Inpatient and Outpatient Rehabilitation services at Children's of Alabama are provided by professionals who recognize the uniqueness of each child and support the accomplishments of mutually established goals. The child's abilities, rather than disabilities, are emphasized. Further, the Rehabilitation Team believes the involvement of child and family in goal setting is essential for success. 

The Rehabilitation Team includes the following professionals:

Physician - The physician specializes in pediatric Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R). The physician's primary responsibility is for the medical care of the child. 

Nurse Clinician/Practitioner - The nurse clinician/practitioner with the Rehabilitation Medicine team is available to patients and families to answer questions regarding the child's hospitalization and plan of care. He or she also assists with patient and family education and discharge planning. The practitioner often discusses patient progress and advocates for items needed after hospitalization with insurance companies, case managers and school officials.

Occupational Therapist - The Occupational Therapist, through evaluation and treatment, provides patients with an opportunity to reach their maximum level of physical and psychosocial function so that they can live independently. Occupational Therapists teach patients how to perform activities of daily living (such as dressing, bathing, feeding and personal hygiene). Exercise programs are developed to Improve muscle strength and endurance of the upper extremities and trunk musculature. The OT may conduct evaluations to help the family make the home physically more accessible and provide adaptive equipment recommendations when indicated to maximize the patient's level of function in the home.

Physical Therapist - Physical Therapy services are aimed at helping patients overcome difficulties with movement caused by injury or disease so that they can more fully participate in life's activities. The Physical Therapist evaluates the patient and develops and carries out a treatment plan to Improve and restore mobility, strength, flexibility, endurance, balance and coordination. The PT will teach the patient and family how to move safely and efficiently utilizing adapted equipment and/or devices when needed. The PT may also recommend and assist with acquisition of appropriate assistive mobility devices for home use prior to discharge.

Speech Language Pathologist - The Speech-Language Pathologist will be involved when there is difficulty with communication or cognition. He or she will help Improve language skills, including comprehension of what your child hears and read, as well as how to express oneself with words and written language. Assistance and suggestions will be given to help speech clarity if the child's speech is difficult to understand. Cognitive areas may also be addressed in therapy, such as concentration, orientation, memory, problem-solving and organizational skills. The speech-language pathologist also works as part of a team to evaluate swallowing difficulties and ensure that your child can swallow safely and efficiently. 

Therapeutic Recreation Therapist – The Therapeutic Recreation Specialist provides patients with opportunities that will help them become more socially involved with others. Through participation in therapeutic recreation programs, patients will develop and use their physical and intellectual abilities as well as learn new skills and/or modify old ones. When appropriate, patients attend community reentry outings which allow them to practice new skills before they return home. Taking time for recreation is an important part of good mental health. 

Unit Nurse - The nurses, along with other team members, provide 24-hour care to children. They assess each child's health status every shift and develop an appropriate plan of care. Any abnormal or unexpected findings are reported to the physician. Rehabilitation nurses assist with the education and training of the patient and family members to safely perform all prescribed patient care activities, such as medication administration, self-care tasks, including bowel/bladder programs and maintenance of healthy skin. The nurses, along with members of the rehabilitation team, work together so that the transition from hospital to home can be accomplished smoothly. 

Pastoral Care - The chaplain provides support to patients and families and assesses resilience factors. The chaplain encourages patients and families to identify, recognize and use spiritual resources available for living with hope in their present situation.

Pediatric Neuropsychologist - The neuropsychologist evaluates neuropsychological functioning including cognition, behavior, personality and coping skills. He or she provides children, youth and their families with recommendations designed to enhance independent functioning and overall well-being. The neuropsychologist also serves as a consultant to other members of the Rehabilitation Team, families, schools, mental health professionals, physicians and attorneys. 

Counselor - A counselor typically sees all patients on the rehabilitation service and their family members. Individual counseling helps each family member identify, understand and resolve personal and relationship difficulties. Family counseling helps a family work together more effectively and supports the growth and development of all its members. Counselors also provide coping techniques to families and patients to help reduce and manage stress and anxiety.

Registered Dietitian - The dietitian plays an integral role in the care of the child. A thorough nutritional assessment is conducted upon admission to determine each child's unique needs. The dietitian monitors each child's nutritional status, ensures nutritional needs are met and assists in choosing a healthy lifetime diet. 

Respiratory Therapist - A respiratory therapist is available to assess the breathing status of children. Treatment is provided by the respiratory staff as deemed necessary by the medical staff. Respiratory therapists provide the family and the child with education regarding respiratory needs.

Social Worker - The social worker serves as a patient and family advocate and ensures that the family has input into the patient's treatment program. The social worker keeps the family informed of the patient's process and sets up family conferences and teaching sessions as needed. Assistance in understanding financial resources, community services and follow-up issues will also be provided. The social worker assists the patient and family in their discharge planning by making appropriate community referrals and helping to obtain special equipment. 

