Rehabilitation of a patient with CNS damage through positioning and transfers

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2019
Rehabilitation as a process of return to fitness should take place at every stage of the disease. Stimulation to restore lost motor function should take place all day, including when lying in bed or transferring from one position to another.

Upright patient positioning for pelvic radiotherapy treatments

open access: yesTechnical Innovations & Patient Support in Radiation Oncology, 2022
Highlights • The upright positioning is associated with a reasonable first positioning and repositioning time when 1 RTT was involved, and a much shorter duration when 2 RTT were involved;• The inter-fraction repositioning was on average below 1 mm ...
