Functional Outcomes of an Interdisciplinary Outpatient Rehabilitation Program for Patients with Malignant Brain Tumors
Malignant brain tumors cause significant impairments in function because of the nature of the disease. Nevertheless, patients with malignant brain tumors can make functional gains equivalent to those with stroke and traumatic brain injury in the inpatient rehabilitation setting. However, the efficacy of outpatient rehabilitation in this population has received little study.

Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Supplements
The American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine (ACRM) offers an opportunity for members to be the guest editor of a Supplement to its journal, the Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (Archives). The goal of the ACRM supplements is to publish high quality scientific manuscripts, which are thematically organized and of interest to ACRM members and to the general readership of the Archives. We are interested in proposals in all fields of rehabilitation, but especially those of interest to the ACRM membership as indicated by the existence of special interest and networking groups for brain injury, spinal cord in...

Evaluation of the Cost of Comprehensive Outpatient Therapies in Patients with Malignant Brain Tumors
Conclusions: The cost of comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation in patients with malignant brain tumors is less expensive than that of patients with traumatic brain injury or stroke, which are neurological diagnoses commonly seen in day rehabilitation. This study shows that cost should not be a barrier to providing outpatient therapies to this patient population.

Functional Gain after Rehabilitation Program in Patients with Brain Tumor and Stroke
To investigate functional gains in brain tumors (BT) survivors after an interdisciplinary rehabilitation program (IRP) and compare with gains made by stroke survivors. Hypothesis: both populations could achieve similar functional gains.

Pediatric rehabilitation: trends in length of stay.
Authors: Kim CT, Greenberg J, Kim H Abstract Length of stay (LOS) is one of the most important pieces of data used to measure clinical rehabilitation outcomes, but there is a paucity of LOS data regarding pediatric acute rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to predict LOS based on admission diagnosis to an acute pediatric inpatient rehabilitation unit. The hypothesis was that LOS will vary according to admission diagnosis. One thousand one hundred forty-five patients were admitted to our acute inpatient rehabilitation unit from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2007. Common admission impairment groups were o...
