Department of Veterans Affairs Quality Enhancement Research Initiative for Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a lifelong condition, requiring ongoing efforts by multiple disciplines to stabilize, diminish, or prevent impairments; avoid or limit secondary complications; and improve or maintain social role functioning and quality of life for the individual throughout his or her life. There are approximately 200,000 persons with SCI in the United States, of whom roughly 22% are veterans. The estimated national economic impact of …
Meta-Analysis with Longitudinal Studies
A recent study published in an international medical journal presented an opportunity to demonstrate the difficulties of interpreting meta-analysis results with longitudinal data. We conducted a new meta-analysis using identical data from the published study and showed contradictory results
Multidisciplinary rehabilitation versus medical care
Can Meta-Analysis Help Determine Whether Rehabilitation Medicine Improves Outcome
Critical assessment of current meta-analyses of research evaluating outcomes of programs in rehabilitation is presented as are recommendations for use of appropriate selection criteria and data in future meta-analyses
Evaluating Hospital Discharge Planning
To select patients for early discharge planning, a randomized clinical trial evaluated a protocol that used risk factors identified upon hospital admission. The goal of the study was to determine if intervention with high-risk patients could reduce the need for hospital admission or skilled care. Of 13,255 patients screened, 835 study participants were identified as "at risk" for frequent health care resource use. Half of the high-risk patients w…
Factors influencing the decision to rehabilitate
Effect of Mental Disorders on Hospital Readmission for Medical/Surgical Patients
To estimate the relationship between mental health problems and use of medical resources, this study compared readmission rates of medical/surgical patients who had a comorbid psychiatric disorder with those who did not. Patients with mental disorders were no more likely to be readmitted for medical problems after their index hospitalization than patients without psychiatric comorbidity. Results may assist in determining whether to include psychi…
