Abstract

Purpose: Previous reviews of community-based rehabilitation literature provide scant evidence supporting community-based rehabilitation in Nigeria. This study aimed at discovering the extent of the community-based rehabilitation impact in Nigeria by reviewing published literature and making it available to researchers, CBR project coordinators and managers, and policy-makers. Method: A scoping study of community-based rehabilitation literature on people with disabilities, families, and communities in Nigeria was conducted, using the databases of Pubmed, African journal online, Google Scholar, African journal of disability, Asksource.info, and REHABDATA on naric.com, for articles published between the years 1990 – 2018. Fourteen studies met all the inclusion criteria and were classified according to type as descriptive (n = 4), theory (n = 5), impact (n = 2), and case studies (n = 2) or review (n = 1) papers. Results: The results indicated a recent increase in community-based rehabilitation literature publication. Conclusion: However, there is a need for more well-designed literature to better inform community-based rehabilitation practice.

尼日利亚社区康复:文献范围研究

目的:以前对社区康复文献的回顾提供了很少的证据支持尼日利亚社区康复。本研究旨在通过审查已发表的文献，并将其提供给研究人员、社区康复项目协调员和管理者以及决策者，从而发现尼日利亚社区康复影响的程度。方法:利用Pubmed、African journal online、Google Scholar、African journal of disability、Asksource.info和naric.com上的REHABDATA数据库，对1990年至2018年间发表的关于尼日利亚残疾人、家庭和社区康复的文献进行范围研究。14项研究符合所有纳入标准，并根据类型分为描述性(n = 4)、理论性(n = 5)、影响性(n = 2)、个案研究(n = 2)或综述性(n = 1)论文。结果:近年来社区康复文献的发表有所增加。结论:然而，需要更多精心设计的文献来更好地为社区康复实践提供信息。
