objectives: low birth weight neonates need complementary interventions (e.g. tactile kinesthetic stimulation) to promote their development. this study was conducted to determine the effect of tactile- kinesthetic stimulation (tks) on motor development of low birth weight neonates. methods: in this clinical trial study, sample was made out of 40 inborn lbw neonates who were divided into two grou...

The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of superficial tactile- kinesthetic stimulation method on weight gain of low birth weight infants This is a quasi experimental, type of clinical trial study which was conducted on 54 low birth weight infants in Alzahra, Shahid Beheshti and Shariati hospitals was conducted by convenient sampling method. They were assigned to two groups of ...

abstract  background: the quality of life and standard of health care in a society is measured  by its preterm infants' mortality rate. the popularity and credibility of alternative  treatment such as touch therapy may be effective in preterm and low birth weight  infants in order to increase their survival rate. the aim of this study was to determine  the effect of touch intervention on the we...

BACKGROUND People learn in different ways: visually, aurally, by reading/writing, and kinesthetically. In our clinic, we use color-coded Asthma Action Cards to educate our patients and their caregivers on asthma management. Our teaching is largely aural based, with the cards providing reading and visual stimulation and hands-on practice with devices offering kinesthetic stimulation. OBJECTIVE...

[Purpose] This study evaluated the influence of vibratory stimulation-induced kinesthetic illusion on brain function after stroke. [Subjects] Twelve healthy individuals and 13 stroke patients without motor or sensory loss participated. [Methods] Electroencephalograms were taken at rest and during vibratory stimulation. As a neurophysiological index of brain function, we measured the μ-rhythm, w...

OBJECTIVE To verify the methods used by the clinical trials that assessed the effect of tactile/kinesthetic stimulation on weight gain in preterm infants and highlight the similarities and differences among such studies. SOURCES This review collected studies from two databases, PEDro and PubMed, in July of 2014, in addition to bibliographies. Two researchers assessed the relevant titles indep...
