    In this letter to the editor in AJOT, an OT working in a mental health setting describes the difficulty of proving the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of OT in mental health. When asked to provide such evidence at her work place, even with the help of some of the prominent mental health OTs she was unable to find enough research. She makes a call for those interested in the mental health profession to begin to do more research in the area in order to protect OTs role in the setting.

    The school that I am currently placed at is in the process of becoming the first PLAY Project certified and trained school. The PLAY Project Home Consultation (PPHC) program trains parents of children with autistic spectrum disorders using the DIR/Floortime model of Stanley Greenspan MD. Sixty-eight children completed the 8-12 month program. Pre/post ratings of videotapes by blind raters using the Functional Emotional Assessment Scale (FEAS) showed significant increases in child subscale scores. Translated clinically, 45.5 percent of children made good to very good functional developmental progress. There were no significant differences between parents in the FEAS subscale scores at either pre-or post-intervention and all parents scored at levels suggesting they would be effective in working with their children. Overall satisfaction with PPHC was 90 percent. Average cost of intervention was $2500/ year. Despite important limitations, this pilot study of The PLAY Project Home Consulting model suggests that the model has potential to be a cost-effective intervention for young children with autism.

    This article discusses the use and effectiveness of constraint induced movement therapy for patients who have suffered a stroke. Constraint induced movement therapy is a widely researched treatment technique with mixed results. This study found that the technique can be beneficial at improving upper extremity function but may not be a time or cost effective method.

    In this article, Arbesman, Lieberman, and Metzler discuss the importance of best practice through evidence in clinical decision making. The authors define the framework of EBP as requiring integration of information from clinical experience and reasoning, preferences of clients and their families, and findings of best available research. Also discussed in this article are AOTA Practice Guidelines, Critically Appraised Topics, interventions for health through living independently, and interventions for chronic care management.

    This is an AJOT article, published in 2014, that discusses how OT practitioners should use evidence/research in order to promote the value of the profession of occupational therapy. The article discusses evidence-based practice and how it is emerging to become the norm of all major healthcare professions, including OT.

    This article highlights the fact that it is the responsibility of occupational therapy practitioners to provide treatment that has sound evidence to support its use within the clinical setting. With continuous health care reforms, there is a great push for occupational therapist to utilize evidence-based practice when working with patients. In fact, the utilization of evidence in practice produces definable outcomes measures that will soon affect payment for services. By providing evidence-based services, occupational therapists are providing interventions that are both effective and cost-effective and reimbursable.
