This article introduces restorgenesis, a new concept for rehabilitation that combines pathogenesis and salutogenesis. It explores recovery potential, milestones, and factors influencing healing, incorporating allostasis for optimal functioning.

Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Medicine
  • Health Sciences
  • Psychology

Context:

  • Current rehabilitation models lack a comprehensive framework for understanding recovery.
  • Existing concepts like pathogenesis and salutogenesis address illness and health promotion separately.
  • The need for a unified concept to explain the multifaceted recovery process is evident.

Purpose:

  • To introduce and define "restorgenesis" as a novel concept integrating pathogenesis and salutogenesis.
  • To explore the core processes of rebuilding and re-equilibrating in recovery.
  • To examine the relevance of allostasis to rehabilitation.

Summary:

  • Restorgenesis is proposed as a hybrid concept merging "pathogenesis" (factors causing illness) and "salutogenesis" (factors promoting health).

Related Experiment Videos

  • It aims to define patient recovery potential, process milestones, and influencing factors.
  • The concept encompasses the rebuilding and re-equilibrating processes central to recovery.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a new theoretical framework for rehabilitation research and practice.
    • Enhances understanding of patient recovery by integrating illness, health, and optimal functioning.
    • Suggests allostasis as a relevant factor in optimizing the rehabilitation process.
