Outcome+Measures +COPM+GAS

    This article looks at the comparison of using the COPM and GAS as outcome measures and the study compared the utility of the COPM and GAS as parent gener- ated outcome measures for a paediatric programme for children with cerebral palsy. The COPM and GAS allowed families to generate individualized outcome measures that were directly relevant to the programme purpose, their concerns and priorities for their child. They were also found to be sensitive enough to measure change in the proven treatment group - that is, the COPM and GAS are sensitive enough to change where real change is present. The COPM was found to be more specific in what it measured, however as the GAS had no pre-determined activities, it was able to reach a wider range of activities, and therefore outcomes.

    Measure outcomes to demonstrate the effectiveness of occupational therapy during OT Week. It says: If you are considering an influencing activity for OT Week, such as meeting with your MP, commissioner or stakeholders, are you able to: ■demonstrate that your occupational therapy input is effective? ■show how your intervention makes a difference to people's lives? ■illustrate how you are meeting the goals of those referred to you? ■aggregate data across your service to demonstrate collective effectiveness? ■relate your outcomes to any relevant national outcome frameworks? (e.g. Transparency in Outcomes: A Framework for the NHS Principles, Department Health. NHS Scotland Performance Targets 2011/12, NHS Wales Annual Quality Framework) ■present your outcomes in an easy to understand format? The resources on this page will help you answer 'yes' to the above questions.

    The purpose of this paper is to review six individualized outcome measures that have been identified in the rehabilitation and psychology literature. The measures include: the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills, McMaster (MAC) Toronto Arthritis, Goal Attainment Scaling, Target Complaints and the Patient Specific Functional Scale. The reliability, validity, responsiveness and clinical utility of each outcome measure was examined and critiqued. Each tool, to a varying degree, met the description of a standardized, client-centred outcome measure. Members of NZAOT can access this journal.

    This article looks at the comparison between the GAS and the Paediatric Evaluation of Disability Index (PEDI) and the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM). In this study Occupational Therapists, Speech and LAnguage Therapists and Physical Therapists were asked to use the GAS as well as continuing to use established outcome measures (PEDI and GMFM). Over a 6 month period these were reviewed twice and it was found that the three assessments were complimentary in their ability to measure individual change. The GAS helped measure goals that were outside the range of the (standardised) PEDI and GMFM.

    This article discusses and compares the use of COPM, GAS, PEGS and PACS as OM for paed practice. It has a very helpful graph which shows the use of each over the past 20 years. It discusses the positives of using each, and how they vary in their 'individual' and 'client centred' goal setting, particularly discussing WHO is setting the goals. The article makes a relevant point about the difference between individualised OM and client centred OM.

    This compendium is primarily designed for clinicians engaged in service delivery and development, who wish to gauge clinical effectiveness and recovery, in a balanced, culturally appropriate, ethical and respectful manner. It is designed for clinicians who perhaps are not expert in the area of outcome measurement, and who wish to be guided about the scope of instruments, and find out which instruments might be appropriate for particular forms of outcome measurement. The compendium is also aimed at service users who might want to learn about different measures, and their properties, advantages and disadvantages

    This is an overview of a lot of information. For those looking at COPM & GAS - there are helpful comments. This is a good overview and I suggest that you take time to look through the points raised.

    This article looks at the construct and criterion validity of the COPM when being used with parents of children with disabilities, and two different OTs/ It has some interesting points about the 'self-perception' of goal importance and how that can change over time - even within a week. The article looks more at the goal setting side, however the goals set will impact the outcomes.

    This article is helpful for relating ICF to OT and the use of ICF when looking at outcomes. "The application of ICF has proved to be helpful to occupational therapists in identifying age-appropriate roles and reflects the person's independence and well-being (44,96). ICF facilitates increased precision in recording and monitoring different health condi- tions (72,97-99), e.g. the field of rehabilitation coun- selling, vocational assessment, and job placement (100,101). It is similar to many OT models in devel- oping tasks and activities for clients and recognizing the interaction between person and environment (80,92,102)."

    As part of a national programme to provide mechanisms for quality improvement in the mental health sector, New Zealand has established the MH-Smart Programme. The programme aims to introduce the routine use of standardised assessments that, with repeated use, can reflect consumer changes, outcomes or results. This paper describes the process and rationale for assessing the suitability of measures of functioning.

    Healthcare systems are being reviewed in response to the changing demographics of the New Zealand population. Service evaluation is used to judge the merit of particular approaches and interventions and is essential for clinical accountability and quality healthcare programmes. Goal Attainment Scaling is an individualised evaluation methodology developed in the 1960s that has gained popularity in a variety of occupational therapy fields. This article describes Goal Attainment Scaling, presents the benefits, limitations and discusses its use as an outcome measure in a research study evaluating the impact of an outreach nurse case management service for older people. The clinical utility of Goal Attainment Scaling for occupational therapists is explored.
