    This study was performed to identify the ability for individuals to adjust following spinal cord injury and acute rehabilitation treatment using the PAIS, the psychological adjustment to illness scale. Although this article is dated 1991- I feel that it has extreme relevance to the population. Specifically results of this study were extremely variable, some individuals were able to adjust without difficulty while others reported extreme difficulty with the major life change. I feel that this can be applicable to any traumatic injury--even outside of spinal cord in that experiences and adaption can be very individualized and should be approached as such. (Exactly why OT's approach to individuality and looking at the person as a whole is so crucial following a traumatic injury)

    This article provides a summary by AOTA's Evidence-Based Practice Project of current evidence available in multiple areas which OT is involved with adults with TBI. By providing a summary of the current evidence available, OTs looking to be involved in research can use this information to create new research questions and see in which areas more evidence is needed to support OT. The areas summarized include arousal and alertness of people in a coma, motor function, cognitive impairment, visual-perceptual impairment, psychosocial/behavioral/emotional impairments, areas of occupation, and social participation.

    This article talks about a stress-loading, also known as the "Scrub & Carry Program," beneficial for patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome/Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. This program entails stressing the body part, typically a hand in hopes of the nervous system regulating the pain signals it is sending to the brain. Patients using this program will "scrub" using a brush or the Dystrophile and scrubbing foreward/backward & side-to-side, initially starting for 3 minutes at a time and gradually increasing. Then patients are to carry a weighted object, to their tolerance, in the affected hand for as much of the day as possible. We used this with a patient who had a traumatic work place amputation to his ring finger, and deep laceration (down to the bone) to his middle finger and was starting to show signs of RSD. Though he has poor compliance with this program at home, we did see some benefit from it in the clinic.

    This was qualitative research done by an MOT student at the University of Puget Sound. The author concluded that negative psychosocial reactions can be avoided when the therapist is client-centered and uses meaningful activities to assist the patient adjust and participate in therapy.
