Overground exoskeleton gait training (OEGT) has been shown to be feasible in both settings, yet its use as an intervention across the continuum has not yet been reported. Objectives This study describes OEGT for patients with SCI across the continuum and its effects on clinical outcomes. Methods Medical records of patients with SCI who completed at least one OEGT session during inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation from 2018 to 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic data, Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury-II (WISCI-II) scores, and OEGT session details (frequency, “walk” time, “up” time, and step count) were extracted. Results Eighteen patients [male (83%), White (61%), aged 37.4 ± 15 years, with tetraplegia (50%), American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale A (28%), B (22%), C (39%), D (11%)] completed OEGT sessions (motor complete, 18.2 ± 10.3; motor incomplete, 16.7 ± 7.7) over approximately 18 weeks (motor complete, 15.1 ± 6.4; motor incomplete, 19.0 ± 8.2).

Prognostication may improve treatment strategies, health care resource allocation, and counseling. Multivariable clinical prediction models (CPMs) for prognosis are tools that can estimate an absolute risk or probability that an outcome will occur. Objectives We sought to systematically review the existing literature on CPMs for TSCI and critically examine the predictor selection methods used. Methods We searched MEDLINE, PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and IEEE for English peer-reviewed studies and relevant references that developed multivariable CPMs to prognosticate patient-centered outcomes in adults with TSCI. Using narrative synthesis, we summarized the characteristics of the included studies and their CPMs, focusing on the predictor selection process. Results We screened 663 titles and abstracts; of these, 21 full-text studies (2009-2020) consisting of 33 distinct CPMs were included. The data analysis domain was most commonly at a high risk of bias when assessed for methodological quality. Model presentation formats were inconsistently included with published CPMs; only two studies followed established guidelines for transparent reporting of multivariable prediction models. Authors frequently cited previous literature for their initial selection of predictors, and stepwise selection was the most frequent predictor selection method during modelling. Conclusion Prediction modelling studies for TSCI serve clinicians who counsel patients, researchers aiming to risk-stratify participants for clinical trials, and patients coping with their injury. Poor methodological rigor in data analysis, inconsistent transparent reporting, and a lack of model presentation formats are vital areas for improvement in TSCI CPM research.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135471529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Articles were searched on electronic databases and grey literature. For inclusion, articles were required to include an adult population with a traumatic SCI and an intervention targeting medication management. They had to incorporate a component of self-management. Articles were independently screened and data were extracted and synthesized using descriptive approaches. Three studies were included in this scoping review. Interventions included a mobile app and two education-based interventions to address self-management of SCI, medication management, and pain management. None of the identified interventions addressed medication self-management comprehensively. Learning outcomes (perceived knowledge and confidence), behavioural outcomes (management strategies, data entry), and clinical outcomes (number of medications, pain scores, functional outcomes) were evaluated. Results of the interventions varied, but some positive outcomes were noted, with improvements in perceived knowledge and confidence and a reduction in the use of multiple pain medications.

Individuals from six key interest groups (i.e., researchers; persons living with SCI/D; administrators; physical and occupational therapists; community-based exercise trainers; and funders, advocates, and policy experts) who had knowledge of and/or experience with ABT were recruited to participate in focus group interviews that were held over web conferencing. Participants were asked about the barriers and facilitators to practicing ABT. Interview transcripts were analyzed using conventional content analysis followed by a comparative analysis across groups. Forty-eight individuals participated in interviews lasting 30-80 minutes. Six themes were identified: 1) Challenge of defining ABT and addressing gaps in knowledge/training. 2) Challenge of standardizing ABT. 3) Challenge of determining the optimal timing of ABT. 4) Challenge of defining, characterizing and achieving high dosage and intensity. 5) Challenge of funding ABT. 6) Challenge of measuring participation and performance in ABT. While all groups acknowledged these six challenges, therapists and community trainers viewed knowledge/training gaps and achieving high dosage and intensity as key challenges. Researchers and advocates emphasized funding as a key challenge. Participants highlighted the challenges that limit adoption of ABT into practice within hospital and community settings.

Accordingly, we have designed a 2-part consultation targeted at identified barriers for adherence to an anti-inflammatory diet in this population. This study aimed to determine the effects of the consultation on self-efficacy for adhering to an anti-inflammatory diet, as well as adherence and health outcomes one month post-intervention. Eleven individuals (10 female, age 51.5±12.6 years) with neurological disability (7 multiple sclerosis, 3 spinal cord injury, 1 muscular dystrophy; 20.5±10.6 years post-injury/diagnosis) participated. The intervention group (n=7) received recipes for an anti-inflammatory diet and the 2-part consultation, while controls (n=4) received the recipes only. The consultation consisted of a home-visit that included cooking and accessible kitchen equipment demonstrations, and an accompanied trip to the grocery store. Both task and barrier self-efficacy improved immediately following the consultation and tended to stay above baseline one month post-intervention. The consultation was also associated with increased dietary adherence one month post-intervention and decreased depressive symptoms as measured by the Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Changes in dietary adherence (r=-0.61; p=0.045), and barrier self-efficacy (r=-0.77; p=0.009) were negatively correlated to changes in CES-D scores. A consultation targeted at barriers related to anti-inflammatory eating can improve self-efficacy for adherence as well as actual adherence and depressive symptomology one month later. Further follow-up studies to determine the persistence of these effects are warranted.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139344131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
