Occupational Performance Issues and Predictors of Dysfunction in College Instrumentalists - UIndy professors and students publish recent research in Medical Problems of Performing Artists


Music-related injuries among musicians, including younger musicians, have been well documented; however, minimal research has been completed with college-aged instrumentalists. The purpose of this research study was to describe the presence of physical symptoms in college-age musicians and the impact of these symptoms on music-playing and other daily occupations. Data collection was completed
on college instrumental music majors using two survey questionnaires, which documented the presence of physical symptoms in the upper limb and the impact of these symptoms on function. The results indicate that a significant number of students reported pain or discomfort that occurred during music-playing, at rest, and during other daily occupations. Results were consistent with the literature in regards to the prevalence of symptoms in female instrumentalists as compared to males and the occurrence of more symptoms in those individuals playing string instruments and piano as compared to other instrument groups. Also, as self-reported pain increased, a greater level of dysfunction in occupational performance was found. Results also indicated that when participants were already implementing intervention strategies, this was perhaps a predictor of the presence of pain and dysfunction. Health professionals should be encouraged to provide preventive education for student musicians and to use outcome measures, such as the Disabilities of the Hand, Arm, and Shoulder (DASH) outcome measure, to identify the potential for functional impairments.

Indiana's unemployment rate is now 5.8%. On July 18th the Indianapolis Star quoted economist Michael Hicks, "Indiana's rising unemployment reflects a decreaing national demand for goods.  Consumer spending declined because of the rise in gasoline prices." 

The Department of Labor reports that for workers with a bachelor's degree the unemployment rate drops to 2.7%.  This report  goes on to say workers aged 18 and over with a bachelor's degree earn approximately $23,000 more than workers with a high school diploma.

What does all of this mean?  If you are in the workplace without a bachelor's degree, you may want to begin working toward a degree. The School for Adult Learning at the University of Indianapolis is here to help you.  Our accelerated degree program has helped hundreds of adults complete their degree more quickly than traditional programs.  Our classes are accessible, flexible, and accelerated. The classes meet one night per week for five weeks.  And, we have help in place if you have been out of school for some time.

'No Time is the Perfect Time to Begin' is the title of a chapter in the book, “This year I will…” by M. J. Ryan, in which she writes about taking the first step to make a life change.  Her point—and one that is just as true for starting college as it is for starting a diet—is that waiting for the perfect time to begin means not ever getting started.  As an adult thinking about attending college you owe it to yourself to take the first step.  Of course, we’d like you to choose the accelerated degree program in the School for Adult Learning, but no matter where you decide to attend college, it is important you take the first step.

We often wonder what factors are most important to adults in choosing an accelerated degree program.  Convenience, location, and availability of financial aid come to mind, but I was reminded again in a conversation with a group of our students that quality and academic reputation are important to these adults.  That’s good to know because it means our students chose us because they wanted an education, not just a piece of paper with the word diploma on it.  These students also admitted that though they like to complain about some of the general education courses, they appreciated the variety of courses available—some even said they liked the way those courses expanded their horizons.

Mary Lindop,'08, stated, " It's like an extended family and I think anyone pursuing a degree here should know that.  You really have faculty and staff who really care about you."

Senator Hillary Clinton’s senior health policy adviser, Andrea Palm, and the president of the American Nurses Association, Becky Patton, visited the University of Indianapolis campus on April 15, 2008 to discuss the Clinton campaign’s healthcare platform and answer questions from UIndy faculty and students. This visit was part of a tour of nursing schools in the state of Indiana. This event offered a wonderful opportunity for our students, regardless of political background, to discuss healthcare issues with two highly influential shapers of national policy.

The China Experience:
An Educational and Clinical Exchange of Eastern and Western Physical Rehabilitation Practices
Authors: Petrosino, C., Shurig, MA., Bryant, S., Flora, V., McGowan, J., Wahl, A.

A delegation of four Doctor of Physical Therapy students and one faculty member from the Krannert School of Physical Therapy (KSPT) at the University of Indianapolis traveled to China in May of 2007. A community-based capstone project was conducted with a mission to observe and document cultural experiences while providing a mutual educational exchange for the KSPT delegation and Chinese students and faculty. Presentations on spinal stabilization given by the delegation provided current evidence-based trends of the Western physical therapy profession. Development of the interactive educational sessions included a thorough literature review of the culture, preparation of culturally sensitive presentations for select audiences, and the collection of data throughout the experience for analysis.

