Okita Y, Kawaguchi Y, Inoue Y, Ohno K, Sawada T, Levack W, Tomori K. Characteristics of goal-setting tools in adult rehabilitation: A scoping review. Clin Rehabil 2024; 38:234-250. [PMID: 37644842 PMCID: PMC10725121 DOI: 10.1177/02692155231197383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This scoping review aims to map the literature on goal-setting tools in adult rehabilitation, exploring their characteristics, target users and supporting evidence to inform practice and future research in this area. METHODS We completed a comprehensive search of four databases to identify relevant articles on tools for goal setting in rehabilitation. We followed Arkey and O'Malley's scoping review process to guide article selection, data extraction and data analysis. RESULTS We identified a total of 165 studies that reported on 55 different goal-setting tools, including tools for goal selection and goal documentation (n = 31), goal setting and intervention planning (n = 15), and for measuring the quality of the goal-setting process (n = 9). Over half of the tools were primarily designed for use in rehabilitation of physical disabilities (n = 32). Some tools fell under multiple sub-categories based on their characteristics as follows: 22 framework tools, 12 interview tools, 9 outcome measurement tools for goal achievement, 6 outcome measurement tools for goal quality and 25 documentation tools. The majority of goal-setting instruments targeted goals at the level of activity and participation (n = 51) and aimed to facilitate a client-centred or shared decision-making approach to rehabilitation planning (n = 46). CONCLUSIONS This study provides a comprehensive overview of existing goal-setting tools, highlighting their characteristics, target users and identified needs. These findings can enhance practitioners' awareness of the range of goal-setting tools available and can enable more effective utilization of these tools in clinical practice. Further research should investigate how clinicians can combine multiple tools to deliver goal setting.

Abstract
In the United States, over 2.5 million people with disabilities are recipients of supports through the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) program. Recent decades have seen a growing focus on providing HCBS in a person-centered manner thereby supporting outcomes that are both important for and to the person. HCBS outcome measurement, however, has not kept pace with advancements in person-centered thinking as it relates to providing supports to people with disabilities. The concept of person-centered outcome measurement has been inadequately defined and is frequently misunderstood including by those in the measurement field. The authors first operationally define person-centered measurement and establish its importance within the context of HCBS and the recent CMS's Final Settings Rule. The important role that person-centered measurement has to play in quality improvement efforts in this area is then explored. A discussion is subsequently provided as to the challenges that are faced in person-centered measurement specific to the disability field. In addition to further conceptualizing and defining this form of measurement, recommendations are provided for moving the field forward.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the relation between subjectively and objectively assessed cognitive and physical functioning among community-dwelling stroke survivors, and to examine the association of stroke severity with subjectively and objectively assessed cognitive and physical impairments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Secondary data analysis was conducted with 127 community-dwelling stroke survivors. For cognitive functioning, objective measures included the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery and the Executive Function Performance Test; subjective measures included the Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders Applied Cognition. Objective and subjective physical functioning was measured by the NIH Toolbox 2-Minute Walk Test and the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Physical Function, respectively. RESULTS A positive correlation was observed between subjective and objective physical functioning, whereas the correlation between subjective and objective cognitive functioning was nonsignificant. Stroke severity was associated with objective cognitive impairment and objective and subjective physical impairment, but not subjective cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS The lack of association between objective and subjective cognitive functioning challenges the conventional assumption that perceived functioning reflects actual performance. We recommend using both objective and subjective measures to accurately identify cognitive and physical impairment following stroke.Implications for RehabilitationSubjective cognitive functioning is not associated with objective cognitive functioning, suggesting that solely relying on stroke patients' reports is inadequate and may inaccurately estimate patients' actual deficits.Both objective and subjective measures should be used to accurately identify cognitive and physical impairment following stroke.Practitioners should be cognizant of stroke patients' behavioral signs associated with underlying cognitive problems that warrant further evaluation.

Associations among depression, demographic variables, and language impairments in chronic post-stroke aphasia. JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATION DISORDERS 2022; 100:106266. [PMID: 36150239 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcomdis.2022.106266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 08/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depression may influence treatment participation and outcomes of people with post-stroke aphasia, yet its prevalence and associated characteristics in aphasia are poorly understood. Using retrospective data from an overarching experimental study, we examined depressive symptoms and their relationship to demographic and language characteristics in people with chronic aphasia. As a secondary objective, we compared prevalence of depressive symptoms among the overarching study's included and excluded participants. METHODS We examined retrospective data from 121 individuals with chronic aphasia including depression scale scores, demographic information (sex, age, time post onset of stroke, education, race/ethnicity, and Veteran status), and scores on assessments of general and modality-specific language impairments. RESULTS Approximately 50% of participants reported symptoms indicative of depressive disorders: 23% indicative of major depression and 27% indicative of mild depression. Sex (males) and comparatively younger age emerged as statistically significant variables associated with depressive symptoms; naming ability was minimally associated with depressive symptoms. Time post onset of stroke, education level, race/ethnicity, Veteran status, and aphasia severity were not significantly associated with depressive symptoms. Depression-scale scores were significantly higher for individuals excluded from the overarching study compared to those who were included. CONCLUSIONS The rate of depressive disorders in this sample was higher than rates of depression reported in the general stroke literature. Participant sex, age, and naming ability emerged as factors associated with depressive symptoms, though these links appear complex, especially given variable reports from prior research. Importantly, depressive symptoms do not appear to diminish over time for individuals with chronic aphasia. Given these results and the relatively limited documentation of depression in aphasia literature, depression remains a pressing concern for aphasia research and routine clinical care.

