Background/objective: Literature shows that there is a circular relationship between children's ADHD-related behaviors and parenting stress. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to understand if mindfulness parent trainings have benefits for both parenting stress and the problem behaviors in children with ADHD.

Methods: Five databases, CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO, PubMED, and Web of Science, were searched. Within-group effects at post-treatment and follow-up assessment, and between-group effects at post-treatment were analyzed. Effect sizes (Hedges' g) were also calculated.

Results: Ten studies (5 RCTs and 5 non-RCTs) met the selection criteria and were selected for systematic review, and nine of them were included for meta-analysis. Among these 10 studies, five studies involved mindfulness training for both parents and children, while the other five studies involved mindfulness training for parents only. Within-group effects at post-treatment were small-to-large for all outcomes. Hedges' g ranged between -0.17 [95% CI (-0.98, 0.64)] and 4.70 [95% CI (3.59, 5.81)] for parenting stress; 0.17 [95% CI (-0.03, 0.37)] and 4.03 [95% CI (2.97, 5.09)] for children's problem behaviors; and 0.20 [95% CI (-0.10, 0.50)] and 2.98 [95% CI (2.16, 3.80)] for children's ADHD symptoms. Between-group comparisons showed mindfulness parent training was superior to other active controls on all outcomes.

Conclusion: Findings suggest that mindfulness parent training may be beneficial for parenting stress and children's ADHD-related behaviors, and due to the small number of studies reviewed, cautions should be taken when interpreting the results.

背景/目的:文献表明,儿童adhd相关行为与父母压力之间存在循环关系。本系统综述和荟萃分析旨在了解正念父母训练是否对ADHD儿童的父母压力和问题行为都有好处。方法:检索CINAHL、Embase、PsycINFO、PubMED、Web of Science 5个数据库。分析治疗后组内效应及随访评价,以及治疗后组间效应。效应量(Hedges' g)也进行了计算。结果:10项研究(5项rct和5项非rct)符合入选标准,纳入系统评价,其中9项纳入meta分析。在这10项研究中,有5项研究涉及父母和孩子的正念训练,而其他5项研究仅涉及父母的正念训练。治疗后所有结果的组内效应由小到大。养育压力的对冲系数在-0.17[95%可信区间(-0.98,0.64)]和4.70[95%可信区间(3.59,5.81)]之间;分别为0.17 [95% CI(-0.03, 0.37)]和4.03 [95% CI (2.97, 5.09)];儿童ADHD症状为0.20 [95% CI(-0.10, 0.50)]和2.98 [95% CI(2.16, 3.80)]。组间比较显示,正念父母训练在所有结果上都优于其他主动控制。结论:研究结果表明,正念父母训练可能有利于父母压力和儿童adhd相关行为,由于研究回顾的数量较少,在解释结果时应谨慎。

Background: In school, children are required to perform a range of handwriting tasks. The writing needs to be legible to the child and other readers. The aim of this study was to examine handwriting legibility across different writing tasks and to explore which components might predict overall handwriting legibility. Methods: This was a secondary analysis of data from 148 school-aged children across writing scripts obtained from the Detailed Assessment of Speed of Handwriting: copying-best, copying-quickly and free-writing. Results: Results showed that letter formation was the major predictor of the total HLS score, and significant differences in handwriting legibility were found across the three tasks. Conclusions: The HLS is a practical tool that can benefit occupational therapists who work in schools by assessing handwriting legibility across different handwriting tasks.

背景:在学校里,孩子们被要求完成一系列的书写任务。字迹要清晰,孩子和其他读者都看得懂。本研究的目的是检查不同写作任务的笔迹易读性,并探索哪些成分可能预测整体笔迹易读性。方法:这是对148名学龄儿童的书写数据的二次分析,这些数据来自笔迹速度的详细评估:抄写-最好,抄写-快速和自由书写。结果:字母形成是HLS总分的主要预测因子,三个任务的字迹易读性存在显著差异。结论:HLS是一种实用的工具,可以帮助在学校工作的职业治疗师通过评估不同笔迹任务的笔迹易读性。

Background: Validated outcome measures are essential for assessment and treatment of children with disabilities. The Children's Hand-use Experience Questionnaire (CHEQ) was developed and validated for use in Western countries for children with unilateral hand dysfunction. This study aimed to perform a cross-cultural adaptation and investigate reliability for the Arabic CHEQ.

