General Rehabilitation Scientific Session-Session Presentation

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The showcase featured several research projects related to rehabilitation in various conditions including cancer survivors, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, total knee arthroplasty, and total hip arthroplasty. The projects aimed to identify factors that may influence outcomes such as return to acute care or discharge destination after inpatient rehabilitation. Common factors associated with increased readmission or discharge to subacute rehab included older age and higher BMI, while factors such as race and income level did not show significant associations. The studies emphasized the need for targeted interventions and support for patients at higher risk for adverse outcomes. The research highlighted the importance of ongoing assessment and tailoring of rehabilitation approaches to meet the needs of individual patients. The studies also underscored the need for comprehensive data collection and analysis to enhance our understanding of rehabilitation outcomes and inform future interventions.
