Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to describe participant experiences of how a rehabilitation centre can facilitate social inclusion for people with physical disabilities in Mexico. This research was a qualitative interview study with a semi-structured interview approach. Ten participants were recruited using purposive sampling. The participants were individuals with physical disabilities, including both mobility and visual impairments, who had a connection with the rehabilitation centre. Content analysis was used while examining the collected data. The result consisted of one main category ‘indiv

Background and rationale. Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common disabling disorders of childhood and constitutes a substantial portion of pediatric rehabilitation. This condition demands comprehensive rehabilitation using age-appropriate tasks and activities and encompassing aspects of body function and structure, activity and participation, and personal and environmental factors. Yet little is known regarding actual occupational therapy (OT) and physical therapy (PT) practices.<br>Objective.

Adherence is considered a prerequisite for the success of exercise programs for musculoskeletal disorders. The negative effects of non-adherence to exercise recommendations impact the cost of care, and also treatment effectiveness, treatment duration, the therapeutic relationship, waiting times, the efficiency of personnel and use of equipment. Adherence to therapeutic exercise intervention is a multifaceted problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) established the multidimensional adherence model (MAM).

Abstract:
Stroke recovery is complex and poorly understood. As a legacy of pervasive pessimism in the face of limited treatment, it is conceptualised and researched from biomedical and psychosocial perspectives that address impairment, problems of performance, quality of life, burden and disruption. Little stroke research is conducted once professional input has ceased, and yet considerable change occurs after this period with evidence that post-stroke wellbeing is independent of impairment and function -- many people do well in the face of poor prognoses, while others remain miserable despite 'good rec

Hospital stays have grown increasingly shorter with a corresponding increase in the use of homecare services. However, we have a limited understanding of how homecare services are allocated in Ontario, particularly homecare rehabilitation services. The primary objective of this research is to explore the current decision-making processes for the allocation of occupational and physical therapy services in homecare for the long stay clients. To address this objective a exploratory study using key informant interviews was conducted. The results indicate that the process of decision making for the

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>Background: Rehabilitation Robotics (RR) has become a more widely used and better understood treatment intervention and research tool in the last 15 years. Traditional research involves pre and post-test outcomes, making it difficult to analyze changes in behavior during the treatment process. Harnessing kinematics captured throughout each treatment allows motor learning to be quantified and questions of application and dosing to be answered.

Abstract:
Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the United States. The majority of stroke survivors have persistent arm dysfunction, which impedes their daily task performance. Mirror therapy (MT) as an adjunct to occupational therapy (OT) has been shown to be effective in upper extremity (UE) recovery post-stroke. Two protocols, unimanual mirror therapy (UMT) and bimanual mirror therapy (BMT), have been used in OT practice; however, research specifically comparing these two intervention protocols is absent. The purpose of this study was to compare: (a) home-based UMT and BMT protocols, and (b) b

Serious gaps between best and actual stroke rehabilitation practices continue to exist, even with the plethora of evidence and guidelines for stroke best practice management. To address this knowledge gap with an effective knowledge translation (KT) intervention, six steps of the Knowledge to Action (KTA) Model were applied to these specific research objectives: 1) to conduct a systematic review to examine evidence on the effectiveness of single/multi-component KT interventions for improving knowledge, attitudes, and rehabilitation practice behaviors of occupational therapists (OTs) and physic

Abstract:
The hypothesis underlying this research is that hand activity produces changes in the tissues of the hand which are reflected in the various functions of those tissues. Understanding the effect of hand activity upon hand function would allow occupational therapists to assess the efficacy of therapeutic interventions upon a clients ability to perform hand activity without damage to the tissues of the hand. Such information could assist in the design of safe and sustainable work tasks. The first step towards understanding how activity affects the hand is to measure its effects. The aim of this r

Abstract:
Most physical rehabilitation services are not person-centered. Occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) are vested in person-centered approaches, thereby they are optimally positioned to take leading roles in these quality improvement (QI) activities. Yet, there is a lack of OTPs-led QI activities on person-centered rehabilitation, and seminally, a lack of a QI guide informing these activities. To shape the evidence- and theory-based QI guide, we engaged a small international sample (n= 8) of potential end-users, i.e., OTPs in practice or management roles. The process involved three rounds