Methods: Translation and cross-cultural adaptation were performed in four phases: (i) forward-translation and reconciliation with feedback from parents and typically developing children from Jordan (n = 14); (ii) backward-translation and review; (iii) cognitive debriefing with parents and/or their children with unilateral hand dysfunction (n = 17); and (iv) review and proofreading. In the psychometric analyses, 161 children from Jordan (mean age [SD] 10y 8 m [5y 8 m]; 88 males) participated. Internal consistency was evaluated with Cronbach's alpha. Test-retest reliability was evaluated in 39 children with intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and weighted kappa (κ).

Results: Synonyms of four words were added to accommodate for different Arabic dialects. On average, 93% of children with unilateral hand dysfunction and their parents understood the CHEQ items. One response alternative, 'Get help', to the opening question was unclear for 70% of the respondents and need further explanation. Two items about using a knife and fork were difficult to comprehend and culturally irrelevant. High internal consistency was demonstrated (Cronbach's alphas 0.94- 0.97) and moderate to excellent ICC (0.77-0.93). For 18 individual items, κ indicated poor to good agreement (κ between 0.28 and 0.66).

Conclusions: After the suggested minor adjustments, the Arabic CHEQ will be comprehensible, culturally relevant and reliable for assessing children with unilateral hand dysfunction in Jordan.

背景:经过验证的结果测量对于残疾儿童的评估和治疗至关重要。儿童手部使用体验问卷(CHEQ)是西方国家针对单侧手部功能障碍儿童开发和验证的。本研究旨在对阿拉伯语 CHEQ 进行跨文化改编并调查其可靠性:翻译和跨文化改编分四个阶段进行:(i) 根据来自约旦的家长和发育正常儿童的反馈进行正向翻译和调和(n = 14);(ii) 反向翻译和审查;(iii) 与单侧手部功能障碍的家长和/或其子女进行认知汇报(n = 17);(iv) 审查和校对。共有 161 名约旦儿童(平均年龄 [SD] 10 岁 8 m [5 岁 8 m];88 名男性)参与了心理测量分析。内部一致性采用 Cronbach's alpha 进行评估。使用类内相关系数(ICC)和加权卡帕(κ)评估了 39 名儿童的重测可靠性:为适应不同的阿拉伯语方言,增加了四个单词的同义词。平均而言,93% 的单侧手部功能障碍儿童及其家长能够理解 CHEQ 的项目。70%的受访者不清楚开头问题中的一个备选答案 "寻求帮助",需要进一步解释。关于使用刀叉的两个项目难以理解,而且与文化背景无关。问卷的内部一致性较高(Cronbach's alphas 0.94-0.97),ICC(0.77-0.93)为中上水平。对于 18 个单项,κ 显示了较差到良好的一致性(κ 在 0.28 到 0.66 之间):经过建议的小幅调整后,阿拉伯语 CHEQ 在评估约旦单侧手部功能障碍儿童时将具有可理解性、文化相关性和可靠性。

Aims: Our study explored the perceived feasibility of using a home-based telerehabilitation service for older adults with chronic health conditions in Israel.

Method: This mixed-methods study included two focus groups of registered occupational therapists (n = 10) working in rehabilitation wards in Israel. Participants completed an open-ended questionnaire and Likert scale items so that data could be gathered on their perspectives regarding using an in-home telerehabilitation service for older adults after discharge from rehabilitation units. Thematic analysis with an a priori coding approach was applied to the data.

Results: Perceived advantages included transfer to the natural environment and the overcoming of geographical distance. Caregiver support and patient motivation were recognized as enabling factors. Perceived barriers included lack of hands-on contact and the concern that safety could be impeded by technological challenges and the patients' cognitive status.

Conclusions: Findings from this study can potentially contribute to facilitating the implementation of a home-based telerehabilitation service as a practical alternative for elderly patients after discharge from rehabilitation units in Israel.

目的:我们的研究探讨了在以色列为患有慢性疾病的老年人使用家庭远程康复服务的可行性。方法:这项混合方法研究包括两个焦点组,在以色列康复病房工作的注册职业治疗师(n = 10)。参与者完成了一份开放式问卷和李克特量表项目,以便收集他们对老年人出院后使用家庭远程康复服务的看法的数据。采用先验编码方法对数据进行专题分析。结果:感知优势包括对自然环境的迁移和对地理距离的克服。护理人员的支持和患者的动机被认为是促成因素。感知到的障碍包括缺乏实际接触,以及担心安全可能受到技术挑战和患者认知状况的阻碍。结论:本研究的结果可能有助于促进以家庭为基础的远程康复服务的实施,作为以色列老年患者出院后的一种实际选择。

Introduction: Health care expenditure has rapidly increased in Australia. Effective management of occupational therapy services is required to meet clinical demand. Improving our understanding of factors which influence occupational therapy service delivery is a vital step to manage workload distribution and optimise service efficiency. This study aims to examine the influence of patient sociodemographic characteristics, diagnosis and functional independence on the utilisation of occupational therapy resources in hospital inpatients over 18 years old.

