In a new service delivery model called Partnering for Change, therapists work collaboratively with educators in classrooms to observe, identify, and support children. This study describes children identified through a traditional referral process and compares them with children identified by occupational therapists through classroom observation and dynamic performance analysis. Methods Participants included 246 children enrolled in a 2-year evaluative study of the Partnering for Change service delivery. Parents completed a demographic questionnaire, the Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire, and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Children’s educators completed the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire and the School Function Assessment. Children completed the Movement Assessment Battery for Children. Results Children identified were significantly younger and more likely to be girls than those referred under the traditional model. Using observation and dynamic performance analysis, occupational therapists identified children who had equally marked difficulties as those who came from the waitlist. In the Partnering for Change model, waitlists for service were eliminated for all children. Conclusions Occupational therapists can identify children who are experiencing significant challenges participating at school without the need for standardized assessment, formal referrals, and waitlists.

Method Fifteen adults with diabetic peripheral neuropathy attended eight weeks of yoga, including positive affirmations, breathing, postures and relaxation. Balance was measured using the Berg balance scale; balance confidence, using the activities-specific balance confidence scale; and occupational performance and satisfaction, using the Canadian occupational performance measure. We used a non-controlled pretest–posttest design. Findings Significant improvements were found for all measures. Improvements remained significant after the Bonferroni correction (α = 0.05/4–0.0125) and effect sizes were large for occupational performance and satisfaction (dCohen = 1.13, 1.07, respectively). Conclusion Yoga may significantly improve balance, balance confidence, occupational performance, and satisfaction for adults with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Further research utilizing a control group, a larger sample size, and randomization is required.

A best space for assisted wheelchair users / Brian Abraham in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017) . - p. 163-172 Titre : A best space for assisted wheelchair users Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Brian Abraham ; Rob I. Davidson Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : p. 163-172 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : chaise roulante Résumé : Introduction Occupational therapists lack manual-handling sensitive tools to assist individual adaptation specifications for assisted wheelchair users, for example, corridor-room turns for extra-long wheelchairs. Method Engineering-based methods identified an experimental set-up. This provided a useful representation of possible manoeuvres in five tasks and proposed a turn difficulty order. Experienced wheelchair assistants (n = 22) selected their maximum comfortable wheelchair weight for each turn. Results Some participants (3/22) were insensitive to turning-space but all other participants (19/22) chose their lowest maximum comfortable weight for the tightest turning-space and 17/19 chose their highest weights for space permitting a slow turn. Mean percentage weight increased by 30% from tight to slow turning-space. Results are statistically significant and clinically important. Experimental set-up was similar to assisting in confined spaces; participants were experienced in working in spacious environments and had recent manual-handling training so results are supported by good manual-handling practice. Assistant-size impact on easiest (highest weight) turning-space is small. Results are applicable to all floor coverings and wheelchair sizes but not to self-propelling wheelchair users. Results are incorporated into a tool, demonstrated by case study. Conclusion Tool-use specifies a best adaptation.

Development of a driving readiness program for adolescents and young adults with cerebral palsy and spina bifida / Marie-Elaine Lafrance in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017) . - p. 173-182 Titre : Development of a driving readiness program for adolescents and young adults with cerebral palsy and spina bifida Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Marie-Elaine Lafrance ; Dana Benoit ; Noémi Dahan-Oliel ; Isabelle Gélinas Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : p. 173-182 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : conduite  paralysie cérébrale  spina bifida  handicap  ergothérapie Résumé : Introduction Occupational therapists are amongst the certified driving rehabilitation specialists providing driving rehabilitation and training. This study aimed at gathering information on driving readiness in adolescents and young adults with physical and/or cognitive impairments related to cerebral palsy and spina bifida to guide the development of a driving readiness program for this clientele. Method A review of the scientific literature was performed. Seventy-four driving rehabilitation specialists across North America were surveyed, of whom eight were subsequently interviewed. Results Learner drivers with cerebral palsy and spina bifida lack the basic skills (such as information processing, visual memory, attention span) for and familiarity with community mobility and self-efficacy, often resulting in a lengthy and difficult learning process for automobile driving. The literature findings were corroborated by a survey and interview of specialized driving rehabilitation therapists. There is a therapist-driven desire to improve pre-requisite skills for driving through a driving readiness program tailored to this population’s specific needs. An outline of such a program was developed based on the person–environment–occupation model. Conclusion A driving readiness program may act as an important clinical tool intended to optimize pre-driving skills in adolescents with cerebral palsy or spina bifida in order to facilitate the driving training process and ensure greater community independence in this population.

Factors affecting sustained engagement in walking for health: A focus group study / Rosi Raine in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 3 (March 2017) . - p. 183-190 Titre : Factors affecting sustained engagement in walking for health: A focus group study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rosi Raine ; Anne Roberts ; Lynne Callaghan ; [et al...] Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : p. 183-190 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : marche  prévention  promotion de la santé  activité physique Résumé : Introduction Health guidance recommends walking as a means to achieve advised levels of physical activity. The aims of the research were to consider the experience of the occupation of walking in relation to health and wellbeing, factors that lead to sustained engagement in walking and factors influencing the sustainable provision of walking groups, to inform practice. Method This phenomenological study considered the experience of eight walking group members and six walk leaders. Data were gathered using three focus groups. Transcriptions were thematically analysed. Findings Participants perceived that the experience of walking groups included improved feelings of wellbeing, and meaning derived from social support and connection with nature. Participants reported changes that improved the health of walkers and their families. Factors considered to influence sustained engagement in walking included appropriate challenge and variety, woodland developments, accommodation of routine, use of local green space and consideration of barriers. Factors considered to influence the sustainable provision of walking groups included facilitation style, health champions, marketing approaches and clarity and collaboration with primary care referrers. Conclusion Walking groups can be used to support individuals to engage in health-promoting occupations. An occupational perspective can usefully inform practice.
