Introduction This is a discussion paper to examine the issues surrounding management of work-related injuries by physiotherapists and
occupational therapists in Hong Kong. Therapists working in public hospitals are faced with managing injured workers with
limited resources and this frequently results in suboptimal outcomes. Methods In this paper, five experienced therapists critically reviewed the current practices in the physiotherapy and occupational
therapy professions in Hong Kong, with regard to managing patients with work injuries. In many hospitals, therapists still
practice with a disease-based model focusing on symptom relief and restoration of general physical function. We collated information
about current programs initiated by physiotherapists and occupational therapists to provide more strategic intervention strategies
for early screening of high-risk patients and adaptive biopsychosocial interventions targeting return-to-work outcomes. Clinical
and system-level barriers and facilitators of a major paradigm shift towards work disability prevention are discussed. Conclusion Physiotherapists and occupational therapists need to develop more strategic collaborations and actively voice out the need
for major systematic changes within the local healthcare system, in order to provide a more effective management approach
in line with the concept of Work Disability Prevention. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: There is a need to create, disseminate, and implement new knowledge in the work disability prevention (WDP) field. Training programs attracting high-quality applicants and taking into account the complexity of this emerging field are urgently needed. METHODS: An advanced training program, funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), was developed by 24 mentors affiliated with nine different universities. The main objective of this program is to develop transdisciplinary knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding WDP. This program has been developed for PhD students or post-doctoral fellows already registered full-time in a Canadian or recognized foreign university whose main interest is WDP, regardless of the health problem. RESULTS: Since its implementation, the program received two successive cohorts of 10 students. They were registered in 13 universities in five countries and trained in nine different disciplines. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCES: Appropriate WDP research may save major societal costs attributable to prolonged work disability. The proposed training program will contribute to developing tomorrow's research workforce. 相似文献

Introduction Workplace disability prevention is important, but stakeholders can differ in their appreciation of such interventions. We
present a responsive evaluation of a workplace disability prevention intervention in a Canadian healthcare organization. Three
groups of stakeholders were included: designers of the intervention, deliverers, and workers. The aim was to examine the appreciation
of this intervention by analyzing the discrepancies with respect to what these various stakeholders see as the causes of work
disability, what the intervention should aim at to address this problem, and to what extent the intervention works in practice.
Methods A qualitative research method was used, including data-triangulation: (a) documentary materials; (b) semi-structured interviews
with the deliverers and workers (n = 14); (c) participatory observations of group meetings (n = 6); (d) member-checking meetings
(n = 3); (e) focus-group meetings (n = 2). A grounded theory approach, including some ethnographic methodology, was used for
the data-analysis. Results Stakeholders’ perceptions of causes for work disability differ, as do preferred strategies for prevention. Designers proposed
work-directed measures to change the workplace and work organizations, and individual-directed measures to change workers’
behaviour. Deliverers targeted individual-directed measures, however, workers were mostly seeking work-directed measures.
To assess how the intervention was working, designers sought a wide range of outcome measures. Deliverers focused on measurable
outcomes targeted at reducing work time-loss. Workers perceived that this intervention offered short-term benefits yet fell
short in ensuring sustainable return-to-work. Conclusion This study provides understanding of where discrepancies between stakeholders’ perceptions about interventions come from.
Our findings have implications for workplace disability prevention intervention development, implementation and evaluation
criteria. 相似文献

Increased rates of work disability and its associated costs have prompted businesses to develop innovative approaches to managing the health and productivity of the work force. The paper 1) provides practitioners with the results of research that demonstrates the importance of employer organizational factors in preventing and resolving work disability, and 2) provides researchers with measures that can efficiently assess organizational factors and advance clinical research by incorporating contextual factors involved in occupational rehabilitation. Data from a series of studies in Michigan are reviewed and it is concluded that employer reports of organizational policies and practices (OPPs) are important in reducing the number of work-related disabilities and their consequences for the employee and for the company. We test the hypothesis that employee reports of OPPs are reliable and valid. To test the reliability and validity of an employee version of the same instrument, we used data from a prospective community-based study of 198 workers with carpal tunnel syndrome. Four OPPs were identified as important: people-oriented culture ( = .88), safety climate ( = .88), disability management policies and practices ( = .88), and ergonomic practices ( = .88). These four scales were shown to have strong test–retest reliabilities and predictive validity. It was concluded that the conceptual model guiding the research in Michigan was supported with research from another State, Maine, using an individual-level measure of OPPs. 相似文献