Methods: Prospective, cross-sectional, observational cohort study of 4549 inpatients from three hospital sites in Melbourne, Australia. Data extracted from organisational databases and included in this study were: patient demographics, diagnosis, functional level assessed using the SMAF (Functional Autonomy Measurement System) and occupational therapy time-use. Data were analysed using univariable and multivariable modelling.

Results: Occupational therapy time-use was significantly associated with all variables included in analysis (p < 0.05). For each variable the amount and direction of effect differed between hospital sites. The SMAF was the only variable consistently associated with occupational therapy time-use. Higher occupational therapy time-use was associated with lower functional independence (leading to a 3.5 min increase in median occupational therapy time for every unit decrease in SMAF score).

Conclusions: Management of resources within busy hospitals require knowledge of factors associated with occupational therapist time-use. This study identified that time-use could in part be predicted by functional independence, diagnosis and sociodemographic characteristics. Occupational therapy managers can use this information to support decision making while acknowledging other patient and therapist level factors also influence time-use.

澳大利亚的医疗保健支出迅速增加。必须有效管理职业治疗服务,以满足临床需求。提高我们对影响职业治疗服务提供的因素的理解是管理工作量分配和优化服务效率的重要一步。本研究旨在探讨18岁以上住院病人的社会人口学特征、诊断和功能独立性对职业治疗资源利用的影响。方法:前瞻性、横断面、观察性队列研究,来自澳大利亚墨尔本三家医院的4549名住院患者。从组织数据库中提取并纳入本研究的数据包括:患者人口统计、诊断、使用功能自主测量系统(SMAF)评估的功能水平和职业治疗时间使用。数据分析采用单变量和多变量模型。结果:职业治疗时间使用与分析中包含的所有变量显著相关(p)。结论:繁忙医院的资源管理需要了解与职业治疗师时间使用相关的因素。该研究发现,时间利用可以通过功能独立性、诊断和社会人口学特征来部分预测。职业治疗管理人员可以利用这些信息来支持决策,同时承认其他患者和治疗师层面的因素也会影响时间的使用。

Objective: This study was conducted to cross-culturally adapt the Motor-free Visual Perception Test 4 (MVPT-4) for use in Korean contexts and examine its psychometric properties.

Methods: The Korean MVPT-4 (K-MVPT-4) was developed via the process of translation, back-translation, and expert committee review. To establish internal consistency, test-retest reliability, concurrent validity and construct validity of the K-MVPT-4, 295 healthy people aged 10 to 79 years participated in this study. Participants completed the measures for the test-retest reliability on two occasions, 2 weeks apart.

Results: After three steps of cross-cultural adaptation, the K-MVPT-4 was revised to improve its alignment with Korean cultural norms. Cronbach's α for internal consistency was .857 and intra-class correlation coefficient for test-retest reliability was .949. The K-MVPT-4 scores were significantly correlated with those of three motor-reduced subscales of the Korean Developmental Test of Visual Perception-Adolescent (K-DTVP-A) (r = .44-.46, p < .01). Participants' age significantly influenced the K-MVPT-4 scores (p < .001) while their gender did not affect those scores (p = .409). As the age increased, the K-MVPT-4 scores decreased.

Conclusions: The findings indicated that the K-MVPT-4 is a reliable and valid test that Korean rehabilitation service providers can use with confidence to assess clients' visual perceptual abilities.

目的:本研究对运动自由视觉知觉测试4 (MVPT-4)进行跨文化调整,使其适用于韩国语境,并检验其心理测量特性。方法:通过翻译、反译、专家委员会评审等过程,编制韩文MVPT-4 (K-MVPT-4)。为了建立K-MVPT-4的内部一致性、重测信度、并发效度和结构效度,本研究共招募了295名10 ~ 79岁的健康人群。参与者完成了两次测试-重测信度的测量,间隔2周。结果:经过跨文化适应的三个步骤,K-MVPT-4被修订,以提高其与韩国文化规范的一致性。内部一致性的Cronbach’s α为0.857,重测信度的类内相关系数为0.949。K-MVPT-4得分与韩国青少年视觉知觉发展测验(K-DTVP-A)三个运动减少分量表得分显著相关(r = 0.44 -)。46, p p = .409)。随着年龄的增长,K-MVPT-4得分下降。结论:K-MVPT-4是一种可靠有效的测试,韩国康复服务提供者可以放心地使用它来评估来访者的视觉知觉能力。

Background: The most common cognitive dysfunctions in patients with schizophrenia are information processing, memory, and learning. Based on the hypothesis of rehabilitation and brain stimulation in memory and learning, adding a form of neuromodulation to conventional rehabilitation might increase the effectiveness of treatments.

