    EFFECT OF SIMULATED PATIENT USE ON LEARNING MOTIVATION AND STUDENT FEEDBACK IN PHYSIOTHERAPY AND REHABILITATION EDUCATION: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL
    (TURKEY ASSOC PHYSIOTHERAPISTS, 2020-01-01) Alaca, Nuray; Safran, Elif Esma; Cagri, Dilek; Feyzioglu, Ozlem
    Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of simulated patient (SP) use for cervical region assessment on learning motivation and student feedback in undergraduate physiotherapy and rehabilitation (PTR) education. Methods: Sixty volunteered second grade students (46 females) participating in PTR Measurement and Evaluation course were included. Students were randomly divided into three groups: theoretical-practical (TP) course, SP interaction course and TP-SP taking both courses. Pre-post knowledge test including 10 multiple-choice questions was applied before and immediately after the lessons. Instructional Materials Motivation Survey (IMMS) was applied after the lessons. Student feedback (anxiety-stress-motivation-usefulness) scores were recorded before, immediately after, and one week after the lessons. Results: The post knowledge test scores of the TP and TP-SP groups were significantly higher than the SP group (p<0.001). The pre-lesson anxiety of the SP and TP-SP groups was higher than the TP group (SP p=0,002 and TP-SP p=0,004). After the completion of the lessons, anxiety levels of the SP group were still higher than the TP group (p=0.002). Motivation level of the SP and TU group were increased after the training (p=0.001). Motivation level of the TP-SP was still higher than the TP group one week later (p=0.004). The TP-SP group's IMMS findings were statistically higher than the other groups (p=0.005). Conclusion: We suggest that cervical region assessment should be combined with the TP course and SP interaction in the learning process and that it is beneficial to use the SP interaction in PTR undergraduate education.

    Physiotherapy Program Applied After Liver Transplantation: Its Effect on Physical Fitness and Mobility
    (GALENOS PUBL HOUSE, 2022-01-01) Bayraktar, Seda; Atici, Emine; Safran, Elif Esma; Safran, Ertugrul
    Objective: To investigate the effects of therapeutic exercises added to the comprehensive chest physiotherapy program after liver transplantation on physical fitness, movement level and kinesophobia. Methods: Forty individuals with liver transplantation were included in the study. Individuals were divided into two groups by using simple randomization method. The first group was included in the comprehensive chest physiotherapy program. In addition to the comprehensive chest physiotherapy, combined therapeutic exercises with respiration were added to the program of the second group. The patients were included in the treatment program for 4 weeks, 1 session a day, and 5 days a week. Physical and demographic characteristics of the individuals were recorded. ``Senior Fitness Test{''}, ``Patient Mobility Scale and Observer Mobility Scale{''}, ``Tampa Kinesophobia scale{''} were used to evaluate physical fitness, movement level and kinesophobia, respectively. Results: Physical and demographic characteristics of the individuals were recorded. ``Senior Fitness Test{''}, ``Patient Mobility Scale and Observer Mobility Scale{''}, ``Tampa Kinesophobia scale{''} were used to evaluate physical fitness, movement level and kinesophobia, respectively. According to the results of ``Senior Fitness Test{''} aerobic endurance, lower extremity muscle endurance, dynamic The improvement in balance and agility parameters was significantly higher in group 2 (p<0.05). Results of the ``Patient Mobility Scale{''} showed significant improvements in post-treatment measurements in both groups (p<0.001). The development in the 2nd group showed a significant difference compared to the 1st group (p<0.05). While a significant improvement was observed in both groups in the ``Observer Mobility Scale{''} and ``Tampa Kinesophobia Scale{''} scores after treatment (p<0.001), no significant difference was found between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: The therapeutic exercise program added to breathing exercises after liver transplantation increased physical fitness, and also had positive effects on movement level and kinesophobia.
