Objectives:
The purpose of this study was to determine the motor function of the abdominal muscles in singers with and without functional voice disorders and to examine them for possible differences. Additionally, the breathing behaviour and posture control was investigated.
Study Design
Observational study.
Methods:
Female subjects (n = 20) with differing levels of professional competence were used to provide the data for analysis. By using the Singing Voice Handicap Index (SVHI) the grade of dysphonia could be measured, and the subjects were organized in groups. The change of muscle thickness of the M. transversus abdominis (TVA) and the M. obliquus internus abdominis (OIA) during different singing tasks was measured by using ultrasound. The subjects were then asked to perform the Abdominal Hollowing Test (AHT) with the STABILIZER. Finally, the subjects were all filmed while singing. The videos recordings of the singing sessions were analysed by an independent clinical expert regarding breathing and secondary motor activities (SMA). For the statistical analysis, the Mann-Whitney-U Test and the Chi-Square-Test was mainly used.
Results:
The results showed a significantly thinner TVA in the group with dysphonia in comparison to the group without dysphonia. Ultrasound measurements showed significantly higher changes of muscle thickness of the TVA during singing tasks in the group with dysphonia. Regarding the AHT there was a significant difference between the two groups. The group with dysphonia was not able to increase the pressure by 15mmHg. Furthermore, the healthy subjects demonstrated abdominal breathing, while the group with dysphonia present with thoracic breathing. Additionally, it was noted that the subjects with dysphonia showed a higher level of associated movements especially at and/or on the lumbar spine, cervical spine and the left arm and shoulder.
Conclusion:
Differences in TVA-recruitment, breathing behaviour and secondary motor activities while singing were found. This study sparks new ideas for neuromusculoskeletal assessments and therapy.

Obwohl sich die Anforderungen im Sport und dem Musizieren ähneln, ist die Musikerphysiotherapie längst nicht so entwickelt wie die Sportphysiotherapie. Dabei lassen sich die sogenannten „Performance-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders“ erfolgreich mit Manueller Therapie oder Physiotherapie, z. B. mit Hilfe einer Bewegungsanalyse, therapieren. Prof. Dr. med. Christoff Zalpour gibt einen Überblick über das Feld der Musikerphysiotherapie, deren Potenzial noch lange nicht vollends erschlossen ist.
Hintergrund
Präventive Maßnahmen werden im Rahmen der Gesundheitsförderung immer bedeutsamer. Die regelmäßige Bewegung führt u. a. zu einer Stärkung des Herz-Kreislauf-Systems sowie zur Reduktion von muskuloskelettalen Beschwerden. Angestellte von Hochschulen sowie Studierende leiden häufig unter muskuloskelettalen Beschwerden.
Ziel
Ziel der Kundenbefragung ist es, die Zufriedenheit mit dem hochschulinternen Fitnessstudio INMOVE abzufragen, das rein physiotherapeutisch konzipiert ist. Mithilfe des Fragebogens sollen v. a. die Bereiche der Zufriedenheit, der physiotherapeutischen Betreuung sowie die subjektive Lebensqualität beurteilt werden.
Methode
Es wurde eine Kundenbefragung mit 26 Fragen, welche in vier Abschnitte eingeteilt sind, durchgeführt. Die geschlossenen Fragen wurden deskriptiv ausgewertet und die acht offenen Fragen wurden mit der Kernsatzmethode nach Leithäuser und Volmerg (1988) ausgewertet.
Ergebnisse
An der Befragung nahmen insgesamt 70 Trainierende (weiblich: 22/31,2 %, männlich: 48/68,8 %) teil. Anhand der Ergebnisse zeigt sich, dass die Teilnehmenden die Frage „Inwieweit sind die Kunden des hier genannten INMOVE mit dem Fitnessstudio zufrieden?“ mit „ziemlich zutreffend“ und „zutreffend“ beantworteten. Die zweite Forschungsfrage „Ist die physiotherapeutische Betreuung adäquat für das Fitnessstudio?“ kann mit „ziemlich zutreffend“ beantwortet werden. Die dritte Forschungsfrage bezog sich auf die Verbesserung der subjektiven Lebensqualität. Die Antwortenverteilung spiegelt, dass die Teilnehmenden diesen Themenbereich mit überwiegend „trifft genau zu“ oder „trifft ziemlich zu“ beantworteten.
Schlussfolgerung
Anhand der Kundenbefragung konnte die Zufriedenheit sowie die Auswirkungen auf die subjektive Lebensqualität beurteilt werden. Es lässt sich aus den Ergebnissen ableiten, dass ein hochschulinternes Fitnessstudio dabei helfen kann, Alltagsstress abzubauen und somit präventiv bei muskuloskelettalen Beschwerden nützlich ist.

Objective
Brass players are exposed to high musculoskeletal strains during their instrumental play. Various assessments can be used to measure these strains, whereby a targeted therapy can also be supported. The aim of this study was to review literature concerning assessments used in quantitatively based studies about the analysis of musculoskeletal loads of brass players.
Data sources
The Cochrane Library, PubMed, CINAHL, PEDro as well as the journal “Medical Problems of Performing Artists” were searched for relevant studies.
Study selection
Two reviewers independently applied the inclusion and exclusion criteria to select potential studies. A third reviewer was involved in the case of discrepancies.
Data extraction
Two reviewers independently extracted the data.
Data synthesis
A total of 73 studies conducted between 2004 and 2019 were included. Within a total of 30 studies, 18 assessments could be found that collect 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional kinematic data using video- or image-based analysis of posture, sonographic, optoelectronic and various electromagnetic systems. In 7 studies kinetic data were measured by force-transducers, pressure platforms, stabilizer and dynamometer. Fifteen studies used clinical examinations and additional assessments to screen individual body regions and 9 studies derived electromyography measurements from a total of 25 muscles. Thirty-one partially validated questionnaires were used to record musculoskeletal pain of brass players.
Conclusions
A variety of assessments can be used to optimize analysis and treatment procedures in research and clinical work. Future studies should both examine quality criteria of the various assessment methods and validate clinical examinations and questionnaires.
Currently, the treatment of musicians is an interprofessional approach. Playing-related health complaints may impact the performance of a musician. In Germany, a medical consulting hour for musicians exists, but those for athletes in sports medicine are not so common. The diagnosing and treatment procedure within the physiotherapy consultation for musicians follows a specific concept-b and requires knowledge of instruments and musician-specific complaints. Based on the consulting hour in a clinic in Osnabrueck, 614 case reports were part of this sample, of which 558 data sets were complete. The focus of the analysis is the instrument and the primary complaint. Also, the type of therapy is characterized, and the amount is calculated. Primary complaints of musicians, in general, are found most frequently in the spine and upper extremity. Musician complaints are different between instruments. Instrumentalists have a significantly higher chance to suffer from a primary complaint in the area of the upper extremity. Furthermore, the groups without an instrument (e.g., singing or dancing) are developing complaints in the anatomical area which they primarily use. Therefore, these types of therapy were used: physiotherapy, manual therapy, and osteopathy with an average of 5.9 treatment units. This study underpinned the importance of musician-specific physiotherapy as a profession to treat musicians. Also, an interdisciplinary approach is necessary to treat all aspects of complaints.
