Popis: | Background: The literature on participation in rehabilitation by those with the most severe acquiredbrain injury is very sparse.Objectives: The aim of this study was to explore how physiotherapists promote the participation ofpatients with severe brain injury in therapeutic and daily-life situations in early rehabilitation.Methods: In a qualitative study employing phenomenological philosophy, several video-recorded sessionsof patients with a Rancho Los Amigos Scale score of 3-4 were analysed. Empirical themes wereidentified by four different investigators through individual and consensus-based analyses. The resultswere theoretically stated and supported.Results: In an effort to achieve patient participation, the following four themes seemed to be significant:1) consciously encountering the patient in the moment, 2) the employment of concepts surroundingthe interaction between body and environment, 3) timing and flow of the activities and 4)comprehensive bodily support, guidance and facilitation of the activity and participation in daily-lifeskills.Conclusions: The dynamic use of these four themes seemed to enrich early rehabilitation interventionsfor patients with severe brain injury and low level of consciousness in terms of their participation andfunctioning in everyday life. |