Teacher - The teacher will discuss the spectrum of services available to your child through your local school system. He or she initiates contact with your child's school to let administration know what services and supports may be needed upon discharge. When appropriate, the teacher will request and assist your child with his or her school assignments while he or she is hospitalized. The teacher also provides assistance in the transition from the hospital setting by arranging homebound school services, participating in IEP/504 meetings and/or assisting with the school re-entry program.

Every year, millions of people suffer from musculoskeletal injuries, and the healing process is typically lengthy and arduous with patients usually undergoing therapy as they gradually regain muscle strength when the injuries heal.

A variety of tasks and exercises are used by medical experts to evaluate a patient's progress. However, because these exercises are dynamic, acquiring a detailed image of real-time muscle activity is particularly difficult.

Parag Chitnis of George Mason University led a team that developed a wearable ultrasound system that can produce clinically relevant information about muscle function during dynamic physical activity. He will present his work at the International Convention Centre Sydney.

Many medical technologies can give doctors a window into the inner workings of a patient's body, but few can be used while that patient is moving. A wearable ultrasound monitor can move with the patient and provide an unprecedented level of insight into body dynamics.

"For instance, when an individual is performing a specific exercise for rehabilitation, our devices can be used to ensure that the target muscle is actually being activated and used correctly," said Chitnis. "Other applications include providing athletes with insights into their physical fitness and performance, assessing and guiding recovery of motor function in stroke patients, and assessing balance and stability in elderly populations during routine everyday tasks."

Designing a wearable ultrasound device took much more than simply strapping an existing ultrasound monitor to a patient. Chitnis and his team reinvented ultrasound technology nearly from scratch to produce the results they needed.

"We had to completely change the paradigm of ultrasound imaging," said Chitnis. "Traditionally, ultrasound systems transmit short-duration pulses, and the echo signals are used to make clinically useful images. Our systems use a patented approach that relies on transmission of long-duration chirps, which allows us to perform ultrasound sensing using the same components one might find in their car radio."

This modified approach allowed the team to design a simpler, cheaper system that could be miniaturized and powered by batteries. This let them design an ultrasound monitor with a small, portable form factor that could be attached to a patient.

Soon, Chitnis hopes to further Improve his device and develop software tools to more quickly interpret and analyze ultrasound signals.

Study reveals spatial neglect occurs after brain injury as well as stroke

A study conducted by Kessler Foundation has reported a notable incidence of spatial neglect among individuals undergoing rehabilitation for traumatic brain injury (TBI). The article, "Spatial neglect not only occurs after stroke, but also after traumatic brain injury," is published in the Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine. The authors are Peii Chen, Ph.D., of Kessler Foundation and Kimberly Hreha, EdD, OTR/L, of Duke University.

The findings have important implications for the of individuals with TBI, who have been understudied compared to stroke survivors. "We found that spatial neglect affects a substantial percentage of people with TBI," said Dr. Chen, senior research scientist in the Center for Stroke Rehabilitation Research at the Foundation.

Spatial neglect is more likely to occur with right brain damage, with an incidence of 40% to 45% compared to 19% to 23% for left brain damage after stroke, according to previously published Foundation studies. This condition manifests as a failure to respond to stimuli on the side opposite the injury and difficulty in initiating or completing movements toward that side. Spatial neglect can lead to prolonged disability after by impairing daily functions and reducing the effectiveness of rehabilitation therapies.

This study involved an implementation project across 16 U.S. rehabilitation hospitals, in which were trained to use the Kessler Foundation Neglect Assessment Process (KF-NAP) to assess spatial neglect in individuals with neurological disorders. This standardized method incorporates the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS) to measure impairment and categorize the severity of neglect. In total, 4,454 individuals were assessed, with 3,645 (82%) having had a stroke and 266 (6%) with TBI. The overall prevalence of spatial neglect was found to be 58% post stroke and 38% after TBI.

"It is clear from this study that neglect screening is warranted in TBI rehabilitation as well as in rehabilitation programs," Dr. Chen emphasized. "By extending timely treatment for spatial neglect to the population with TBI, we may Improve their rehabilitation outcomes, optimize their recovery, and lessen the burdens of caregivers."

UNStudio, in collaboration with FlySolo, has designed the FlySolo Rehabilitation Medical Centre in Beijing, China.

FlySolo Rehabilitation Medical Centre provides precise early intervention services for children and adolescents aged 0-13 years old.

Through the rehabilitation technology cooperation with Boston Children's Hospital of Harvard University, the clinic provides early prevention, screening and diagnosis of children-related diseases.

In addition, the FlySolo Rehabilitation Medical Centre offers professional ability assessment, rehabilitation treatment, family guidance and transition support based on their special needs, using a variety of integrated rehabilitation medical services with disciplinary advantages.

UNStudio teamed up with the FlySolo medical expert team to discuss in depth the importance of flexible space planning for carrying out different rehabilitation treatment activities.

"Inspiring children and their families to achieve extraordinary selves is at the core of FlySolo design," said FlySolo. "We respect and protect every child's inner desire to play, explore and discover, inspire children's desire to explore through space design and encourage children to interact with the outside world."
