal and obesity. There has been no significant relationship between drinking water while eating meal and less chewing meals. Acidic drink consumption frequency has been found to be more in obese individuals than others. A significant difference has been found between fruit-vegetable consumption frequency and BMI. It has been observed that obese and overweight individuals consume fruits more frequently than normal and slim individuals. Frequency of consumption of sugary and fatty foods has been seen more in obese and overweight individuals than normal and weak individuals. Statistically significant difference has been found between number of meals and BMI. Conclusion: Identification of the prevalence of obesity which is a society problem with increasing importance and factors affecting obesity in healthcare workers who are the main persons fighting against the obesity are extremely important. It has been thought that obesity brings significant orthopedic problems due to postural issues. Additionally, body image perception in overweight and obese individuals result in a biopsycho- socio-cultural aspects and treatment program must be created comprehensively. Obesity causes systemic diseases, especially cardiac, diabetes and orthopedic problems, so appropriate and specific exercises should be given individually.Öğe The Role of Active Video-Accompanied Exercises in Improvement of the Obese State in Children: A Prospective Study from Turkey(Galenos Yayincilik, 2016) Duman, Fatma; Kokacya, Mehmet Hanifi; Dogru, Esra; Katayifci, Nihan; Canbay, Ozden; Aman, FatmaObjective: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of active video games and music-accompanied aerobic and callisthenic exercises on body mass index (BMI), body fat ratio, physical performance tests, psychosocial status, and self-respect in overweight and obese adolescents. Methods: Fifty (21 males and 29 females) slightly overweight and obese participants with no chronic disorder and of an average age of 12.16 +/- 0.99 years were included in the study. The percentile values for BMI, triceps skinfold thickness, waist circumference measurements, and physical performance tests were evaluated. The effects of obesity on psychological wellness were evaluated using the depression scale for children (DSC) and the Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale for self-esteem. Following these evaluations, the participants were subjected to an exercise program in five groups of 10 people, 3 days a week for a duration of 8 weeks. Each exercise session lasted 45 minutes. Participants were re-evaluated at the end of the exercise program. The data collected both before and after the exercise program were analyzed using the SPSS 18.0 program. Results: According to BMI reference values, 28% of the 50 participants (n=14; 6 males and 8 females) were assessed to be overweight and 72% to be obese (n= 36; 15 males and 21 females). Following the exercise program, 14% of the participants (n= 7; 3 males and 4 females) were assessed as normal, 46% (n= 23; 14 males and 9 female) as slightly overweight, and 40% (n= 20; 4 male and 16 female) as obese. It was determined that the decrease in BMI values (p< 0.05) was higher in male participants than in female participants and that the frequency of obesity was higher in the females. A statistically significant decrease in BMI values was found after the exercise program (p< 0.01). Following the exercise program, statistically significant differences have also been observed in the self-esteem (p< 0.01), psychological wellness (p= 0.025), triceps skinfold thickness, as well as in waist circumference and BMI values of the participants compared to the pre-exercise phase (p< 0.01). Conclusion: An exercise program applied with active video games was found to have positive effects on the obese state as well as on the psychosocial status and self-esteem of obese individuals, indicating that exercise and physical activity have an important role in improvement of the obese state in childhood as well as having positive contributions to self-esteem and psychological wellness state.Öğe Temporomandibular Joint Assesment in Children with Cerebral Palsy(Galenos Yayincilik, 2017) Canbay, Ozden; Huzmeli, Esra Dogru; Katayifci, Nihan; Celik, MesutIntroduction: Aim of this study was to functionally evaluate temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in children with Cerebral palsy (CP). Materials and Methods: After recording the individual's demographic information, questions about TMJ stiffness, presence of saliva, nutrition, oral splint, pain, respiratory system, history of epilepsy, chewing problems and disease were asked to the individuals and/or parents. Mandibular mobility was evaluated with length measurement and neck muscle strength was evaluated with manual muscle test. Results: It was found that 15% individuals with CP who participated in the study, had jaw sensitivity, stiffness and locked up, 30% had headache, 25 % had bruxism, 15 % had nail biting and 25 % had otalgia. Swallowing problems were seen majorly in boys than girls (p<0.05). Conclusions: It was seen that children with CP have TMJ problems. Literature on this area is limited so it was thought that research is needed about prevention and treatment of TMJ disorders.
