OPEN ACCESS Since December 2019, an outbreak of novel corona virus disease was reported in Wuhan, which has subsequently affected more than 160 countries worldwide. The ongoing outbreak has been declared as a pandemic by WHO, a global public health emergency. Several countries are successfully ighting with the pandemic by taking strict measures like nationwide lockdown or by sequestering the areas that were suspected of having risk of community spread. The corona virus pandemic has upended our educational system worldwide [1-3].

A cochlear implant (CI) is a surgically implanted electronic device that transmits sounds directly to the auditory nerve through electrical stimulation of the cochlea. It has become the standard of care for severe or profound losses in hearing and indeed has produced the irst substantial restoration of a lost or absent human sense using a medical intervention. It has proven to be a useful treatment option for individuals with severe-to-profound hearing loss by providing improved access to one’s surrounding auditory environment. Both postlingually deafened adults and prelingually deafened children can bene it from a CI [1]. The goal of the present study is to describe the epidemiological characteristics, the surgical approach and the outcomes of our experience regarding the aural rehabilitation by cochlear implantation.

Context: Musculoskeletal disorder are injuries or pain in the human musculoskeletal system including the joints, ligaments, muscles, nerve, tendon and structure that support limbs, neck and back. These conditions generally results in pain and functional impairments. Prevention strategies are needed early in the apprentice training program to reduce the potential disability associated with work-related musculoskeletal symptom disorders.

Introduction: Leadership is a key characteristic needed for physical therapists and physical therapist assistants to deliver primary care in the healthcare environment. There is a need for increasing leaders in the physical therapy profession, however, there is no published research to assist with initiating leadership at the student level.

Background: The use of a custom-made orthotic plantar device is referenced as a true sensor-motor facilitation tool for the control of the postural orthostatic and orthodynamic position in patients with Parkinson’s disease. Aim: To outline the postural and kinematic effect of a pro-ergonomic multilayer foot insole versus a custommade carbon-kevlar dynamic foot insole in a cohort of patients affected by extrapyramidal disease. Setting: A rehabilitation institute for the treatment of neurological and orthopaedic gait disorders. Methods: A sample of 8 patients (mean age of 82.6), of whom 4 affected by Parkinson’s disease (P) and 4 by Parkinsonism (PS) were recruited for the aim of this study. In line with our inclusion criteria (clinical-functional diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease or Parkinsonism, Webster scale ≤ 20, Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) ≥ 18), the study design developed in 2 times: a. time T1 (or evaluation time), in which recruited patients affected by Parkinson’s disease or Parkinsonism were evaluated at the Hospital and Noble Resting House Paolo Richiedei through an accurate functional (Conley scale, Barthel Index scale, Tinetti scale and the Berg Balance Scale), postural evaluation (VPA) and walking examination (VGA, baropodometric evaluation, kinematic gait evaluation through WIVA system); to each group of patients of our study were therefore entrusted 4 foot-insoles, of which 2 synthetic and 2 carbon-kevlar custom-made foot-insoles called PRODYNAMIC; at the end of this step, patients started with our integrated rehabilitative treatment course. b. time T2 (or experimental time; 90 days from T1), a new clinical-instrumental evaluation of each patient was performed, repeating the clinical-functional and instrumental evaluation performed at the time T1 in a specular way; this assessment was performed in FW condition, with personal footwear and previously acquired foot-insoles used during the evaluation at the T1 time. Results: Most of our patients have been able to fi nd benefi t from the use of the plantar orthosis and integrated rehabilitation treatment so as to bring some modifi cations within personal postural attitude, recording an improvement but not uniform change within the sample. The results obtained by comparing the VPA at time T1 and at time T2 explain how patients affected by both clinical forms tend to establish incorrect postural attitudes due to stiffness and appearance of hypertonic plasticity, which become then structured and only partially modifi able. There was a general performance improvement in line with the VGA: within the P.B group, we observed with the use of the Prodynamic insole a partial or even complete normalization of the dynamic heel-contact phase, a better alignment of the COP in its excursion from the 1st to the 2nd rocker phase of the step, a notable facilitation to the inertial thrust in progress in the 3rd and 4th rocker phase, an improvement in the eccentric control of the patellofemoral alig

Context: Mobile phones have entered our lives through technological developments, becoming the most commonly used technological device, there advances have had a huge impact on many walks of life. Technology gives human beings good effects such as convenient everyday life. There has been a progressive increase in both the number and proportion of the aged in India over time and as age advances there is decline in motor and cognitive functioning. As the age increases, the reaction time also seems to increase. Older adults can benefit from the use of smartphones in a number of ways. Aims: The aim of this study was to observe the Effect of Smartphone Addiction on Reaction time (RT) in Elderly Population. Setting and design: This was an experimental study.