Background: The process of returning disabled workers to work presents numerous challenges. In spite of the growing evidence regarding
work disability prevention, little uptake of this evidence has been observed. One reason for limited dissemination of evidence
is the complexity of the problem, as it is subject to multiple legal, administrative, social, political, and cultural challenges.
Purpose and methods: A literature review and collection of experts' opinion is presented, on the current evidence for work disability prevention,
and barriers to evidence implementation. Recommendations are presented for enhancing implementation of research results. Conclusion: The current evidence regarding work disability prevention shows that some clinical interventions (advice to return to modified
work and graded activity programs) and some non-clinical interventions (at a service and policy/community level but not at
a practice level) are effective in reducing work absenteeism. Implementation of evidence in work disability is a major challenge
because intervention recommendations are often imprecise and not yet practical for immediate use, many barriers exist, and
many stakeholders are involved. Future studies should involve all relevant stakeholders and aim at developing new strategies
that are effective, efficient, and have a potential for successful implementation. These studies should be based upon a clearer
conceptualization of the broader context and inter-relationships that determine return to work outcomes. 相似文献

Self-Perceptions on the Impact of Diabetes Among Working Adults: Insights into Disability Prevention
Effective diabetes self-management requires persons to be active participants in their care to prevent poor function and maintain independence and employment. Persons' perceptions and understanding of the potential impact of the disease could influence their self-management practices and success. This study explores perceptions on the impact of diabetes on future independence and employment. Findings indicate that 34% of participants believed diabetes would affect their employment, and 57% believed it would impact their independence. Logistic regression analyses showed that participants who believed that diabetes would impact employment were more likely to be younger, Native Hawaiian, and in poor physical health and to have been diagnosed with diabetes for a longer period of time. Those concerned with future independence were more likely to be younger and in poor physical and mental health. Understanding the associations between individual characteristics and perceived future abilities may enable healthcare professionals to tailor health education, promotion, and maintenance interventions to the needs of specific sub-populations of diabetics. 相似文献

Secondary Prevention of Work Disability: Community-Based Psychosocial Intervention for Musculoskeletal Disorders 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Sullivan MJ Ward LC Tripp D French DJ Adams H Stanish WD 《Journal of occupational rehabilitation》2005,15(3):377-392
INTRODUCTION: One objective of the present research was to examine the degree to which psychological risk factors could be reduced through participation in a community-based psychosocial intervention for work-related musculoskeletal disorders. A second objective was to examine whether psychosocial risk reduction had an effect on the probability of return to work. METHODS: Participants were 215 Workers Compensation Board claimants with work-related musculoskeletal disorders who had been absent from work for an average of approximately 7 months (M = 28.8 weeks, range = 4-100 weeks) and were referred to a community-based multidisciplinary secondary prevention program in Nova Scotia, Canada. RESULTS: In the current sample, 63.7% of participants returned to work within 4 weeks of treatment termination. The percentage reductions in targeted risk factors from pretreatment to posttreatment were as follows: catastrophizing (32%), depression (26%), fear of movement/re-injury (11%), and perceived disability (26%). Logistic regression indicated that elevated pretreatment scores on fear of movement and re-injury (OR = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.35-0.95) and pain severity (OR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.43-0.96) were associated with a lower probability of return to work. A second logistic regression addressing the relation between risk factor reduction and return to work revealed that only reductions in pain catastrophizing (OR = 0.17, 95% CI = 0.07-0.46) were significant predictors of return to work. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study provide further evidence that risk factor reduction can impact positively on short term return to work outcomes. SIGNIFICANCE: Outcomes of rehabilitation programs for work disability might be improved by incorporating interventions that specifically target catastrophic thinking. Community-based models of psychosocial intervention might represent a viable approach to the management of work disability associated with musculoskeletal disorders. 相似文献

