[Evaluating the efficacy of a multidisciplinary approach of severe functional deficits].

Abstract

Therapeutic indications aimed at improving function in handicapped persons are difficult to establish as the expected result of a given technique may vary. We have developed a multidisiplinary approach for handicapped persons. Our assessment of this activity which has concerned 62 patients from October 1995 to October 1996 is promising and encourages us to continue this type of attitude. Forty-six of the 58 persons evaluated stated they were well satisfied or very well satisfied with the management of their case and outcome was worse in none of the patients.