Aims: To explore the effects of psychosocial occupational therapy combined with anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on cognitive performance in patients with Schizophrenia.

Methods: Twenty-four patients diagnosed with schizophrenia were randomized into the experimental and control groups. We used The Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) and the Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment battery (LOTCA) to assess spatial recognition, attention, visual memory, learning abilities, and high-level cognitive functions like problem-solving. All participants received customized psychosocial occupational therapy activities. Furthermore, the experimental group received 12 sessions of active anodal tDCS for 20 minutes with 2 mA intensity on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) while the patients in the sham group received sham tDCS.

Results: Combining tDCS to conventional psychosocial occupational therapy resulted in a significant increase in spatial memory, visual learning, and attention.

Conclusions: Anodal tDCS on the left DLPFC improved visual memory, attention, and learning abilities. Contrary to our expectations, we could not find any changes in complex and more demanding cognitive functions.

背景:精神分裂症患者最常见的认知功能障碍是信息处理、记忆和学习。基于康复和大脑刺激记忆和学习的假设,在常规康复中加入一种神经调节形式可能会提高治疗的有效性。目的:探讨心理社会职业疗法联合经颅直流电刺激(tDCS)对精神分裂症患者认知表现的影响。方法:将24例精神分裂症患者随机分为实验组和对照组。我们使用剑桥神经心理测试自动化电池(CANTAB)和Loewenstein职业治疗认知评估电池(LOTCA)来评估空间识别、注意力、视觉记忆、学习能力和高级认知功能,如解决问题。所有参与者都接受了定制的心理社会职业治疗活动。此外,实验组患者在左背外侧前额叶皮层(DLPFC)接受12次2 mA强度的活跃阳极tDCS,持续20分钟,假手术组患者接受假手术tDCS。结果:将tDCS与传统的心理社会职业治疗相结合,可以显著提高空间记忆、视觉学习和注意力。结论:左侧DLPFC的阳极tDCS改善了视觉记忆、注意力和学习能力。与我们的预期相反,我们没有发现复杂和更苛刻的认知功能有任何变化。

Introduction: The transition to primary school is a significant milestone for children. Transition periods can offer new opportunities to build skills, relationships, and experiences that strengthen self-efficacy. In Singapore, parents play an important role in supporting transition as preschools and primary schools operate independently. Occupational therapists are involved in supporting children with special needs in transitions.

Objective: Focusing on the transition period of getting children ready for primary school, the objectives are (i) to learn about the strategies that parents used for the purpose of transition and understand the intentions behind what they do and (ii) to compare the transition practices and perceived school readiness between parents of children with and without special needs.

Method: A longitudinal study involving 48 parents was conducted over 12 months. Parents completed a survey at the start and end of the year to detect changes from baseline, and semi-structured interviews every two months to gather their subjective experiences and track their child's readiness for transition. The surveys and interviews were conducted on a mobile instant messaging platform. Coding of responses was guided by school readiness domains identified in earlier studies and Occupational Therapy Practice Framework's approaches to intervention.

Results: Most parents focused on establishing and maintaining new self-help and academic skills across the year while few were "modifying" or "preventing". Increasing trends in child readiness were noted for both children with and without special needs.

Conclusion: In family-centred practice, it is important to recognise parents' expertise and resources.

导言升入小学对儿童来说是一个重要的里程碑。过渡时期可以提供新的机会来培养技能、人际关系和经验,从而增强自我效能感。在新加坡,由于学前班和小学是独立运作的,因此家长在支持过渡方面发挥着重要作用。职业治疗师参与支持有特殊需要的儿童过渡:重点关注儿童为上小学做好准备的过渡时期,目标是(i)了解家长为过渡而使用的策略,并理解他们所做事情背后的意图;(ii)比较有特殊需要儿童的家长和无特殊需要儿童的家长在过渡做法和认知入学准备方面的差异:我们在 12 个月内对 48 名家长进行了纵向研究。家长们在学年开始和结束时填写了一份调查表,以检测与基线相比发生的变化,并每两个月进行一次半结构化访谈,以收集他们的主观体验并跟踪他们孩子的过渡准备情况。调查和访谈都是在移动即时通讯平台上进行的。根据早期研究中确定的入学准备领域和职业疗法实践框架的干预方法对回答进行编码:结果:大多数家长关注的重点是在一年中建立和保持新的自助和学习技能,而很少有家长 "修改 "或 "预防 "这些技能。有特殊需求和无特殊需求的儿童的儿童准备度都呈上升趋势:结论:在以家庭为中心的实践中,承认家长的专业知识和资源非常重要。

Objective: To examine the effect of different management methods on the effectiveness of care preventive programmes for community-dwelling older adults.