Introduction: The economic growth in Asia Pacific brings with it challenges and opportunities in many areas of work and health. As economies grow and work demands increase so do accidents, injures and work disability. Methods: Burns, chemical exposures, and construction related injuries are often catastrophic in severity and lead to work disability, major acute medical and subsequent rehabilitation efforts. In addition to these acute injuries, musculoskeletal and chronic illnesses are also sources of work disability. Results: Industrial injuries and health problems are often explained and managed based on the classic unidimensional hazard prevention model. In contrast, work disability is a multi-factorial problem and requires more complex conceptualizations than an exposure outcome model. The economic impact of disability, limitations of the widely used impairment based disability determination method, lack of adherence to wide scale implementation of evidence based clinical approaches, the need for meaningful stakeholder involvement and the potential of a multivariable view of work disability, in all aspects of work disability prevention, management and policy are discussed in the context of Asia Pacific economic growth. Conclusions: With ideal alignment of diverse goals and incentives along with consideration of past efforts in disability prevention and management, new models, processes and policies can be created as commerce in these countries continues to grow. 相似文献

The limited efficacy of prior eating disorder (ED) prevention programs led to the development of dissonance-based interventions (DBIs) that utilize dissonance-based persuasion principles from social psychology. Although DBIs have been used to change other attitudes and behaviors, only recently have they been applied to ED prevention. This article reviews the theoretical rationale and empirical support for this type of prevention program. Relative to assessment-only controls, DBIs have produced greater reductions in ED risk factors, ED symptoms, future risk for onset of threshold or subthreshold EDs, future risk for obesity onset, and mental health utilization, with some effects persisting through 3-year follow-up. DBIs have also produced significantly stronger effects than alternative interventions for many of these outcomes, though these effects typically fade more quickly. A meta-analysis indicated that the average effects for DBIs were significantly stronger than those for non-DBI ED prevention programs that have been evaluated. DBIs have produced effects when delivered to high-risk samples and unselected samples, as well as in efficacy and effectiveness trials conducted by six independent labs, suggesting that the effects are robust and that DBIs should be considered for the prevention of other problems, such as smoking, substance abuse, HIV, and diabetes care. 相似文献

Purpose To improve the mental health component of the Work Disability Functional Assessment Battery (WD-FAB), developed for the US Social Security Administration’s (SSA) disability determination process. Specifically our goal was to expand the WD-FAB scales of mood & emotions, resilience, social interactions, and behavioral control to improve the depth and breadth of the current scales and expand the content coverage to include aspects of cognition & communication function. Methods Data were collected from a random, stratified sample of 1695 claimants applying for the SSA work disability benefits, and a general population sample of 2025 working age adults. 169 new items were developed to replenish the WD-FAB scales and analyzed using factor analysis and item response theory (IRT) analysis to construct unidimensional scales. We conducted computer adaptive test (CAT) simulations to examine the psychometric properties of the WD-FAB. Results Analyses supported the inclusion of four mental health subdomains: Cognition & Communication (68 items), Self-Regulation (34 items), Resilience & Sociability (29 items) and Mood & Emotions (34 items). All scales yielded acceptable psychometric properties. Conclusions IRT methods were effective in expanding the WD-FAB to assess mental health function. The WD-FAB has the potential to enhance work disability assessment both within the context of the SSA disability programs as well as other clinical and vocational rehabilitation settings. 相似文献

Latinos tend to be under-represented in cancer research and in bio-repositories. We conducted a Spanish-language, interviewer-administered cross-sectional survey of 331 foreign-born Latinos from Central and South America attending safety-net clinics in order to describe factors associated with knowledge about and intention to provide bio-specimens for research purposes. We used logistic regression and multiple imputation methods to evaluate associations between socio-cultural measures, medical trust, demographics, as well as knowledge about and intentions to provide bio-specimens. Almost half (47 %) of respondents knew what bio-specimens were, and 67 % said that they would provide a specimen after being given information about what this involved; this increased to 72 % among those with prior knowledge. Controlling for covariates, Latinos with a high school education and above were more likely to know what a bio-specimen was and to say they would provide bio-specimens than were those with lower levels of education [adjusted OR (aOR) 2.85, 95 % CI 1.37–5.96; and 3.49, 95 % CI 1.41–8.63, p ≤ 0.01, respectively]. Those with greater social integration were more likely to know about bio-specimens than those with less integration (aOR 2.54, 95 % CI 1.45–4.46, p = 0.001). Higher endorsement of family values was independently associated with intent to give bio-specimens (aOR 1.11, 95 % CI 1.02–1.20, p = 0.017 per five-point increase in “familism” score). Medical mistrust was not related to intentions to provide specimens. Our results suggest that interventions to increase willingness to provide bio-specimens could leverage trusted clinics or social networks and should consider individuals’ education and socio-cultural perspectives. 相似文献

