Psychological predictors of performance-based physical functioning among pediatric pain program participants
CONCLUSION: Participation in an IOP led to significant improvement in physical endurance and high-level motor ability. Depressive symptoms and pain catastrophizing were associated with physical functioning at baseline but not post-program completion. Integration of pain psychology and physical therapy in an IOP can help address the interrelated psychological and physical factors impacting physical functioning to improve outcomes for children with chronic pain.PMID:38427508 | DOI:10.3233/PRM-220132 (Source: Journal of Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine)

Effectiveness of simple and basic home-based exercise programs including pediatric massage executed by caregivers at their homes in the management of children with spastic cerebral palsy: A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSION: PM along with HEPs can be used effectively to reduce spasticity and to improve gross motor ability if performed for a period of at least six and 12 weeks respectively. In conjunction with HEPs, PM has better outcomes in the management of tone and movement disorders of spastic CP than HEPs alone.PMID:38427509 | DOI:10.3233/PRM-220135 (Source: Journal of Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine)

Qualitative feedback from caregivers in a multidisciplinary pediatric neuromuscular clinic
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that caregivers believed the MDC model was both efficient and convenient for pediatric patients with neuromuscular disorders. This model has the potential to streamline medical care and can be applied more broadly to improve care coordination for children with medical complexity.PMID:38427510 | DOI:10.3233/PRM-230011 (Source: Journal of Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine)

Clinical outcomes measurement in pediatric lower limb prosthetics: A scoping review
CONCLUSIONS: Few studies report psychometric data for assessing the overall HRQoL, function, and/or satisfaction for children who use LLP. Further research is needed to validate or create new outcome measures that assess the HRQoL, satisfaction, and/or function of children who use LLP.PMID:38427511 | DOI:10.3233/PRM-230014 (Source: Journal of Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine)
