Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

174
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

2.2K
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Assistive Technologies
  • Stroke Recovery

Background:

  • Community-dwelling stroke survivors require effective home-based exercise solutions.
  • Caregivers need resources and knowledge to support stroke survivors' exercise routines.
  • Existing interventions often lack the necessary technical support for sustained engagement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail the development of ActivABLES, a novel technical intervention.
  • To promote home-based exercise and physical activity engagement for stroke survivors.
  • To support caregivers in facilitating stroke survivors' rehabilitation.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Medical Research Council (MRC) framework for complex intervention development.
  • Employed human-centered design and co-design principles throughout the process.
  • Conducted user studies, including interviews and prototype testing with stroke survivors and caregivers.

Main Results:

  • Developed six distinct prototypes: ActivFOAM, WalkingSTARR, ActivBALL, ActivSTICKS, ActivLAMP, and ActivTREE.
  • Prototypes target specific exercises like balance, walking, and upper arm/hand movements.
  • All exercise prototypes can connect to feedback systems (ActivLAMP, ActivTREE) and offer individualized settings.

Conclusions:

  • The ActivABLES development followed a rigorous, iterative process combining user-centered design and the MRC framework.
  • Six functional prototypes are now available for feasibility testing in a real-world setting.
  • This intervention shows promise for enhancing home-based exercise adherence among stroke survivors.