Study Description
A literature search was performed on the history and culture of China prior to the trip. The students focused their research on cultural sensitivity, traditional Chinese medicine practices, and current rehabilitation techniques in China. Funding for the trip was sought through University grants and private fundraising. From the initiation of the project, each group member independently documented their experience during the literature review, collection of funds, development of lectures, travel arrangement planning, experiences in China, and return from the trip. Data collection of observations while in China gave rich descriptions of the experience while reflective field notes gave individual interpretations. From the collected data, all information was transcribed into a Word document for analysis in a computerized qualitative assessment software program (NVivo 7.0). Common themes were developed from the observations and reflective notes of the delegation. A manuscript was produced reflecting the interactions, experiences, and knowledge exchanged between the KSPT delegation and Chinese students and faculty members. Through individual analysis by group members and coding of textual data into convergent and divergent themes, followed by aggregating convergent themes by group consensus, the most salient findings were elucidated.

Discussion & Conclusions
Exchanging knowledge and gaining understanding between Western and Eastern healthcare methods exposed both parties to specific treatment techniques and philosophies of care that will potentially lead to more effective, integrated treatment approaches to physical rehabilitation. As a community-based project for professional program students, the invaluable cultural experience enabled students to glean greater insight of and appreciation for diversity and culture that will influence their personal and professional endeavors. This project can inform future community-based, service learning, and cultural experiences for professional program students and faculty.

Gary Karp will speak to occupational and physical therapy students on Friday, April 4, 2008 from 10 a.m. to noon in the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center, Ruth Lilly Performance Hall at the University of Indianapolis. This event is free and open to the public.

From http://www.garykarpspeaks.com/speaking.html
Gary Karp is an internationally recognized public speaker, corporate trainer, facilitator, author, and editor.

He has been living — fully — with a T12 spinal cord injury since 1973 when he was injured in a fall from a tree at the age of eighteen.

For his unique and extensive contributions to disability awareness, in 2007 Gary was inducted into the Spinal Cord Injury Hall of Fame as a disability educator.

Since his injury, Gary has earned a graduate degree in architecture, worked for eleven years in the presentation graphics industry as a designer and production manager, then began providing ergonomics training and consultation services to companies in the San Francisco Bay Area where he lives with his wife Paula and their yellow Labrador Retriever, Nava Leah.

A very highly-regarded speaker, Gary is sponsored in part by the Christopher & Dana Reeve Paralysis Resource Center, which funds his speaking in rehabilitation settings and to university students of physical and occupational therapy.

As a corporate trainer on disability and employment Gary makes the business case for working with employees with disabilities. He creates a safe and interactive environment to discuss what some find an uncomfortable topic — and in the process helps bring workplace culture up to speed on the dramatic emergence of people with disabilities — as candidates, and an existing employee's capacity to stay on the job or return more efficiently.

It's a familiar site around Indiana -- fields, barns, rolls of hay. But how often do we stop and look at the actual beauty of these scenes? Breaking Ground by Susan Fleck, a photography exhibition opening soon at UIndy, explores the often overlooked rural scenery that surrounds us. The exhibition runs March 24-May 9 in the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center Gallery. It features 21 photographs of rural scenes from Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Montana, Washington and even Norway!

The photographs were taken during Fleck's Creative Renewal Arts Fellowship from the Arts Council of Indianapolis. She chose to focus on rural landscapes because, though she grew up in Indiana, she had never taken photos depicting the familiar scenery. "There is beautiful farmland all around us, but most people never stop to look at it," she explains. "This exhibition shows farms as art."

Admission is free to the exhibition, which is open Monday-Friday, 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Fleck will be present at a reception Friday, March 28 from 6-8 p.m. Find more information on UIndy's Arts site, then stop by and check it out!

The campus visit is an invaluable piece of the college selection process. A firsthand account of any college or university, from meeting with students to checking out residence hall rooms , the campus visit often provides students and parents with more information and more insight into the campus experience.

While websites and brochures are helpful, neither carries the impact of actually experiencing a university and meeting its faculty, staff and students. At the University of Indianapolis, students and parents are encouraged to schedule individualized visits, which can include a campus tour, lunch with a student ambassador, sitting-in on a class or meeting with a professor and/or a coach.

 
To schedule a visit, contact the University Of Indianapolis Office Of Admissions at 1-866-421-7173 or schedule online at admissions.uindy.edu/visit. Check online for special visit days and open houses as well, including High School Day, School of Nursing Day, School of Business Day, Future Teacher Day, and Campus Camp-In!
