| Popis: | The purpose of the study was to analyse the content and evaluate the quality of clinical occupational therapy in outpatients as reported by their respective therapists. An inductive and interpretive technique with special study protocols was developed in Sweden for the study of six patients. Each therapist kept a protocol of the patient's 2–3 months' participation in occupational therapy. The protocols were subsequently interpreted independently by another occupational therapist and a physician. At the end of the study, function and ability had improved in four cases and quality of life in five out of six cases as demonstrated by their ability in activities of daily living. |
