Abstract:

The desire to ambulate hospitalized patients is tempered by their risk of falling. Research articulates the health-related benefits of ambulation, yet routinely providing this intervention is challenging. This descriptive survey-design study obtained data from consented licensed and unlicensed direct-care providers, which assessed their knowledge, values, and perceived barriers associated with routine ambulation of patients receiving care in a hospital setting. Analyses of these data conclude that the subjects were knowledgeable about and value ambulating patients. The most frequently cited barrier to routine ambulation was an inadequate staff number, followed closely by an unexpected rise in volume and patient acuity. Interventions aimed at improving the ambulation of patients should include the results of this study.

Abstract:

Significant differences were observed in thigmotaxis, ambulation, and latency to move (time to start ambulating) between highly aggressive (TA) and low aggressive (TNA) male mice. The former displayed more thigmotaxis, ambulated more, and had a shorter latency to move than the TNA animals. Also they voided a greater number of urinary spots and defecated less than TNA. Further they were superior to the TNA mice in maze-learning capacity. The tendency to enter inner partitions of the field as well as total ambulation increased after learning by TA mice. The training toward nonaggressiveness of TA mice suppressed aggressive responses, thigmotaxis, and the number of urinary spots but enhanced defecation All measures returned to their initial levels after one month of rest. The attacking behaviour of TA animals increased both thigmotaxis and ambulation.

Abstract:

