ACRM 90th ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2 12 – 16 NOVEMBER 2013 // CENTRAL FL ACRM WELCOME 90th Annual Conference

Welcome to the 90th Annual ACRM Conference, Progress in Rehabilitation Research ! In this momentous anniversary year, we have so much to celebrate and an outstanding program to share. PROGRESS IN

ACRM has experienced extraordinary growth over the last five years, REHABILITATION including an expanded diagnostic focus encompassing brain injury, spinal cord RESEARCH injury, stroke, neurodegenerative diseases and pain. This year, for the first time, Progress in Rehabilitation Research offers non-stop, interdisciplinary programming in each of these five diagnostic areas. Our heartfelt thanks go to the 2013 Program Committee for their hard work and commitment to delivering a high-caliber program of the very latest research in rehabilitation.

Whether you are new to ACRM, or a returning member, I hope that you will notice the vibrancy and friendliness of our interdisciplinary community. Since 2009, membership has exploded (965% growth) and ACRM community groups grew from two to 12 (600% growth). More than ever before, there is a place for you at ACRM. I encourage you to attend the ACRM Membership Meeting at the end of the conference day on Friday to learn more about ACRM, the leadership, and to witness the all-important passing of the presidential necklace from myself to incoming president, Sue Ann Sisto, PhD, FACRM.

Throughout the conference there will be meetings of ACRM interdisciplinary special interest groups (ISIGs) and networking groups that welcome new members and will give you the opportunity to get involved. These groups are truly the heart of ACRM and offer great opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange, global collaboration, and participation in meaningful projects advancing the field. Tamara Bushnik, PhD, FACRM Conference attendance has also sky-rocketed in the past five years by more than ACRM President 400 percent. Today, approximately 1,000 rehabilitation professionals from 27+ countries are in attendance.

The hub of the conference this year is the expanded ACRM Exposition. More than double the size of last year’s hall, it’s an extension of your educational experience — the place to see and hear about advances in rehabilitation technology, robotics, pharmacology and much more. The scientific poster display encircles the Exposition and refreshments will be served there during each break. Stop by ACRM Central and register for exciting prizes.

Finally, I would like to thank our many sponsors. Your generous support makes this conference possible and helps advance the ACRM mission to improve lives through interdisciplinary rehabilitation research.

Thank you for choosing ACRM. We hope your conference experience at Disney is simply MAGICAL!

Each year, at least 1 7. million Americans will incur a TBI, of which 275,000 will be severe enough to require hospitalization . For those hospitalized with TBI, approximately 52,000 will die as result of injury, and those who survive will have an elevated risk of long-term physical and neurological deficits, cognitive impairment,

disability, and reduced lifespan . The CDC has collaborated with partners in TBI research to further 1 CORE DAY understand the consequences of TBI throughout the life course and to better understand outcomes associated with TBI rehabilitation . This presentation will provide a snapshot of the CDCs research efforts on TBI .

Lofton, MD, Carolinas Rehabilitation, Charlotte, NC; Erin P . Rumble, MSW - Counselor, Carolinas Healthcare System, Charlotte, NC DIAGNOSIS: Diagnosis-independent or N/A FOCUS: Clinical practice (assessment, diagnosis, treatment, knowledge translation/EBP) Domestic violence is a modern day epidemic that affects an estimated 40–60% of disabled women . Those with disabilities have additional physical or cognitive barriers, making it difficult to leave an abusive relationship . Studies indicate that people with disabilities are often dependent on their abuser for financial, emotional, physical or medical support, and therefore remain in abusive relationships . Professional education on the topic remains inconsistent in CORE DAY 1 CORE DAY training and continuing education programs . By reviewing relevant literature, examining current research, discussing perceptions and attitudes, and presenting effective strategies for suspecting, screening and managing disabled victims of domestic violence, this course will empower participants to confidently develop a plan of care for these vulnerable and often overlooked patients .

This is a significant problem as studies have found alexithymia to be associated with self-regulation of emotions, recognition of others’ emotions, and the ability to experience and respond empathically to others .

This symposium will present findings from a recent study demonstrating the relationship 1 CORE DAY alexithymia has with aggressive behaviors, reduced perspective-taking tendencies, and negative interpretations of others’ behaviors . Our results suggest that treating alexithymia may be important for reducing negative socio-emotional behaviors . Future directions and clinical implications will be discussed .

Debate is centered on whether the factors responsible for reduced mortality would have a similar effect on morbidity . Some argue that the medical care improvements that saved lives were not accompanied by secondary prevention that would maintain healthy states or health care that would delay functional consequences of disease . Disability adjusted life years (DALYs) differ from other measures of adjusted life years because they link two major dimensions of health: disease and disability . There are many challenges to the promotion of healthy DALYs . Models of community fitness, physiological consequences of secondary conditions, challenges to transitioning from clinic to community fitness, assistive technologies to facilitate fitness, and personal examples of engagement in a fitness lifestyle will be presented and discussed .

