Changes in urethral sphincter size following rehabilitation in older women with stress urinary incontinence
(2015-02)Introduction and hypothesis The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a pelvic floor muscle (PFM) rehabilitation program on the striated urethral sphincter in women over 60 years with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We hypothesized ... -
Clinical reasoning underlying acute care occupational therapists' assessment of rehabilitation potential after stroke or brain injury : a constructivist grounded theory study
(Wiley, 2021-12-22)Introduction In acute care hospitals, clinicians are expected to rapidly provide recommendations regarding patients' rehabilitation potential and candidacy for postacute rehabilitation. Some studies have investigated factors influencing referral to ... -
Combining scoping review and concept analysis methodologies to clarify the meaning of rehabilitation potential after acquired brain injury
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-06-18)Purpose: Clinicians make judgments about patients’ rehabilitation potential because it is considered by many as a prerequisite for referral to rehabilitation. However, the concept is rarely defined. This research aimed to clarify the concept of ... -
Comparison between transperineal ultrasound and digital dectection of levator ani trauma : can we improve the odds?
(2014-03)Aims To investigate the predictive ability of four digital assessment parameters to detect levator ani (LA) muscle defects (avulsion injury) and compare these to transperineal tomographic ultrasound images. Methods This was an observational ... -
Comparison of two methods for measuring the pubococcygeal line from sagittal-plane magnetic resonance imaging
(2011-11)Aims The pubococcygeal line (PCL) is an important reference line for determining measures of pelvic organ support on sagittal-plane magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); however, there is no consensus on where to place the posterior point of the PCL. ... -
