Early intervention for Autism with a parent-delivered Qigong massage program / Louisa M. T. SILVA in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011) . - p. 550-559 Titre : Early intervention for Autism with a parent-delivered Qigong massage program : a randomized controlled trial Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Louisa M. T. SILVA ; Mark SCHALOCK ; Kristen GABRIELSEN Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 550-559 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autisme  Relation parent enfant Résumé : A recent randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a dual parent and trainer-delivered qigong massage intervention for young children with autism resulted in improvement of measures of autism as well as improvement of abnormal sensory responses and self-regulation. The RCT evaluated the effects of the parent-delivered component of the intervention. Forty-seven children were randomly assigned to treatment and wait-list control groups. Treatment group children received the parent-delivered program for 4 mo. Trained therapists provided parent training and support. Improvement was evaluated in two settings—preschool and home—by teachers (blind to group) and parents. Results showed that the parent-delivered program was effective in improving measures of autism (medium effect size) and sensory and self-regulatory responses (large effect size). Teacher data on measures of autism were confirmed by parent data. Results indicate that the parent-delivered component of the program provided effective early intervention for autism that was suitable for delivery at home.

Effect of educational and supportive strategies on the ability of caregivers of people with dementia to maintain participation in that role / Andrea THINNES in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011) . - p. 541-549 Titre : Effect of educational and supportive strategies on the ability of caregivers of people with dementia to maintain participation in that role Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Andrea THINNES ; René PADILLA Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 541-549 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Démence Alzheimer  Education Résumé : A systematic review of evidence of the effectiveness of educational and supportive strategies for enabling caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or related dementias to maintain participation in that role was conducted as part of the American Occupational Therapy Association’s Evidence-Based Literature Review Project. Forty-three articles met inclusion criteria. Results suggest that interventions that jointly engage people with AD and their caregivers in education and training in the home setting are more successful than strategies that focus solely on people with AD. Greater carryover is noted when education and training are implemented at the time that the caregiver identifies concerns. Interventions should provide caregivers with problem solving, technical skills, support, simple home modification strategies, and referral to community resources. Interventions mediated by technology have a positive effect on the caregiver and are especially important for those who live in rural areas.

This study measured skill improvement in prewriting skills, kindergarten readiness, first-name writing, and handwriting-nonspecific fine motor skills of students at Head Start who participated in Handwriting Without Tears®–Get Set for School (HWT–GSS) programming. METHOD. We conducted a two-group, nonrandomized controlled trial using a pretest–posttest design at a rural Head Start. The effectiveness of adding the HWT–GSS curriculum in one preschool classroom was compared with a control classroom. RESULTS. On posttesting, the experimental group made significant improvements compared with the control group in prewriting, kindergarten readiness, and fine motor skills. Both groups made significant improvements between pretesting and posttesting in prewriting, first name writing, and school readiness. CONCLUSION. Adding HWT–GSS to the Head Start program would be beneficial in improving handwriting readiness skills.

Effectiveness of environment-based interventions for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias / René PADILLA in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Thirty-three reports met inclusion criteria. Results suggest that ambient music, aromatherapy, and Snoezelen® are modestly effective in reducing agitation but do not consistently have long-term effects. Visually complex environments that give the illusion of barriers deter people from wandering to unsafe places but do not reduce the urge to wander. Evidence that bright light therapy can aid in regulating mood and the sleep–wake cycle and thus help people remain awake during the day is preliminary. Montessori-based programming can be useful in matching activities to the person’s remaining skills. Further research is needed to evaluate the long-term effect, contraindications, and best dosages of these interventions.

Effectiveness of interventions designed to modify and maintain perceptual abilities in people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias / Lori Letts in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Each article was critically appraised, and the evidence was synthesized. Some interventions use remaining perceptual abilities to enable people to find their way in a facility and decrease attempts at exiting. Preliminary evidence has supported use of visual stimulation and barriers. We found some evidence for the use of auditory stimuli and group therapy that aim to change perceptual abilities. Research with high-level evidence is required to validate these findings. Evidence on the benefits of Snoezelen® is not conclusive for occupational performance outcomes; further research to justify its use as an occupational therapy intervention may be warranted.

The review included 10 articles addressing occupations of self-care and leisure. No reports related to work and social participation were located. Results suggest that evidence for this intervention’s effectiveness is strong. Four practice principles were derived from this appraisal: (1) Occupational therapy programs should be individualized to elicit the person’s highest level of retained skill and interest, (2) cues used while assisting people with AD to complete tasks should be short and provide clear direction, (3) compensatory strategies in the form of environmental modifications and simple adaptive equipment should be specifically implemented on the basis of the unique needs of the person, and (4) caregiver training and involvement are essential in implementing individualized programs.

