Rehabilitation experiences following major lower limb amputation due to complications of vascular disease: a UK qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Findings highlight the importance of fellow patients in supporting rehabilitation following lower limb amputation. Enabling contact with other patients should thus be a key consideration when planning rehabilitation. There is a clear unmet need for realistic information relating to post-amputation recovery, tailored to the needs of individual patients.PMID:38622944 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2329747 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

The capability approach in rehabilitation: developing capability care
CONCLUSIONS: We have shown that it is possible to develop a healthcare intervention based on the capability approach. We hope that rehabilitation professionals will be encouraged to use capability care and that other medical professionals will be inspired to develop capability care in their respective fields.REGISTRATION: Registered at trialregister.nl NL8946.PMID:38625146 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024.2342494 (Source: Disability and Rehabilitation)

Patients' perceptions of participating in self-directed activities outside supervised occupational and physiotherapy within inpatient and home-based rehabilitation settings: a qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Patients and their carers reported positive experiences of participating in self-directed therapy programs within rehabilitation settings, with programs perceived as beneficial in optimising recovery. Patients reported a range of driving and limiting factors in relation to completing self-directed activities. Understanding these factors, relating to the patient, their environment and other people, is critical for clinicians so that they can modify their delivery accordingly, ensuring uptake and sustained implementation of self-directed activities in rehabilitation care.PMID:38625404 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2024...