Abstract
La afasia después de un daño cerebral y sus diferentes condiciones negativas derivadas, afectan a la calidad de vida (CdV) de la persona. El objetivo de este estudio es describir y analizar la literatura de los años comprendidos entre 2016 y 2020 para identificar y cuantificar aspectos relevantes de la CdV y su evaluación en personas con afasia (PWA). Para lo anterior, se consultaron tres bases de datos (PsycINFO, Medline y Psicodoc). Se incluyeron 38 estudios. Se codificaron y analizaron las características de los estudios y se evaluó la calidad de los trabajos siguiendo las pautas marcadas por la STROBE y la NIH. Los resultados muestran que la prueba de evaluación de CdV más utilizada fue la Stroke and Aphasia Quality of Life Scale-39 (SAQOL-39) (n= 19, 50.00%). En la mayoría de los estudios, independientemente de las pruebas de evaluación, las PWA presentan una baja CdV. Los estudios seleccionados presentan una calidad metodológica media-alta. Como conclusión cabe destacar que, además de limitar aspectos de la comunicación y el lenguaje, la afasia afecta negativamente a la CdV de forma global de la persona que la padece. El desarrollo de pruebas de evaluación de la CdV puede ayudar a los profesionales a planificar una intervención adecuada.

Abstract
PURPOSE Best practices in the field of aphasia rehabilitation increasingly acknowledge a whole-person approach that values interventions aimed at reducing impairments, while also recognizing the impact of aphasia on participation and quality of life. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), this study aimed to examine whether current clinical practices along levels of service provision reflect this whole-person, multifaceted approach. METHOD Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in the United States who provide intervention to people with aphasia across the continuum of care completed this cross-sectional online survey. Current outcome measurement and treatment practices were evaluated within the Living With Aphasia: Framework for Outcome Measurement via multiple-choice and open-text response questions. Data were analyzed descriptively and using ordinal logistic regression models to compare clinical practices along levels of service provision. RESULTS Data from 90 SLPs revealed that language and cognitive skills are assessed with equal consistency across clinical settings; however, functional communication, participation, and quality of life domains are prioritized in settings providing care to clients within the community. Psychological well-being is rarely assessed within clinical practice along most of the rehabilitation process and prioritized within the university clinic setting when clients are in the chronic stage of recovery. CONCLUSIONS Clinical practices related to a multifaceted approach to aphasia intervention are variable across levels of service provision. Further exploration of barriers and facilitators to multifaceted aphasia care along the domains of the CFIR is needed to provide an informed approach to implementing change.

World J Psychiatry 2022; 12:450-469. [PMID: 35433325 PMCID: PMC8968505 DOI: 10.5498/wjp.v12.i3.450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) have been insufficiently examined in persons with aphasia (PWA) because most previous studies exclude participants with language and communication disorders.
AIM To report a two-part study consisting of a literature review and an observational study on NPS in post-stroke aphasia.
METHODS Study 1 reviewed articles obtained from PubMed, PsycINFO, Google Scholar and Cochrane databases after cross-referencing key words of post-stroke aphasia to NPS and disorders. Study 2 examined language deficits and activities of daily living in 20 PWA (median age: 58, range: 28-65 years; 13 men) with the Western Aphasia Battery-Revised and the Barthel Index, respectively. Informants of these 20 PWA were proxy-evaluated with the Neuropsychiatric Inventory and domain-specific scales, including the Stroke Aphasia Depression Questionnaire-10 item version and the Starkstein Apathy Scale. In addition, an adapted version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was directly administered to the PWA themselves. This observational study is based on the baseline assessment of an intervention clinical trial (EudraCT: 2017-002858-36; ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04134416).
RESULTS The literature review revealed a broad spectrum of NPS in PWA, including depression, anxiety, apathy, agitation/aggression, eating and sleep disorders, psychosis, and hypomania/mania. These findings alert to the need for improving assessment and treatment approaches of NPS taking into consideration their frequent occurrence in PWA. Study 2 showed that the 20 participants had mild- to-moderate aphasia severity and were functionally independent. A wide range of comorbid NPS was found in the post-stroke aphasic population (median number of NPS: 5, range: 1-8). The majority of PWA (75%) had depressive symptoms, followed by agitation/aggression (70%), irritability (70%), anxiety (65%) and appetite/eating symptoms (65%). Half of them also presented symptoms of apathy, whereas euphoria and psychotic symptoms were rare (5%). Domain-specific scales revealed that 45% of participants had apathy and 30% were diagnosed with depression and anxiety.
CONCLUSION Concurrent NPS are frequent in the chronic period of post-stroke aphasia. Therefore, further research on reliable and valid assessment tools and treatment for this aphasic population is strongly warranted.

Abstract
Research on healthy aging commonly concerns problems related to loneliness and food intake. These are not independent aspects of health since eating, beyond its biological necessity, is a central part of social life. This scoping review aimed to map scientific articles on eating alone or together among community-living older people, and to identify relevant research gaps. Four databases were searched, 989 articles were identified and 98 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. In the first theme, eating alone or together are treated as central topics of interest, isolated from adjoining, broader concepts such as social participation. In the second, eating alone or together are one aspect of the findings, e.g., one of several risk factors for malnutrition. Findings confirm the significance of commensality in older peoples' life. We recommend future research designs allowing identification of causal relationships, using refined ways of measuring meals alone or together, and qualitative methods adding complexity.
