This was a study of a standardized functional restoration program that included 11 centers in seven states, involving 303 patients in the treatment group and 94 patients in the comparison group.
To illustrate the positive effect a functional restoration program has on return to work rates and work retention regardless of previous surgical intervention.
Data were obtained from the initial and discharge evaluations as well as at 6- and 12-month follow-up.
Patients received a standardized work capacity assessment upon entrance and were recommended to the program if they adhered to specific entrance criteria. Treatment patients received the same evaluation at discharge.
Significant improvement in functional abilities, actual return to work, and work retention were noted in the treatment group regardless of treatment intervention.
This study demonstrated improved return to work rates and work retention with surgical and nonsurgical patients after their participation in a functional restoration program.
这是一项关于标准化功能恢复计划的研究,该计划涵盖七个州的11个中心,治疗组有303名患者,对照组有94名患者。
阐明功能恢复计划对重返工作率和工作保留率的积极影响,无论之前是否进行过手术干预。
数据来自初始评估、出院评估以及6个月和12个月的随访。
患者入院时接受标准化工作能力评估,若符合特定入院标准则被推荐参加该计划。治疗组患者出院时接受相同评估。
无论治疗干预如何,治疗组在功能能力、实际重返工作和工作保留方面均有显著改善。
本研究表明,手术患者和非手术患者参与功能恢复计划后,重返工作率和工作保留率均有所提高。