Objectives. We compared national prevalence and wealth-related inequality in disability across a large number of countries from all income groups.Methods. Data on 218 737 respondents participating in the World Health Survey 2002–2004 were analyzed. A composite disability score (0–100) identified respondents who experienced significant disability in physical, mental, and social functioning irrespective of their underlying health condition. Disabled persons had disability composite scores above 40. Wealth was evaluated using an index of economic status in households based on ownership of selected assets. Socioeconomic inequalities were measured using the slope index of inequality and the relative index of inequality.Results. Median age-standardized disability prevalence was higher in the low- and lower middle-income countries. In all the study countries, disability was more prevalent in the poorest than in the richest wealth quintiles. Pro-rich inequality was statistically significant in 43 of 49 countries, with disability prevalence higher among populations with lower wealth. Median relative inequality was higher in the high- and upper middle-income countries.Conclusions. Integrating equity components into the monitoring of disability trends would help ensure that interventions reach and benefit populations with greatest need.The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are more than 1 billion people in the world living with some form of disability, of whom nearly 200 million have considerable difficulties in functioning.1 Almost everyone will experience disability at some time in their lives. Those who live longer will endure increasing difficulties in everyday physical and mental functioning.1 The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities2 identified disability as an international priority area for concerted action.Reported disability prevalence rates are lower in low- and lower middle-income countries than in upper middle- and high-income countries.1 However, this may reflect different approaches to measuring and defining disability within and between individual countries and also different age distributions in the countries.3–5 Surveys conducted in developing countries tend to focus on impairments. In developed countries, the focus is often on broader areas of participation and the need for services.1 There is clearly a need to improve comparability between countries and studies, but in order to do this it is necessary to achieve consistency in definition and measurement.The term disability is often used to refer to difficulties undertaking everyday tasks. Specific functional characterizations related to the activities of daily living are beneficial for many purposes (e.g., assessing eligibility for specific benefits or interventions). However, as a construct, disability spans many health conditions encompassing capacity limitations in physical, mental, and social functioning.6 Disability is increasingly becoming a major public health issue, but before effective policy responses can be formulated, it is necessary to achieve clarification and agreement on definition and measurement.7Consistent with the WHO and World Bank World Report on Disability,1 we applied the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)8 framework. Disability included limitations in functioning that result from interactions between the individual’s health condition (e.g., diseases, injuries, and disorders) and environmental factors. We focused on measuring decrements in functioning that could be experienced by individuals in their body functions or capacities to carry out a set of activities not necessarily linked to their underlying health condition.9Many authors have referred to specific domains of disability, aspects of functional status (e.g., mobility, blindness, or deafness), or specific population subgroups (e.g., institutionalized populations or older age groups) in the disability literature. In this study, disability refers to any decrement in functioning in a chosen set of domains, irrespective of health condition. Individuals with arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, or depression could experience decrements in functioning, as well as those who are deaf, blind, or paralyzed.Persons with disability experience worse socioeconomic outcomes than persons without disability. Disability correlates with disadvantage, but causation is multidirectional.1 Disability can lead to socioeconomic disadvantage and vice versa. There is country-level evidence of correlation between disability and various indicators of socioeconomic status (SES) such as education, income, and housing.10–12 Given the rapid aging of the world’s populations, extending knowledge of the social and economic determinants of disability is timely. Developing policies and interventions to target the determinants of these inequalities requires urgent policy attention at national and international levels. Building upon the World Report on Disability,1 we examined how disability prevalence is distributed within country-specific adult populations in accordance with a standardized wealth index of SES.Most previous studies were conducted in higher income countries.13–16 This work advances international understanding of socioeconomic inequality in disability because the analysis covered household survey data collected from a large number of countries at varying income levels.Although the World Report on Disability1 used the ICF definition, the Report did not detail how disability prevalence was distributed within country-specific adult populations in accordance with SES. We aimed to measure and compare national prevalence and wealth-related inequality in disability among adults, aged 18 years and older, across a large number of countries from all income groups using a comparable data set and measurement method. 相似文献