Methods: This study comprised two facilitator-led (FL) and one participant-led (PL) preventive care classes in Japan. All participants received the intervention for approximately 12 weeks. Functional assessments, occupational dysfunctions, and subjective health were measured before and after the interventions. A two-way mixed design analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was adopted to examine the effect of the interventions, adjusted for previous experiences with preventive care services. The level of significance was set at P < 0.05.

Results: Fourteen participants in the PL group (76.64 ± 6.48 years, 92.9% women) and 29 participants in the FL group (76.55 ± 5.75 years, 75.9% women) were included in the statistical analysis. ANCOVA showed significant group × time interaction effects in the Five Times Sit-to-Stand Test (FTSST), the Timed Up & Go (TUG), occupational deprivation of the Classification and Assessment of Occupational Dysfunction Scale, and self-rated health. Simple main effect tests showed that the TUG decreased significantly in the PL group, while occupational deprivation and self-rated health scores improved significantly. In contrast, FTSST scores significantly improved in the FL group.

Conclusion: PL-type management may be more appropriate for preventing social isolation and withdrawal, while FL-type management may be more appropriate for preventing physical frailty. Selecting not only adequate programmes but also an appropriate management type that matches the service purpose can help provide more effective care preventive services.

目的:探讨不同管理方法对社区居住老年人护理预防方案效果的影响。方法:本研究包括2个以辅导员为主导(FL)和1个以参与者为主导(PL)的日本预防保健班。所有参与者都接受了大约12周的干预。在干预前后测量功能评估、职业功能障碍和主观健康状况。采用双向混合设计协方差分析(ANCOVA)来检验干预措施的效果,并根据先前的预防保健服务经验进行调整。结果:PL组14例(76.64±6.48岁,女性92.9%),FL组29例(76.55±5.75岁,女性75.9%)纳入统计学分析。ANCOVA结果显示,在五次坐立测试(FTSST)、定时起跳测试(TUG)、职业剥夺职业功能障碍分类与评估量表、健康自评量表中存在显著的组时间交互作用。简单主效应检验显示,职业剥夺组的TUG显著降低,职业剥夺和自评健康得分显著提高。相比之下,FL组的FTSST评分显著提高。结论:pl型管理可能更适合于预防社会隔离和退缩,fl型管理可能更适合于预防身体虚弱。不仅选择适当的方案,而且选择与服务目的相匹配的适当管理类型,有助于提供更有效的保健预防服务。

Introduction: Dry needling has been identified as a potential intervention for a variety of diagnoses. Limited evidence exists to support the use of dry needling following surgical intervention of a distal radius fracture. This case report demonstrates the impact of dry needling in the thumb following a distal radius fracture.

Methods: The patient was a 31-year-old healthy female who sustained a distal radius fracture and required surgical intervention. The patient required a volar plate removal and extensor tenolysis. The patient attended traditional occupational therapy with one session of dry needling to assist in improving range of motion and decreasing pain.

Results: The patient benefited from the use of dry needling. The patient had no pain with functional grasping and pinching following dry needling and improved on the Kapandji score from eight to nine out of ten. The patient also reported a decrease in overall pain, from seven to two on the Numeric Pain Rating Scale.

Discussion: The patient benefited from dry needling in the thumb to improve both range of motion and pain symptoms. While the evidence is limited, dry needling may be an appropriate intervention to assist in recovery and reduce thumb pain following distal radius fractures.

简介:干针已被确定为一种潜在的干预多种诊断。有限的证据支持在桡骨远端骨折手术干预后使用干针。本病例报告展示了干针在桡骨远端骨折后对拇指的影响。方法:患者为31岁健康女性,桡骨远端骨折,需手术治疗。患者需要掌侧钢板取出和伸肌腱松解术。患者接受了传统的职业治疗,包括一次干针治疗,以帮助改善活动范围和减轻疼痛。结果:患者受益于干针的使用。患者在干针刺后无疼痛,握紧和捏握功能,Kapandji评分从8分提高到9分(满分10分)。患者还报告了整体疼痛的减少,在数字疼痛评定量表上从7降至2。讨论:患者受益于拇指干针改善活动范围和疼痛症状。虽然证据有限,但干针可能是辅助桡骨远端骨折后恢复和减轻拇指疼痛的适当干预措施。
