    This article agreed with most other articles similar to it that I have read in relation of CPM to TKR. No significant improvements were noted for patients using CPM in an IRF for a total knee replacement.

    Drivers with ADHD, Autism or both diagnosis are at a higher risk for accidents due to right-eye visual acuity, selective attention, visual-motor integration, cognition, and motor performance. This study found that they made more errors on the driving simulator pertaining to visual scanning, speed regulation, lane maintenance, adjustment to stimuli, and total number of driving errors. This article mentions that because of this, kids with ADHD/Autism or both need a driving specialist prior to getting behind the wheel.

    This site is a McMaster University workbook that outlines each type of reasoning,. It breaks down what you should do and ask your self in the clinical reasoning process. It may not be totally practically with practice as a clinical but i think as students in our fieldwork sites could make this part of their "homework" each night to develop these clinical reasoning skils.

    This document was created as a workbook in order to introduce students to the various concepts/types of clinical reasoning and to facilitate students to make comprehensive clinical decisions regarding patient care. This workbook defines each type of clinical reasoning occupational therapy practitioners may utilize in order to deliver patient-centered care including narrative reasoning, procedural reasoning, interactive reasoning, pragmatic reasoning, and conditional reasoning. Under each type of clinical reasoning various strategies are listed in order to help an occupational therapy practitioner utilize the particular type of clinical reasoning to better understand and relate to the patient and deliver more effective treatment.

    It is important to understand and apply throughout evaluation and intervention, clinical reasoning concepts such as narrative, procedural, interactive, pragmatic, and conditional. This article outlines and discusses the clinical reasoning concepts in further detail.

Impairments in Sensory Modulation in Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder - 0 views

    The Short Sensory Profile was used to measure a caregiver report of sensory reactivity in a group of children with an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Fifty-six of 78 (72%) families invited to participate returned the questionnaires and the data were complete for 44 children. These 44 children represented a stratified sample out of a total of 443 children, identified through nine different data sets maintained for children affected by ASD from a total geographical region in South East Scotland. Clinical information was collected retrospectively from contemporary pediatric community child health medical notes and also cross-sectionally from caregivers. Sensory reactivity was outside normal limits in over 70% of the children, with the highest percentage of sensitivities occurring in the auditory filtering and the underresponsiveness and seeking sensation domains. Logistic regression analysis showed no significant relationship between sensory reactivity and the child's age at presentation with autism or parental report of regression. The severity of autism was measured by the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale and related to the Short Sensory Profile (r = 0.39, p = 0.001). These findings suggest that all children affected by ASD, regardless of clinical features or age, may potentially be affected by sensory reactivities and may benefit from appropriate occupational therapy assessment and management. ASDs are relatively common among neurodevelopmental conditions and confer lifelong disabilities. As the majority of affected children will have sensory modulation difficulties, this has significant implications for pediatric occupational therapy services.

    This article aims to use a qualitative descriptive study to describe occupational therapists experiences and improvements in work after adopting the Occupational Therapy Intervention Process Model (OTIPM). The OTIPM is a client-centered, top down, occupation-focused OT model of practice. The assumptions of the model are that every person is unique, has the will to engage in meaningful occupations, occupations are the primary therapeutic means and engagement in occupations in the central focus in OT. The study was conducted in an acute care hospital in Sweden starting in 2001. They were selected because the therapists wanted to improve OT services and promote evidence-practice in their hospital. The participants participated in a total of six semi-structured focus interviews in which the occupational therapists were asked to describe their experiences of the long-term improvements in work, attitudes toward improvements work and thoughts on how this improved work impacts the goal to change to a more sustainable and evidence-based OT practice in their setting. The first three interviews were in 2006 and the last three were in 2011. The interviews were analyzed and broken down into common themes among therapists. The first theme is that the therapists found their thoughts and actions were transformed on an individual and group level after adopting the OTIPM. The second theme discovered how the therapists dealt with conflicting feelings and attitudes toward change. The final theme describes a shared professional culture. In conclusion, the investigators discovered from the 10-year study and testimonies of Swedish therapists that the use of OTIPM can lead to the integration of evidence-based knowledge that has long-lasting achievements in practice.

    Lateral epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, is one of the most commonly treated diagnoses we treat in the hand clinic I am currently placed for my level II rotation. This article aims to look at treating these patients with evidence-based practice and the occupational adaptation model. The occupational adaptation model is a process of adaptively responding to occupational challenges, through internal adaptations and preparations for adaptations to future occupational challenges. As occupational therapists, this model allows us to find ways for patients to continue mastering their occupations in their own unique way. In hand therapy evaluations, for lateral epicondylitis, a major focus is discovering many biomechanical measurements such as ROM, pain, sensation, strength and components of functioning. This article tells us that we should also be incorporating the OA model and discovering the client's occupations and challenges associated with those. This allows us to incorporate some occupation-based activities into the patients' treatment plans. Hand therapists should be finding ways to incorporate the psychosocial aspect of occupational therapy with the biomechanical aspects. The author explains that studies have shown that patients receiving combination of therapeutic exercise with ADL activities demonstrated statistically significant improvements in all measured parameters (pinch strength, total active range of motion, opposition, etc,) compared to groups only receiving therapeutic exercises. There is a challenge in hand therapy to bridge the gap between mechanical expectations with the holistic, client centered care of occupational therapy. In conclusion, therapist must work to educate other practitioners and work toward a blend of occupation-based and biomechanical-based treatments when working with lateral epicondylitis patients and other hand therapy patients.

    In this article researches assessed the effectiveness of sensory-enhanced Hatha Yoga on symptoms of combat stress for deployed military personnel. In this study the researchers compared the anxiety and sensory processing abilities of the deployed military personnel with stateside civilians using the State-Trial Anxiety Inventory scales and the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile Quadrants. There was a total of 70 participants, 35 received 3 wks of treatment and 35 did not. The sensory-enhanced hatha yoga was shown to be effective in reducing state and trait anxiety. Researchers also found positive correlations with all test measures excepts sensory seeking, which was negatively correlated with all measures except low registration. These results support the use of sensory enhanced hatha yoga as a proactive approach for stress management for deployed military personnel.
