Abstract:

Research shows that one of the major contributors for an extended stay in a long-term care facility is lack of knowledge regarding goals for rehabilitation after being discharged from an acute care facility. It is important to determine patients’ levels of engagement because individuals who are actively involved in discharge planning and rehabilitation goals are able to manage their ongoing care more effectively, which results in increased quality of life. The data was collected using a survey method and the instrument used was the Patient Activation Measure or PAM which is a highly accurate a

Patient participation is a concept used to describe the patients’ involvement in their healthcare. The aim of this licentiate thesis was to explore primary healthcare patients’ experiences of patient participation prior to and within multimodal pain rehabilitation. Qualitative interviews were conducted with seventeen patients, 14 women and 3 men, who had completed multimodal pain rehabilitation for persistent pain. Data was analyzed using qualitative content analysis.The findings show that patient participation can be understood as a complex and individualized interaction between the patient a

Abstract:

Compliance to strict home exercise programs is understood to be a mainstay of post-surgical flexor tendon rehabilitation. Therapists recognise the potential of poor compliance (overuse or under-use of prescribed exercise) and spontaneous movements during rehabilitation. Some therapists may suggest that compliance to specific exercise regimens and control of spontaneous or general movements are fundamentally important in optimising the rehabilitation outcomes and minimising the potential of adverse events. Yet there is little objective data to document the actual levels of exercise or spontaneo
