    This study compared the efficacy of therapeutic activities that mimic ADLs with that of therapeutic exercises in young adults who had experienced a hand injury. A total of 36 patients were enrolled in the study. Grip strength, pinch strength, finger pulp-distal palmar crease distance, ROM, Jebsen hand function test, and Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores were obtained before treatment, after treatment, and 2 months after treatment. Results indicated that therapeutic activities improved hand function more effectively than therapeutic exercises.

    This study examined adherence to occupational therapy recommendations regarding home modifications and fall prevention in the home environment. A total of 178 homes were visited and at least one modification was recommended in 150 of the homes. The most common recommendations included removal of rugs/mats, a change in footwear, and the use of a non-slip bathmat. A total of 121 homes were revisited one year later to assess for compliance with recommendations. Of the 419 home modifications recommended, only 216 were met with partial or complete adherence. The only significant predictor of adherence was a belief that home modifications can prevent falls and having help at home from relatives.

    This article discusses the lack of tummy time observed by therapists in recent years. Since the 1922 American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation that all infants be placed supine on their backs to sleep to reduce the risk of SIDS, it has been noted that family members and caregivers have also been reducing the amount of tummy time for their infants for fear of SIDS. Many caregivers are not informed of the importance of prone play tummy time in infancy and the potential complications that can arise due to limited tummy time. The results from this study provide implications in the role of therapy to serve as educators for family members/caregivers of infants in the importance of tummy time.

    The purpose of this study was to verify whether mortality in patients with advanced COPD could be reduced by a personalized pulmonary rehab program in the hospital which includes OT to prevent desaturation and sympathetic nerve activation during daily activities. Personalized patient-specific PR programs were designed and included an OT to reduce the oxygen consumption during daily activities. The study concluded that PPR-OT reduced mortality rates in patients at 5 years and 7 years (18.8% and 28.2%) compared to the control group (34% and 44.7%).
