Then quality of life and mental health evaluation was done using SF-36 questionnaire and Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale respectively. An aerobic training program was given for 8 weeks,6 sessions per week with each session consisting of warm up & cool down period for 5-10 minutes and aerobic training of 15-45 minutes involving brisk walking, cycling, stair climbing at target heart rate 40%-60% of age predicted maximum heart rate. At the end of 8 weeks reassessment was done. Results: There was significant statistical difference found in physical functioning, role limitation due to physical health and due to emotional problems, energy levels, social functioning, pain, emotional well- being and general health post 8 weeks of aerobic training using Wilcoxon Signed Rank test p value 0.0001. Also there was statistically significant reduction in weight after aerobic training by using Paired t-test. Conclusion: We found that aerobic training improved quality of life and mental health in obese women. Also it induced weight loss in obese women. KEY WORDS: Obesity, aerobic training, quality of life, mental health,SF-36, Hospital Anxiety and depression scale. ]]> AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH ON PREVALENCE OF DISABILITY & WORK RELATED FEAR IN MARBLE FACTORY WORKERS IN ABU ROAD Sun, 11 Dec 2016 10:28:36 +0800 http://www.ijmhr.org/ijpr.4.6/IJPR.2016.181.pdf editor_physiotherapy@hotmail.com http://www.ijmhr.org/ijpr_contact.html Science, Physiotherapy, Rehabilitation COMPARISON OF TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL NERVE STIMULATION (TENS) AND DRY NEEDLING (DN) TREATMENT ON CHORNIC LOW BACK PAIN PARTICIPANTS - A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED STUDY Sun, 11 Dec 2016 10:29:37 +0800 http://www.ijmhr.org/ijpr.4.6/IJPR.2016.182.pdf editor_physiotherapy@hotmail.com http://www.ijmhr.org/ijpr_contact.html Science, Physiotherapy, Rehabilitation ASSESSMENT OF GAIT AS OUTCOME MEASURE FOLLOWING SENSORY-ENHANCED THERAPY IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE USING UNIFIED PARKINSON’S DISEASE RATING SCALE (PART III).

Most of them report an impaired health status because of a reduced level of activity. Proponents of yoga contend that it offers a gentle alternative exercise program that can be easily adapted for people with post stroke hemi-paresis to improve balance Subjects and Methods: Four subjects with chronic poststroke hemiparesis participated in this study. The primary outcome measures were the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Timed Up and go test (TUG) and Tinetti’s POMA(Performance oriented mobility assessment). The 4 week intervention phase consisted of 40 min yoga sessions, 3 times per week, in the subject's home. The primary outcome data were collected pre and post intervention. Results: All Subjects had improved BBS & POMA scores, and reduced TUG scores post intervention Discussion and Conclusion: The results suggest that yoga may be beneficial to post stroke hemiparetic patients. Further investigation is required to further examine the effects of yoga in this population.

Comparison of MMSE, TUG and POMA score at the end of week 4 in both group was found to statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study concluded, pranayamic breathing with conventional physiotherapy has shown improvement in cognition and balance in Parkinson’s patients. Implications : Pranayamic breathing can be used along with conventional physiotherapy to improve cognition and balance in Parkinson’s patients.