Context: Foot and ankle injuries are common and often require a nonweight-bearing period of immobilization for the involved leg. This nonweight-bearing period usually results in muscle atrophy for the involved leg. There is a dearth of objective data describing muscle activation for different ambulatory aids that are used during the aforementioned nonweight-bearing period. Objective: To compare activation amplitudes for 4 leg muscles during (1) able-bodied gait and (2) ambulation involving 3 different ambulatory aids that can be used during the acute phase of foot and ankle injury care. Design: Within-subject, repeated measures. Setting: University biomechanics laboratory. Participants: Sixteen able-bodied individuals (7 females and 9 males). Intervention: Each participant performed able-bodied gait and ambulation using 3 different ambulatory aids (traditional axillary crutches, knee scooter, and a novel lower-leg prosthesis). Main Outcome Measure: Muscle activation amplitude quantified via mean surface electromyography amplitude throughout the stance phase of ambulation. Results: Numerous statistical differences (P < .05) existed for muscle activation amplitude between the 4 observed muscles, 3 ambulatory aids, and able-bodied gait. For the involved leg, comparing the 3 ambulatory aids: (1) knee scooter ambulation resulted in the greatest vastus lateralis activation, (2) ambulation using the novel prosthesis and traditional crutches resulted in greater biceps femoris activation than knee scooter ambulation, and (3) ambulation using the novel prosthesis resulted in the greatest gastrocnemius activation (P < .05). Generally speaking, muscle activation amplitudes were most similar to able-bodied gait when subjects were ambulating using the knee scooter or novel prosthesis. Conclusions: Type of ambulatory aid influences muscle activation amplitude. Traditional axillary crutches appear to be less likely to mitigate muscle atrophy during the nonweighting, immobilization period that often follows foot or ankle injuries. Researchers and clinicians should consider these results when recommending ambulatory aids for foot or ankle injuries.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Our ambulation guideline following LE grafting is loosely defined as bedrest vs. lateral transfers only until POD#5. Patient’s mobility status is increased POD#5 with WB per physician discretion. A proposal was created to initiate mobility earlier than POD#5 for patients with LE grafts. Two of our three surgeons were in agreement with the early ambulation protocol. The third surgeon wished to follow the traditional ambulation practice guideline. This request was respected and made known to all staff for carryover. This afforded us the opportunity of a comparison group with our center’s traditional standard of care functioning as the control group. Methods The proposed early ambulation protocol was influenced by evidence-based practice guidelines as well as surgeon input. Criteria was based upon the location of grafting, graft crossing a joint, size of wound being grafted (< or = 400 cm), and general medical status of the patient. Our early ambulation protocol was established as follows: POD#1 Lateral transfers with involved LE elevated. POD#2 Dependent LE at edge of bed, WBAT short distance ambulation to chair or bathroom with AD. POD#3–4 Increase ambulation as tolerated, assess need for continued splinting, appropriateness of progressive ambulation, AROM exercises. POD# 4–5 Progress ambulation with AD as needed, stairs as needed for discharge, home exercise program. Our inclusion criteria consisted of patients of any age, LE burns with STSG not involving joints/involving joints with appropriate immobilization. Exclusion criteria consisted of fractures of involved LE, patients who were non-ambulatory at baseline, wounds >400 cm2, STSG to plantar aspect of foot, medically unstable patients, and surgeon discretion. Results Data reviewed over an eight month period of time yielded 27 patients who met our established criteria; 26 had no graft loss on the first dressing change. The patient with graft loss was attributed to graft placement directly over bone of the distal phalanx. Comparatively, no loss was noted in the control group with 10/10 patients ambulating on POD#5. Of note, early ambulation was granted for several patients with larger surface areas with no graft loss demonstrated, but were not included in this study. Conclusions In conclusion, 96% of patients demonstrated no graft loss with first dressing change following our early ambulation guideline. All patients who followed the traditional ambulation guideline demonstrated no graft loss on the first dressing change. Based on our findings, early mobility is not detrimental to graft integrity following specific established guidelines. Applicability of Research to Practice Our data supports early mobility of LE grafting up to 400 cm2 with 96% success rate. This may be supportive of further research with early mobility involving a larger surface area of LE STSG.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: As the role of the clinical exercise physiologist expands, early mobility is an area of potential focus. A rural Midwestern intensive care unit began a mobility program alongside its open-heart surgery program. The mobility specialist, who was trained as a clinical exercise physiologist, was tasked to ambulate the open-heart surgery patients. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the effectiveness of a mobility specialist on ambulation frequency and distance on post open-heart surgery patients. Methods: Data were collected retrospectively for 1 month on ambulation frequency and distance to determine the mobility specialist's impact on the variables. Results: Data was collected on 18 patients (15 male, 3 female) over the month. Overall, when the mobility specialist was present, patients ambulated further (M = 421 feet versus 189 feet, P = 0.039) and more often (M = 3.32 versus 1.43 ambulations per day, P < 0.001). Conclusion: In this study, having a mobility specialist with a background in exercise physiology led to more frequent and distant ambulation. Therefore, a mobility specialist should be considered an integral member of a multidisciplinary clinical team in rural intensive care units.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of how limb dominance and joint immobilization alter markers of physical demand and muscle activation during ambulation with axillary crutches. In a crossover, counterbalanced study design, physically active females completed ambulation trials with three conditions: (1) bipedal walking (BW), (2) axillary crutch ambulation with their dominant limb (DOM), and (3) axillary crutch ambulation with their nondominant limb (NDOM). During the axillary crutch ambulation conditions, the non-weight-bearing knee joint was immobilized at a 30-degree flexion angle with a postoperative knee stabilizer. For each trial/condition, participants ambulated at 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 mph for five minutes at each speed. Heart rate (HR) and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) were monitored throughout. Surface electromyography (sEMG) was used to record muscle activation of the medial gastrocnemius (MG), soleus (SOL), and tibialis anterior (TA) unilaterally on the weight-bearing limb. Biceps brachii (BB) and triceps brachii (TB) sEMG were measured bilaterally. sEMG signals for each immobilization condition were normalized to corresponding values for BW.HR (p < 0.001) and RPE (p < 0.001) were significantly higher for both the DOM and NDOM conditions compared to BW but no differences existed between the DOM and NDOM conditions (p > 0.05). No differences in lower limb muscle activation were noted for any muscles between the DOM and NDOM conditions (p > 0.05). Regardless of condition, BB activation ipsilateral to the ambulating limb was significantly lower during 0.6 mph (p = 0.005) and 0.8 mph (p = 0.016) compared to the same speeds for BB on the contralateral side. Contralateral TB activation was significantly higher during 0.6 mph compared to 0.8 mph (p = 0.009) and 1.0 mph (p = 0.029) irrespective of condition. In conclusion, limb dominance appears to not alter lower limb muscle activation and walking intensity while using axillary crutches. However, upper limb muscle activation was asymmetrical during axillary crutch use and largely dependent on speed. These results suggest that functional asymmetry may exist in upper limbs but not lower limbs during assistive device supported ambulation.

Abstract:

