Abstract

BACKGROUND The effectiveness of occupation-based hand therapy and the barriers to the use of occupation-based interventions (OBIs) have been established, but the current experience of hand therapists using OBIs and the extent of the use of OBIs in practice is unknown. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify the frequency that occupational therapists who are Certified Hand Therapists (CHTs) utilized OBIs, how occupational therapists who are CHTs described their application of OBIs, and identify the supports and barriers to the application of OBIs. METHODS Twenty-nine participants completed a survey that included 27 questions. The questions consisted of close ended, Likert scale, and multiple-choice questions which were analyzed quantitatively, and open-ended questions which were analyzed qualitatively. RESULTS The majority of the participants, 57.7%, reported implementing OBI at least 75% of the time. Barriers and supports to the use of OBIs reported include a lack of equipment and therapist creativity, and support for the use of OBIs included the therapist's creativity, support from the facility, the availability of equipment, and the intrinsic motivation of therapists. Descriptions of OBI application included activity simulation, adaptive equipment use, and participation in meaningful activity. CONCLUSION Although the use of OBIs in hand therapy may be expanding, occupational therapy practitioners and educators have a role to play in overcoming the remaining barriers to occupation-based hand therapy. Additional research is needed to gain further insight into use of occupation-based intervention by occupational therapists who are CHTs and explore the effect of education on promoting the use of OBIs.
持证手治疗师职业干预的使用。
背景:基于职业的手部治疗的有效性和使用基于职业的干预措施(OBIs)的障碍已经确立,但目前手部治疗师使用OBIs的经验和OBIs在实践中的使用程度尚不清楚。目的本研究旨在确定持证手治疗师(CHTs)职业治疗师使用obi的频率,CHTs职业治疗师如何描述他们对obi的应用,并确定obi应用的支持和障碍。方法29名参与者完成了包括27个问题的问卷调查。问题由封闭性、李克特量表和选择题组成,对其进行定量分析,对开放式问题进行定性分析。结果大多数参与者(57.7%)报告至少有75%的时间实施了OBI。使用obi的障碍和支持包括缺乏设备和治疗师的创造力,使用obi的支持包括治疗师的创造力、设施的支持、设备的可用性和治疗师的内在动机。OBI应用的描述包括活动模拟、适应性设备使用和参与有意义的活动。结论:尽管obi在手部治疗中的应用可能正在扩大,但职业治疗从业者和教育工作者在克服基于职业的手部治疗的剩余障碍方面仍需发挥作用。需要进一步的研究来进一步了解作为CHTs的职业治疗师使用基于职业的干预措施,并探索教育对促进obi使用的影响。

期刊介绍: Cognition, Technology & Work focuses on the practical issues of human interaction with technology within the context of work and, in particular, how human cognition affects, and is affected by, work and working conditions. The aim is to publish research that normally resides on the borderline between people, technology, and organisations. Including how people use information technology, how experience and expertise develop through work, and how incidents and accidents are due to the interaction between individual, technical and organisational factors. The target is thus the study of people at work from a cognitive systems engineering and socio-technical systems perspective. The most relevant working contexts of interest to CTW are those where the impact of modern technologies on people at work is particularly important for the users involved as well as for the effects on the environment and plants. Modern society has come to depend on the safe and efficient functioning of a multitude of technological systems as diverse as industrial production, transportation, communication, supply of energy, information and materials, health and finance.
