Does follow-up really matter? A convergent mixed methods study exploring follow-up across levels of care in rehabilitation of patients with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases
CONCLUSIONS: The results provide evidence that access to follow-up care is crucial to patients with RMDs. However, it also highlights several factors that may influence its impact. These results can be used to optimise design and implementation of future follow-up interventions.PMID:38334113 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2310170 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Factors related to high-risk movement behaviour in people with stroke who are highly sedentary and inactive
CONCLUSION: Our findings show that people with stroke are unaware of their own movement behaviour or of the consequences of these behaviours on health. Movement behaviour is, for the most part, based on daily routine and personal habits. This indicates the need for a behaviour change intervention. Such interventions will need to include providing information about healthy movement behaviour, feedback on individual's movement behaviour and individualized support, taking into account the social and environmental context and personal capabilities.PMID:38327106 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2310751 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Validation of an eight-item resilience scale for inpatients with spinal cord injuries in a rehabilitation hospital: exploratory factor analyses and item response theory
CONCLUSIONS: The factor validity of the CD-RISC-8 was improved. Significantly, the CD-RISC-8 has excellent potential for clinical usage due to its discriminant ability between low and intermediate resilience.PMID:38327137 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2308643 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Effectiveness of telerehabilitation-based structured exercise program in individuals with unilateral transtibial amputation: a randomized controlled study
CONCLUSIONS: Telerehabilitation combined with home exercise can offer greater benefits in improving gait, muscle strength, balance confidence, activity restriction, prosthesis satisfaction, and quality of life compared to home exercise alone for individuals with transtibial amputation.Implications for rehabilitationExercise helps individuals with lower limb amputation overcome their physical limitations and enables them to use their prostheses effectively.Physiotherapy and rehabilitation after amputation are not at the desired level, and individuals with lower limb amputation encounter various difficulties in accessing phy...

An exploration of person-centredness among emergency department physiotherapists: a mixed methods study
CONCLUSION: ED physiotherapists were mindful of an apparent, yet unspoken struggle between the competing philosophies of biomedicine and person-centredness. The results here support entering a patient's world as a person-centred approach to help navigate the line between what an ED attender wants and the clinical need of their visit.PMID:38329070 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2310179 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

The effectiveness of prehabilitation interventions on biopsychosocial and service outcomes pre and post upper gastrointestinal surgery: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Current evidence supports prehabilitation as safe to preserve or improve preoperative function. Heterogeneity in outcomes and variable study quality means definitive conclusions regarding interventions are not yet possible, limiting implementation. Agreement of clinical outcomes and cost effectiveness evaluation is required.PMID:38323587 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2310765 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)
