Efficacy of Ice and Shortwave Diathermy in the Management of Osteoarthritis of the Knee – a Preliminary Report
African Journal of Biomedical Research, Vol. 7 (2004); 107 - 111 ISSN 1119 – 5096 © Ibadan Biomedical Communications Group Available online at http://www.bioline.org.br/md Full Length Research Article EFFICACY OF ICE AND SHORTWAVE DIATHERMY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF OSTEOARTHRITIS OF THE KNEE – A PRELIMINARY REPORT ADEGOKE, B.O.A* AND GBEMINIYI, M.O. Physiotherapy Department, College of Medicine University of Ibadan Nigeria This study was designed to compare the effects of shortwave diathermy (SWD) and ice on pain, range of motion and function in osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Subjects were fourteen patients (4 males and 10 females) aged 40-70years diagnosed as having OA of the knee. Subjects were assigned into either the SWD or ice treatment groups, as they became available. All subjects received routine adjunct therapeutic exercises, were excluded from analgesic drugs and were treated thrice weekly during the four -week duration of the study. Subjects were assessed at the beginning and end of the study for pain, range of motion (ROM) and function using visual analog scale, universal goniometer and functional index questionnaire respectively. Data were subjected to descriptive statistics of means and standard deviation and inferential statistics of independent and paired t-tests. Results showed that while the subjects in the SWD group had significantly greater ROM and function than the ice group at the beginning of the study, both groups were not statistically significantly different on all dependent variables at the end of the study. Paired -ttest also indicated that the ice group improved significantly on all three dependent variables while the SWD group improved significantly in pain and ROM only. -

Current Practices, Protocols, and Rationales of Diathermy Use by Occupational Therapists
PRACTICES, PROTOCOLS, AND RATIONALES OF DIATHERMY 2 Abstract The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of use of diathermy by occupational therapists in skilled nursing facilities (SNF) and its purported effectiveness. A survey was completed by 90 occupational therapists (response rate of 36%) who were members of the American Occupational Therapy Association, were listed in the practice area of SNF/long-term care (LTC) facility, and who had experience working in a SNF. Results showed that 54% of the participants had experience using diathermy in SNFs nationwide. The majority of participants with diathermy experience (94%) indicated that they typically implemented diathermy as a preparatory treatment before a functional activity and most participants (80%) administered diathermy for 16 to 30 minutes. The most common objectives when using diathermy were reducing pain (96%) and increasing range of motion (83%). The findings indicated that diathermy was being used for a wide range of diagnoses and symptoms, and that there were discrepancies in how and why occupational therapists administered diathermy in a SNF setting. Although occupational therapists with diathermy experience most frequently (48%) reported “usually” (i.e., 61-80% of the time) seeing a positive effect, many did not know the technicalities of administering diathermy, including the frequency (MHz) used (44%) and how the modality was reimbursed (11%). Additionally, there were conflicting results in diathermy being used for diagnoses and/or symptoms for which it is contraindicated. Due to a lack of research on diathermy use within occupational therapy literature, experimental studies to determine the effectiveness of diathermy would greatly benefit the field of occupational therapy in its effort to be an evidence-based practice. -
