Abstract
Physical exercise programs are useful and necessary for the treatment of schizophrenia. The aim of this study was to assess the experiences of participants with schizophrenia in an out-of-hospital exercise program designed and supervised by qualified exercise professionals. Thirty-five individuals with schizophrenia from the intervention group of the CORTEX-SP study were interviewed. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and content analysis was performed using inductive coding. Two main categories emerged: the importance of the program being conducted out-of-hospital, and the individuals responsible for the program being qualified exercise professionals. The participants highlighted the importance of conducting the program outside the psychiatric center since it gave them greater satisfaction. They perceived greater seriousness and a greater number of resources and felt encouraged to repeat the program or prolong it. The success of the program, in addition to the space, was due to the personnel in charge of the program, i.e., the qualified exercise professionals, and the fact that the activities were designed and supervised. Participants emphasized the qualifications of the exercise professionals, key for this type of program, their social skills and the level of involvement with participants and their follow-up.

Inspire self report scale (ISRS): A feasibility study of a Novel self report scale for people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. J Psychiatr Res 2023; 165:248-253. [PMID: 37531843 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychires.2023.05.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
Clinician-rated symptom scales are the current standard for outcome measures in Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) research. There has been growing interest in the development of self-report measures for people with SSD to support measurement-based care and inclusive research. We developed the Inspire Self Report Scale (ISRS), which measures the current magnitude of well-being, mood symptoms, psychosis, negative symptoms and cognition using 10 questions on a Likert or Visual analogue scale (VAS). The main aim of this report was to investigate the correlation and concordance between patient self-report and clinician ratings on the ISRS during a clinical encounter. When ratings were discordant, we sought to identify whether the participant's or psychiatrist's rating was more accurate. The results indicated a moderately strong statistically significant correlation between participant and clinician ratings. There was a moderate concordance between participant and clinician ratings on the ISRS. When the results were discordant, the participant ratings were assessed to be more accurate than the clinician rating over 70% of the time. The ISRS has distinct utility compared to existing scales due to the measurement of present symptom severity, capturing multiple clinical domains, and time efficiency and ease of use. Thus, it may be useful in clinical and research settings.

Abstract
Aging and its associated problems related to movement impacts the care of people with psychiatric disorders. This study sought to clarify the usefulness of 2D video analysis for evaluating shoulder range of motion (ROM) during upper limb exercises in patients with psychiatric disorders. Subjects (N=54) were patients with psychiatric disorders categorized as the following:having either a high or low activities of daily living (ADL) score using the Barthel Index;experiencing shoulder ROM limitation, and whether or not compensatory movements were exhibited. Compensatory movement was also considered in patients with Parkinsonism, cerebrovascular disease, and cognitive dysfunction. Shoulder joint ROM was measured using a goniometer and active ROM was captured using ImageJ. No significant difference between passive ROM measured by a goniometer and active ROM measured by ImageJ considering disease groups, ADL level, and shoulder ROM limitation was found. Factoring in compensatory movements, however, significant differences were found between passive and active ROM:existence compensatory movement group, left side (z=-2.30, p=0.02);nonexistence compensatory movement group, right side (z=-2.63, p<0.001). Image-evaluating devices help assess ROM in patients with psychiatric disorders, enhancing the development of physical rehabilitation programs to regain critical ADL, sustaining self-care capabilities.

Reliability and validity of physical fitness tests in people with mental disorders: A systematic review and meta-analysis. PHYSIOTHERAPY RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 26:e1904. [PMID: 33772978 DOI: 10.1002/pri.1904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2020] [Revised: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several tests are available to assess the different components of physical fitness, including cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, and flexibility. However, the reliability and validity of physical fitness tests in people with mental disorders has not been meta-analyzed. AIMS To examine the reliability, concurrent, and convergent validity of physical fitness tests in people with mental disorders. METHODS Studies evaluating the reliability, concurrent, and convergent validity of physical fitness tests in people with mental disorders were searched from major databases until January 20, 2020. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed pooling (1) reliability: test-retest correlations at two-time points, (2) convergent validity between submaximal tests and maximal protocols, or (3) concurrent validity between two submaximal tests. Associations are presented using r values and 95% confidence intervals. Methodological quality was assessed using the Quality Appraisal of Reliability Studies and the Critical Appraisal Tool. RESULTS A total of 11 studies (N = 504; 34% females) were included. Reliability of the fitness tests, produced r values ranging from moderate (balance test-EUROFIT; [r = 0.75 (0.60-0.85); p = 0.0001]) to very strong (explosive leg power EUROFIT; [r = 0.96 (0.93-0.97); p = 0.0001]). Convergent validity between the 6-min walk test (6MWT) and submaximal cardiorespiratory tests was moderate (0.57 [0.26-0.77]; p = 0.0001). Concurrent validity between the 2-min walk test and 6MWT (r = 0.86 [0.39-0.97]; p = 0.0004) was strong. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that physical fitness tests are reliable and valid in people with mental disorders.
