Understanding the acute care hospital experience after SCI is important as it may have an impact on persons with spinal cord injuries’ (PWSCI) subsequent journey to the rehabilitation center and community. This experience has not been studied in Nepal, especially from the perspective of PWSCI. To understand how PWSCI (1) are involved in decision-making for their care; (2) are educated about secondary complications and, (3) perceive overall positive and negative experiences regarding their care during their acute care hospital stay in Nepal. Qualitative study based on Van Manen’s phenomenology using purposive sampling at the Spinal Injury Rehabilitation Center, the only dedicated SCI center in Nepal. We interviewed participants (n=24) who were referred from nine different acute hospitals using a semi-structured interview guide co-developed with SCI experts and PWSCI. Using thematic analysis, we extracted the findings with Manen’s approach. We identified three preliminary themes: (1) Families, but not PWSCI, are often included in the decision-making process; (2) For education on secondary complications, only pressure injury prevention was recalled; (3) Timeliness of spinal surgery was a concern. There are opportunities to improve the acute care experience for PWSCI in Nepal. PWSCI desired to be more engaged in the decision-making process and more involved in their own care. Concerns regarding the timeliness of surgery correlated with the findings of previous Nepali studies.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139346588","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}

The cost of implementing ABT is an important consideration for rehabilitation facilities interested in providing this intervention. Thus, a scoping review was conducted to evaluate the economic evidence for ABT for the rehabilitation of upper or lower limb impairment. A search of various scientific literature databases (including EMBASE, MEDLINE and CINAHL) was conducted using search terms developed in collaboration with a Medical Librarian. Studies were included if they were economic analyses of an ABT conducted for individuals with upper or lower limb mobility impairment. Titles and abstracts were initially screened by two of the authors followed by a full-text review of remaining articles. Articles included in the review were evaluated for methodological quality and presented descriptively because of the heterogeneity in study design, populations and outcomes. Of the 6,031 unique citations originally identified, 14 articles were included after full-text screening. Two-third of the studies were for stroke and half of the studies originated from the US. Robot-assisted therapies represented half of the studies and about a quarter were locomotor training programs. In the stroke and spinal cord injured population, robot-assisted therapies and body supported treadmill therapy appear to be cost-effective respectively. There is some evidence to support the cost-effectiveness of robot-assisted therapies and body supported treadmill therapy. However, the evidence is very limited and additional research is needed.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139346798","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}

To report: 1) the frequency of PA prescription recall; and, 2) the frequency of lipid profile assessment and interpretation recall among inpatients with SCI/D during rehabilitation. Adults with SCI/D completed the SCI-HIGH CMD intermediary outcome indicators. A Kinesiologist collected data via interview and chart abstraction among UHN inpatients. Survey responses were scored using Reachlite’s optical character recognition software. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the participant’s age, sex, impairment characteristics, and report recall rates and the frequency of lipid screening/interpretation. Based on the participant’s needs, either educational materials to increase future adherence to PA guidelines and/or a Mediterranean diet were provided. Adult inpatients (n=124), mean age 59 years, 64% paraplegic, and 36% female participated. In total, 14% of participants (16/117) reported being taught the benefits of PA for their heart health; of whom 69% (11/16) recalled exercise instruction. Similarly, 15% of inpatients (17/114) recalled lipid screening during rehabilitation, although chart abstraction revealed that 30% (37/124) had completed lipid screening. Clinical interpretation of their lipid values was recalled by 30% of inpatients. There is a significant opportunity to advance PA instruction and lipid profile education and management among inpatients with SCI/D to reduce CMD risk.

