简要总结
The goal of this implementation study is to improve aftercare for patients with ABI receiving outpatient rehabilitation. The ABI-motion program was developed to improve and active lifestyle and to prevent persistent complaints after ABI and poor HR-QoL.The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Is the ABI-motion program feasible?
- What are the health benefits of the ABI-motion program?
Participants will receive brain education, a joint therapy session with a physical or occupational or movement therapist and a buddy from a patient support organization during outpatient rehabilitation, followed by community buddy support after discharge from outpatient rehabilitation, and follow-up by a rehabilitation physician.
详细描述
Rationale: Many people with acquired brain injury (ABI) experience difficulties in reintegration into their social life after discharge from the rehabilitation center. It is also known that people with ABI do not meet the physical activity guidelines; they have lower physical activity levels than healthy people and they have difficulty maintaining their physical fitness level reached during rehabilitation. An inactive lifestyle may lead to persistent complaints, such as fatigue, anxiety or depression, and may result in a poor health-related quality of life (HR-QoL).
Objective: To improve aftercare for patients with ABI receiving outpatient rehabilitation, aimed at promoting an active lifestyle to prevent persistent complaints after ABI and poor HR-QoL.
Study design: Care improvement study using a prospective mono-center cohort with a pre-post implementation study design.
Study population: Patients with ABI receiving outpatient rehabilitation therapy.
Intervention (if applicable): Implementation of an aftercare program that strengthens the cooperation between rehabilitation center and local patient support organisations in the community. The aftercare program integrates standard outpatient rehabilitation and community services, including: 1) brain education regarding long-term consequences of ABI, physical activity guidelines, and patient support organizations in the area; 2) a joint physical/ occupational/ movement therapy session with a buddy from a patient support organisation during outpatient rehabilitation; 3) buddy support (max 8 hrs) in the community towards an active lifestyle after rehabilitation discharge; 4) follow-up by the rehabilitation physician.
