This review aims to evaluate the level of scientific evidence for the effectiveness of Community Occupational Therapy interventions.
A systematic review was used to analyze and synthesize the studies collected. The databases of Cochrane, OTseeker, OTCATS, Web of Science, Scielo and Scopus were used in order to collect articles published between 2007 and 2020. PRISMA recommendations were followed.
A total of 12 articles comprised part of the study (7 randomized controlled studies, 4 systematic reviews and 1 meta-analysis). The main areas of practice were geriatric gerontology (22.1%) and mental health (19.7%), which were statistically significant (χ; < 0.005) compared to the rest. Regarding the studies analyzed, all of them had scores of >7 on the PEDro and AMSTAR scales.
Research on Community Occupational Therapy constitutes a consolidated line of research but the objectives and areas of research were limited. Descriptive qualitative methodology predominated and studies on the effectiveness of Community Occupational Therapy interventions showed a medium-low level of evidence.
本综述旨在评估社区职业治疗干预措施有效性的科学证据水平。
采用系统综述方法对收集到的研究进行分析和综合。为了收集 2007 年至 2020 年期间发表的文章,我们使用了 Cochrane、OTseeker、OTCATs、Web of Science、Sclo 和 Scopus 数据库。我们遵循了 PRISMA 建议。
共有 12 篇文章构成了研究的一部分(7 项随机对照研究、4 项系统评价和 1 项荟萃分析)。主要实践领域为老年老年医学(22.1%)和心理健康(19.7%),与其他领域相比具有统计学意义(χ; <0.005)。就分析的研究而言,所有研究在 PEDro 和 AMSTAR 量表上的评分均>7。
社区职业治疗的研究构成了一个巩固的研究领域,但研究的目标和领域有限。描述性定性方法占主导地位,社区职业治疗干预措施有效性的研究显示出中低水平的证据。