Peripatetic by nature yet polymorphous in form, the topic of fan pilgrimage expresses a significant dearth in cult film and media scholarship. Whilst the concept of pilgrimage has been classically linked to religious duty and moral obligation, its ability to straddle both traditionalist and secularist rationales amidst increased globalisation makes such ambiguous mobility ripe for closer analysis. In this thesis, I will theorise fan pilgrimage using a series of itinerant fan taxonomies to recontextualise the role of the pilgrim and its function within select fan groups. Utilising the critical literature of Zygmunt Bauman, Victor Turner, and Roger C. Aden, respectively, Chapter 1 reevaluates ideas of community and reconfigures the spatiotemporal theories of performance articulated by Richard Schechner through fan pilgrimage and performative communitas. Chapter 2 explores how theories of play and everyday life create my first fan taxonomy: the ludic pilgrim. Via the play theory of Johan Huizinga and Roger Caillois as well as the theories of everyday life held by Erving Goffman, I argue for a correlation between play and costume through the case study of the otaku – i.e. fans of Japanese anime and manga. Chapter 3 employs fashion theory to subcultural style and reconsiders the value of the goth subculture and female vampire fandom by way of my second fan taxonomy: the subsartorial pilgrim. In Chapter 4, The Rocky Horror Picture Show serves as my main case study to theorise subcultural liveness during screenings of Rocky Horror and highlight my third fan taxonomy: the performative pilgrim. Examining the pilgrim as tourist through concepts such as fan tourism and flâneurism and by way of case studies such as Blade Runner, Disney theme parks, and The Lord of the Rings blockbuster trilogy, Chapter 5 unpacks my fourth fan taxonomy: the postmodern pilgrim. Finally, Chapter 6 recasts The Big Lebowski as a cult film that is primarily consumed by fans via Lebowski Fest. This chapter will elucidate how narrative, replay culture, and the documentary film The Achievers: The Story of the Lebowski Fans all reshape the meaning of Lebowski and spotlight its classification as an itinerantextual cult film.

Abstract:

Legged walking machines offer a number of advantages over conventional wheeled or tracked vehicles. They can reach terrain that is inaccessible to conventional vehicles, and they leave fewer traces of their crossing behind on terrain that has not been prepared for transportation. This thesis details the development of a heuristic package that can be used to determine the movement plan of a longitudinally oriented quadruped walking vehicle ambulating over rough terrain. An investigation of walking machine research to date revealed that such work had not been done for quadrupeds that adjust their attitude to follow the terrain. This terrain following strategy was employed in the development of these heuristics because it provides superior movement capabilities on sloped terrain. The heuristics were tested extensively on a variety of simulated terrain conditions. These conditions consisted of different combinations of underlying terrain attitudes and terrain roughness levels. The heuristics performed well during the simulations, and the simulated machine responded as the theoretical analysis had indicated. During the course of this work, a number of new ideas related to quadruped ambulation were developed. These included how to generate the overall movement plan of a quadruped walking machine, how foothold locations can be guided to best facilitate smooth machine turning, how the speed of a walking machine can be maintained at consistent levels, and how to prevent any possibility of leg collisions. In addition, in-depth analyses were made on how stride length affects quadruped machine speed, what conditions force such machines to halt their forward movement, and how a practical machine should be designed.

Abstract:

During ambulation, lower-extremity joint angles and net moments influence knee joint load. It is unclear which mechanical variables most strongly correlate with acute articular cartilage (AC) catabolism in response to ambulation. Purpose: To determine which mechanical variables are most strongly correlated to acute AC catabolism, and to test the acute effect of ambulation speed on AC catabolism, while controlling for load frequency. Methods: 18 able-bodied subjects (9 male, 9 female; age = 23 ± 2 y; mass = 68.3 ± 9.6 kg; height = 1.70 ± 0.08 m) completed three separate ambulation sessions: slow (preferred walking speed), medium (+50% of walking speed), and fast (+100% of walking speed). For each session, subjects completed 4000 steps on an instrumented treadmill while ten high-speed cameras recorded synchronized video data. Various, discrete, three-dimensional joint kinematic and kinetic variables were averaged across 20 total stance phases (5 stance phases at 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 steps). Blood samples were collected pre-, post-, 30-min post-, and 60-min post-ambulation. Serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) concentration was determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between serum COMP change and lower-extremity joint angles and moments. A mixed model ANCOVA was used to evaluate serum COMP concentration between sessions across time. Results: Peak ankle inversion, knee extension, knee abduction, hip flexion, hip extension, and hip abduction moment, and knee flexion angle at impact, explained 61.4% of the total variance in serum COMP change (p < 0.001), due to ambulation. COMP concentration increased 28%, 18%, and 5% immediately after ambulation for the running, jogging, and walking sessions, respectively. All sessions were significantly different immediately post-ambulation (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Certain lower-extremity joint mechanics are associated with acute AC catabolism, due to ambulation. Several key mechanical variables (e.g., peak knee extension, knee abduction, and hip abduction moments) explain much regarding the variance in serum COMP increase. These lower-extremity variables can be used to predict acute AC catabolism, allowing researchers and clinicians to better predict and/or understand AC catabolism. Additionally, when load frequency is controlled, increased ambulation speed acutely results in increased AC catabolism. Ambulation speed does not, however, influence serum COMP elevation duration. Joint mechanics and load frequency appear to be responsible for the magnitude of COMP increase, while duration of COMP elevation post-ambulation is dictated by load frequency.

