Abstract:
Purpose/Hypothesis: Mal de Debarquement Syndrome (MdDS) is a rare condition in which those afflicted perceive a chronic rocking or swaying sensation, often relieved when in motion and symptomatic when still. Etiology is uncertain; therefore, treatment options are limited. While there is reported success with medication, optokinetic stimulation or transcutaneous magnetic stimulation, there is no single treatment that works for all patients. This retrospective chart review investigated rehabilitation outcomes following sensorimotor, multi-axis, rotational (SMART) training to address MdDS symptom

Abstract:
Background Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the electrocardiogram (ECG), a risk for sudden cardiac death. A simple 'rule of thumb' method states that if a patient's heart rate is between 60-100 bpm, the QT interval should not be more than half the R-R interval. The clinical accuracy of this method has not been tested in the elderly. Objectives To determine if the 'rule of thumb' to calculate QT interval prolongation, is accurate, compared to the corrected QT interval calculated using Bazett's formula.

Approximately 35%-50% of older adults were discharged directly from the ICU to long-term care facilities due to the functioning loss of daily activities. Geriatric syndrome is a major contributing factor for functioning loss in older adults, however, its pattern and trajectory among ICU older adult patients have not been fully understood.
