Client and Therapist Perspectives on the Influence of Low Vision and Chronic Conditions on Performance and Occupational Therapy Intervention / Beth A. Barstow in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 69/3 (mai -juin 2015)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 69/3 (mai -juin 2015) . - p.10 Titre : Client and Therapist Perspectives on the Influence of Low Vision and Chronic Conditions on Performance and Occupational Therapy Intervention Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Beth A. Barstow ; Mary Warren ; Swetal THAKER ; et al. Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.10 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Cécité  Maladie chronique  Maladie associée  Handicap visuel  Personne âgée  ErgothérapeuteChronic disease  Comorbidity  Human activities and occupations  Occupational therapy  Vision/low Résumé : OBJECTIVE. We explored how vision loss and comorbid chronic conditions influence occupational therapy intervention by gathering perspectives from occupational therapists treating clients with low vision and from older adults with low vision. METHOD. We surveyed 59 occupational therapists on the frequency of comorbidities in their clients and their influence on low vision intervention. Eight older adults with low vision participated in in-depth interviews and observations on the influence of low vision and comorbidities on their occupational performance. Conclusions reflect data analysis from both methods. RESULTS. The occupational therapists modified low vision interventions to address the added effect of each comorbidity. Modifications included more treatment sessions, home visits, referrals to other professions, and provision of strategies to address comorbidities. The older adults viewed vision loss as a stronger influence than comorbidities on independence in daily occupations. CONCLUSION. Both vision loss and comorbidities influence occupational performance, supporting the need for interventions to address both conditions.

Lighting as a Compensatory Strategy for Acquired Visual Deficits After Stroke: Two Case Reports. / Matthew Green in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 72/2 (March/April 2018)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 72/2 (March/April 2018) . - pp.1-6 Titre : Lighting as a Compensatory Strategy for Acquired Visual Deficits After Stroke: Two Case Reports. Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Matthew Green, Auteur ; Beth A. Barstow, Auteur ; Laura K. Vogtle, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp.1-6 Langues : Américain (ame) Mots-clés : Accident vasculaire cérébral  Troubles de la vision  lumière  ergothérapie Résumé : OBJECTIVE. The objective of this article was to explore the effects of enhanced lighting on the function of people with an acquired visual deficit resulting from cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in an inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF). METHOD. An ABAB design was used with two cases to assess how a short-term intervention involving lighting changes affected clients' grooming performance in an IRF. Analysis consisted of scores on the grooming section of the FIM®, times for each grooming task, and light meter readings. RESULTS. Both participants demonstrated improvements in function as measured by the FIM and in time to complete grooming tasks with enhanced lighting. CONCLUSION. These results suggest that individualized lighting can lead to improved grooming function in clients with CVA.

Perspectives on home safety / Beth A. Barstow in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/6 (novembre-décembre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/6 (novembre-décembre 2011) . - p. 635-642 Titre : Perspectives on home safety : do home safety assessments address the concerns of clients with vision loss ? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Beth A. Barstow ; Laura K. Vogtle ; Deborah K. BENNETT Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 635-642 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Activités vie quotidienne  Sécurité  Soins domicile  Trouble vision Résumé : PURPOSE. We explored the occupational performance and home safety perspectives of older adults with vision loss. Our study focused on the person–environment interaction to ascertain whether participants’ concerns are addressed by three commonly used home safety assessments. METHOD. Twenty-two older adults with vision loss participated in face-to-face interviews regarding their perspectives on home safety. We compared categories generated from a content analysis of the data with the contents of three standardized home safety assessments. RESULTS. Five categories of home safety emerged from the analysis: (1) lighting, (2) contrast, (3) visual distractions, (4) glare, and (5) compensation strategies. Comparisons of content in the three home safety assessments with emerged categories revealed that study participants had specific concerns about home safety that were not thoroughly addressed in the selected assessments. CONCLUSION. The findings provide preliminary content areas that should be included in the development of a home assessment specific to the low vision population.

Special issue: Low vision rehabilitation / Beth A. Barstow in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 82 Issue 8 (Août 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 82 Issue 8 (Août 2019) . - p. 455-456 Titre : Special issue: Low vision rehabilitation Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Beth A. Barstow Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : p. 455-456 Note générale : doi.org/10.1177/0308022619858940 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : According to the World Health Organization (WHO, 2014), there are an estimated 246 million individuals throughout the world living with low vision. This rate is expected to grow over the next few decades, primarily due to our aging global population (WHO, 2014). Because occupational therapists must be prepared to address the occupational participation needs of those with low vision, this special issue of the British Journal of Occupational Therapy is timely. I am pleased to be able to create an issue of diverse topics addressing visual impairment from a broad international perspective including Canada, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States (USA). We hope you will enjoy reading this special issue reflecting the scope of occupational therapy in low vision rehabilitation.

Understanding the occupational performance experiences of individuals with low vision / Sarah E. Blaylock in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Volume 78 numéro 7 (Juillet 2015)

Vogtle, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : p.412-421 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Activities of daily living  leisure  occupational therapy Résumé : Introduction Occupational therapy practitioners who provide interventions for adults with low vision need to understand challenges with occupational performance from the individual’s perspective in order to implement effective treatment. The purpose of this study was to understand self-described occupational behaviors of persons with low vision. Method This qualitative study included semi-structured interviews regarding the occupational experiences of 22 individuals with varying levels of vision impairment. Transcribed data were organized according to the areas of occupation reported in the American Occupational Therapy Association’s Practice Framework. Results Participants described occupational performance of activities of daily living, instrumental activities of daily living, and leisure. Within each area of occupation, participants reported lighting, contrast, familiarity, and organization within the environment as facilitators or barriers to participation. Participants with increased vision loss relied heavily on assistive devices, task simplification, and others to perform desired occupations. Conclusion The information obtained in this study can assist practitioners in selecting more effective interventions to increase the independence and safety of individuals with low vision.