Full text

Abstract:

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the treatment of choice for end-stage knee osteoarthritis. Growth in the number of procedures performed annually in the United States is expected to increase steadily. Post-operative rehabilitation settings vary and include both institutional and community based physical therapy (PT) services. Despite access to PT, deficits in gait often persist for months and even years after surgery. Slow gait speed, asymmetrical walking patterns, and prolonged time in double-limb support following the TKA often lead to the need for an assistive device for walking and prolong the rehabilitation phase. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze early gait during inpatient rehabilitation to quantify both the improvements made and deficits that remain in important gait variables. This study identifies predictor variables that contribute to the variance in discharge ambulation device use and IRF length of stay. Subjects: A convenience sample of 230 patients discharged to an IRF following a TKA (160 following a single TKA and 70 following a bilateral procedure) was used for this analysis. Method: Paired t-tests were used to compare temporal and spatial gait variables from the initial gait assessment compared to the discharge gait assessment in patients following single TKA to determine remaining deficits. Right vs left comparisons were made for patients following a bilateral procedure. A binary logistic regression was used to identify predictors associated with the need for a two-handed ambulation device at discharge. A multiple linear regression developed a model to assess predictors of the inpatient rehabilitation length of stay. Finally, a self-assessment to evaluate patient confidence with walking (mGES scale) was correlated to actual gait speed performed on the gait analysis in a sample of patients from our study population. Findings: Deficits in step length, step time and percent of single limb support remained in the involved limb compared to uninvolved limb at discharge from inpatient rehabilitation following single TKA; no limb differences between the right and left side were noted in patients after bilateral TKA. The discharge gait speed of 54.6 cm/sec for single TKA patients and discharge speed of 61.5 cm/sec for bilateral TKA patients is within the classification of limited community ambulators and making them appropriate for a home discharge. But despite improvement from admission to discharge, the gait speed for both groups in our study remain below the gait speed identified by prior studies 3-months following TKA surgery where speed reached 135 cm/sec. The need for a two-handed ambulation device, such as bilateral canes or a walker, was associated with slow walking speed and prior use of a device before surgery. A longer rehabilitation length of stay was associated with slower initial gait speed, lower motor FIM scores and reduced knee extension at admission. The mGES patient self-report conducted at the time of the discharge gait assessment showed a moderate correlation to the discharge gait speed; however, the pairing of the admission mGES with the admission gait speed was not significantly correlated.

Abstract:

The automated sensing scheme described in this paper has the potential to automatically capture, discriminate and classify transients in gait. The mechanical simplicity of the walking platform offers advantages over standard force plates. There is less restriction on dimensions offering the opportunity for multi-contact and multiple steps. This addresses the challenge of patient targeting and the evaluation of patients in a variety of ambulatory applications. In this work the sensitivity of the distributive tactile sensing method has been investigated experimentally. Using coupled time series data from a small number of sensors, gait patterns are compared with stored templates using a pattern recognition algorithm. By using a neural network these patterns were interpreted classifying normal and affected walking events with an accuracy of just under 90%. This system has potential in gait analysis and rehabilitation as a tool for early diagnosis in walking disorders, for determining response to therapy and for identifying changes between pre and post operative gait.

Abstract:

Diseases of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems have afflicted humans since recorded history. Similarly, injuries and related trauma of one form or another have impaired human ambulation or even made it impossible to stand, walk, run or even to sit or squat. Stretchers, crutches, wheelchairs, and exoskeletons have been developed to help improve the mobility of these disabled individuals, but often require assistance from others to some degree, limiting patient autonomy. To ascertain which assistive devices might be better suited to a particular patient with an ambulation disability or weakness, the healthcare providers must perform an assessment of the individual’s gait to first understand the underlying symptomatic deficits, diseases, or injuries. This paper reviews how exoskeletons can with respect to the gait cycle assist the weak and elderly as well as patients with specific diseases or injuries that impact ambulation.

Abstract:

During ambulation, every maneuver causes the feet to impose a tangential loading at each contact with the floor. If the frictional resistance at the contact point is less than the associated tangential loading, slipping occurs and sometimes falling. There are five disciplines, some recently developed, that enable one to develop the general theory for predicting the number of walkers who will slip within a given time period on a statistically homogeneous and isotropic floor. These include force-plate studies, floor duty cycles, tribometry, extreme value theory of slipperiness, and floor reliability theory. When used with some additional bookkeeping notions, the general theory will be extended to real floors traversed by walkers with multiple ambulation styles and wearing a variety of footwear. In contrast, conventional slip and fall theory does not account for floor usage, different footwear and various ambulation styles, nor can it be used to determine the number of walkers who actually slip on a given floor.