The objectives of this study were to investigate: (1) TSS above and below a spinal cord injury (SCI) lesion results in different recruitment pattern of upper limb (UL) motor pools compared to neurologically intact subjects (NIS), and (2) the relationship between recruitment pattern of UL motor pools and neurological and functional status in individuals with SCI. Methods: Eleven NIS and six participants with cervical SCI were recruited in this study. We compared spinally evoked motor potentials in UL muscles during TSS delivered to the cervical spinal cord between the spinous process of C3-C4 and C7-T1 vertebrae. As expected, TSS delivered over the cervical spinal cord in NIS can preferentially activate proximal and distal muscles along the rostrocaudal axis, as well as ipsilateral UL muscles along the mediolateral axis. However, in participants with SCI, the responses registered in UL muscles innervated by motor pools above and below the lesion demonstrated different recruitment compared to NIS, and were dependent on the level, extent, and side of SCI. The spatial map obtained from assessing evoked potentials above and below the lesion contributes to the comprehensive understanding of the viability and function of specific UL motor pools, and can be utilized to monitor changes in recruitment patterns of the UL motor pools during neurorehabilitation interventions after SCI.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139347084","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}

Thus, the aim of this study is to review the clinical and economic evidence for AT in the SCI population. Scientific literature databases including EMBASE, MEDLINE and CINAHL will be searched using terms identified in collaboration with a Medical Librarian. In the first stage, the titles and abstracts of clinical studies and economic analyses of AT focused in SCI will be screened by two reviewers. This will be followed by a second stage full-text screening for inclusion in the review by the same reviewers. The types of ATs evaluated will be identified along with the outcomes measured. Where applicable, study results will be presented using summary statistics. Work is currently underway to identify the citations. Two reviewers will then screen the titles and abstracts. It is anticipated that a large majority of the citations will be screened out with a small number of studies remaining. Most studies are also expected to be for the clinical evaluation of AT with variable outcomes. The results of this scoping review will provide valuable insight on the types of AT where clinical and economic evidence is available and identify where the current research gaps are.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139343638","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}

Three rounds of the group were offered with 12 participants completing the group in its entirety. Pre- and post-measures included the Self-Efficacy to Manage Scale (Lorig, et al, 2001), the Life Satisfaction Questionnaire-11 (Fugl-Meyer, et al., 1991), and the Readiness Ruler adapted to each wellness topic (Moyers, et al., 2009). Analyses before and after group showed a slight increase (Cohen’s d = 0.3) in their subjective well-being on the life satisfaction scale and a moderately higher sense of self-efficacy (Cohen’s d = 0.6) in managing symptoms. Although perceived importance for change was similar, participants reported higher confidence in their ability to change (Cohen’s d = 0.4) and greater readiness to make changes (Cohen’s d = 0.4) after the group. The program resulted in several successes including slight increase in life satisfaction and moderately higher sense of self-efficacy in managing symptoms. Confidence in ability and readiness to make change also increased. The project had a small sample size, but the outcomes support the value of embedding a peer-support element into traditional healthcare delivery.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139344076","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}

Caregiving responsibilities lead to caregiver burden. Receiving social support may mitigate the negative impacts of caregiving. Caregivers can obtain support from people they meet in-person, such as family members and people with whom they interact through social platforms. Our objective was to investigate the moderating effect of in-person and online social supports on the association between relationship quality, caregiver competence, caregiver distress and caregiver burden. 115 caregivers who resided in Canada or the United States, understood and spoke English, and self-identified as primary family caregivers of an individual with SCI were sampled. Participants completed measures assessing relationship quality, competence, distress, burden, and in-person and online social support. Three separate moderation analyses for each outcome variable (i.e. relationship quality, competence, and distress), were conducted. In analyses, burden was the predictor, and online and in-person support were moderators. Moderation analyses showed that online support moderates the link between caregiver burden and distress. Slope analyses revealed that the positive relationship between burden and distress was weaker when caregivers reported lower levels of online support (p=0.005); this relationship was more robust when caregivers reported higher levels of online support (p <.001). Other moderation analyses were not statistically significant. Online support increases distress in family caregivers. It is likely that comparing their life with other caregivers or being exposed to other caregivers’ grief negatively affects caregivers. More research is needed to understand how online support impacts caregivers negatively.","PeriodicalId":46769,"journal":{"name":"Topics in Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139344097","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}