Twelve research reports met inclusion criteria. Studies reported on three types of intervention: (1) exercise- and motor-based interventions, (2) nursing staff–directed interventions, and (3) multidisciplinary interventions. Strategies were offered as single or multifaceted intervention programs. All types of intervention resulted in benefit, although the evidence for effectiveness is tentative because of the studies’ limitations. More research is needed to better understand appropriate dosages of intervention. No evidence was found for the effectiveness of prevention programs accessed as part of occasional respite care. Occupational therapy was seldom involved in the interventions researched. Because effective fall prevention programs are embedded in people’s daily routines and encouraged participation in occupation, the contribution occupational therapy practitioners can make to the care of people with AD has yet to be fully realized.

We examined rater and test–retest reliability of the Preschool Imitation and Praxis Scale (PIPS). METHOD. We administered the PIPS to 119 typically developing children ages 1.5–4.9 yr. RESULTS. The PIPS demonstrated acceptable intra- and interrater reliability on item level (kw = 0.45–1) and scale level (intraclass correlation coefficient ICC = 0.996; 95% CI: 0.968–0.999 and ICC = 0.995; 95% CI: 0.990–0.997, respectively). The smallest detectable difference of the PIPS was 5.6%, indicating that the change score rated by different raters for an individual child is valid and that the PIPS can be used by different raters as an outcome measure to determine children’s improvement or maturation. Results of test–retest analysis revealed that the PIPS score is stable over time (r = .93). CONCLUSION. The PIPS appears to meet the required standards regarding objectivity and stability. The PIPS may assist clinicians and researchers in evaluating and reevaluating preschoolers’ imitation ability, which is a primary learning strategy of young children.

Prenatal Cocaine exposure and motor performance at 4 months / Rosemarie BIGSBY in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011) . - p. 578 Titre : Prenatal Cocaine exposure and motor performance at 4 months Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rosemarie BIGSBY ; et al. ; Barry LESTER ; Linda L.

The relation between prenatal cocaine exposure and quality of movement was studied at 4 mo using the Posture and Fine Motor Assessment of Infants (PFMAI–I). METHOD. Posture and fine motor scores of 4-month-old infants exposed to cocaine in utero (n = 370) were compared with an unexposed group (n = 533) within the context of gestational age, medical and demographic characteristics, and level of prenatal substance exposure using the PFMAI–I. RESULTS. Infants prenatally exposed to cocaine had significantly lower posture scores than infants in the unexposed group. There was no main effect of cocaine exposure on fine motor scores; however, there were independent effects of gestational age at birth on both posture and fine motor scores at 4-mo corrected age. CONCLUSION. These findings demonstrate independent contributions of prenatal cocaine exposure and prematurity to risk of motor delay and support the validity of the PFMAI–I as a measure of motor competence in early infancy.

Usefulness of screening tools for predicting driving performance in people with Parkinson’s disease / Sherrilene Classen in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011) . - p. 579-588 Titre : Usefulness of screening tools for predicting driving performance in people with Parkinson’s disease Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Sherrilene Classen ; et al. ; D. N. LANFORD ; D. P. WITTER Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 579-588 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Conduite automobile  Maladie Parkinson Résumé : OBJECTIVE. We used screening tests administered by a certified driving rehabilitation specialist and by Parkinson’s disease (PD) specialty neurologists to develop a model to predict on-road outcomes for patients with PD. METHOD. We administered a battery of screening tests to 41 patients with PD and 41 age-matched control participants before on-road testing. We used statistical models to predict actual on-road performance. RESULTS. The PD group had a higher failure rate, indicating more on-road errors. For the PD participants, the Useful Field of View (UFOV) Subtest 2 and Rapid Pace Walk were responsible for most of the variance in the on-road test. The model accurately categorized pass–fail outcomes for 81% of PD patients. CONCLUSION. Clinical screening batteries may be predictive of driving performance in PD. The UFOV Subtest 2, administered in approximately 15 min, may be the single most useful clinical test for such predictions.

Using occupations to improve quality of life, health and wellness, and client and caregiver satisfaction for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias / Lori Letts in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 65/5 (septembre-octobre 2011) . - p. 497-504 Titre : Using occupations to improve quality of life, health and wellness, and client and caregiver satisfaction for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lori Letts ; Mary EDWARDS ; et al. ; Julie BERENYI Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p. 497-504 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Activités vie quotidienne  Démence Alzheimer  Vie quotidienne  Loisir  Relation sociale  Promotion santé Résumé : An evidence-based review was undertaken to answer the question, “What is the evidence for the effect of interventions designed to establish, modify, and maintain activities of daily living (ADLs), instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), leisure, and social participation on quality of life (QOL), health and wellness, and client and caregiver satisfaction for people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias?” A systematic search of electronic databases and application of inclusion and exclusion criteria guided the selection of 26 articles. Limited high-level evidence on ADL interventions was identified. IADL interventions for people living in the community showed promise. Tailored and activity-based leisure interventions were common and seemed to have positive impacts on caregiver satisfaction, and some interventions had positive results for client well-being and QOL. Social participation interventions focused on people with dementia still able to engage in verbal social interactions; these interventions had at least short-term positive effects.
