    Abstract:

    One in five Americans experiences disability that affects their daily function because of impairments in mobility, cognitive function, sensory impairment, or communication impairment. The need for Rehabilitation strategies to optimize function and reduce disability is a clear priority for research to address this public health challenge. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently published a Research Plan on Rehabilitation that provides a set of priorities to guide the field over the next 5 years. The plan was developed with input from multiple Institutes and Centers within the NIH, the National Advisory Board for Medical Rehabilitation Research, and the public. This article provides an overview of the need for this research plan, an outline of its development, and a listing of six priority areas for research. The NIH is committed to working with all stakeholder communities engaged in Rehabilitation research to track progress made on these priorities and to work to advance the science of medical Rehabilitation.This article is being published almost simultaneously in the following six journals: American Journal of Occupational Therapy, American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, NeuroRehabilitation and Neural Repair, Physical Therapy, and Rehabilitation Psychology. Citation information is as follows: NIH Medical Rehabilitation Coordinating Committee. Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2017;97(4):404-407.

    Abstract:

    Approximately 53 million Americans live with a disability. For decades, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has been conducting and supporting research to discover new ways to minimize disability and enhance the quality of life of people with disabilities. After the passage of the American With Disabilities Act, the NIH established the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research with the goal of developing and implementing a Rehabilitation research agenda. Currently, a total of 17 institutes and centers at NIH invest more than $500 million per year in Rehabilitation research. Recently, the director of NIH, Dr Francis Collins, appointed a Blue Ribbon Panel to evaluate the status of Rehabilitation research across institutes and centers. As a follow-up to the work of that panel, NIH recently organized a conference under the title "Rehabilitation Research at NIH: Moving the Field Forward." This report is a summary of the discussions and proposals that will help guide Rehabilitation research at NIH in the near future.This article is being published almost simultaneously in the following six journals: American Journal of Occupational Therapy, American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, NeuroRehabilitation and Neural Repair, Physical Therapy, and Rehabilitation Psychology.

  • geriatric Rehabilitation Psychology
    2017
    Co-Authors: Michelle E Mlinac, Kyle S Page, Kate L M Hinrichs
    Abstract:

    Older adults on the Rehabilitation unit often present with complex psychological needs that can impact on their stay. Depression, anxiety, cognitive impairment, and behavioral issues may impede recovery from illness or injury. This chapter offers an overview of the aging and mental health issues relevant to the rehab setting. Dementia, depression, and delirium are common differential diagnoses. Assessments and interventions should be adapted to the needs of an older adult. Interdisciplinary teamwork is identified as a critical component of effective care with this population.