Evidence-Based Management of Spasticity in Activity-Based Restorative Therapy: THURSDAY 14 NOV Bench to Bedside Science 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM FACULTY: Rebecca Martin, OTR/L, OTD, International Center for Spinal Cord Injury at Kennedy Krieger, Baltimore, MD; Cristina Sadowsky, MD, International Center for Spinal Cord Injury, Kennedy Krieger, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD; John W . McDonald, MD, PhD, International Center for Spinal Cord Injury, Kennedy Krieger, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD DIAGNOSIS: Brain Injury, Spinal Cord Injury, Neurodegenerative disorder (e g. ,. MS, Parkinson’s disease)

FOCUS: Clinical practice (assessment, diagnosis, treatment, knowledge translation/EBP) The presence of spasticity has a major impact on an individual’s functional skills, therapeutic progress,

quality of life, and perhaps regeneration and neurological recovery . Conventional interventions involve 1 CORE DAY the use of medications which can have a dampening effect on the nervous system . While this may reduce the effects of spasticity on function, it is also likely that these medications have a negative impact on the potential for regeneration and recovery . Drawing from current evidence and the outcomes from our research laboratories, we will demonstrate that spasticity reducing medications inhibit mechanisms for regeneration, including new cell birth, survival and maturation We will discuss multimodal alternatives to spasticity management using an activity-based approach . ABRT involves purposeful, repetitive activation of the nervous system above and below the injury level to optimize the system’s recovery while working to offset the rapid aging and chronic complications that occur as a consequence of neurologic injury and immobility . In addition to discussing therapeutic interventions, we will discuss the benefits of and alternatives to oral medications . The panel will discuss clinical rationale and decision making when treating spasticity . Finally, we will present outcomes from our clinical experience to show that patients improve with minimal medical spasticity management and that spasticity does not increase in response to ABRT interventions .

MS, Parkinson’s disease) FOCUS: Clinical practice (assessment, diagnosis, treatment, knowledge translation/EBP) The term “epilepsy” has been associated with negative connotations and psychosocial adjustment implications . Patients with epilepsy experience a variety of cognitive symptoms which render them vulnerable to accelerated pathological aging . The variety and severity of the psychosocial and cognitive symptoms are related to the severity of the disorder, and the ability to control seizure activity . Despite the neurodegenerative nature of the disorder, rehabilitation medicine has not taken an active role in the management of this condition . An international panel will present data on the effects of epilepsy on executive and memory performance, and the link between cognitive performance and quality of life . Psychosocial adjustment challenges of patients with chronic epilepsy will also be presented . Finally, recommendations for cognitive and neuropsychological rehabilitation will be made based on an evidence-based systematic review of the literature .

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the workplace is a leading cause of death and disability . While 2 CORE DAY workplace morbidity/mortality is higher in males, research shows that more than 40% of work-related brain injuries are sustained by women . To date, there is a paucity of research examining incidents and outcomes through a sex and gender lens . While many personal, occupational and environmental factors have been associated with work re-integration and secondary injury prevention, our team is focusing on less frequently investigated issues such as psychosocial status, chronic pain and sleep, and the provision of workplace supports and accommodations . This symposium will bring together scientists with expertise in occupational and rehabilitation science, sociology, occupational health and safety, and sleep medicine . We will begin with an introduction to TBI from a population-based perspective . The second presentation will focus on sex and gender differences in return to work following TBI . The third presentation will review the available evidence concerning sleep dysfunction post-TBI . We will conclude with a discussion of workplace accommodations for individuals with cognitive and psychosocial challenges .

Four studies address lifetime exposure to TBI in a range of populations and examine associations between indicators of lifetime history (e g. ,. worst injury, number of TBIs, age at first TBI), comorbidities, and disabilities . A study of adults provided population- weighted estimates of the prevalence of disability based on indicators of lifetime TBI exposure . A study on prisoners identified clusters based on different aspects of Registration Open lifetime history of TBI . The findings reinforced the importance of injury severity and 6:30 AM – 5:00 PM developmental stage at first TBI . Two other studies evaluated exposure to TBI prior to an Index injury (the injury that brought the person to the attention of the clinician Exposition Hall Open or researcher) . A study of persons presenting with mild TBI to four emergency 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM departments found that prior TBI was associated with worse functional outcomes, more post-concussive symptoms, and lower life satisfaction . Inter-injury interval and age at injury on recovery were important aspects of lifetime history . A study of persons with moderate-severe Index injuries found that behavioral issues were strongly associated with younger age of first TBI and more severe prior injuries . The findings have implications for clinical assessments of risks for poorer outcomes, as well as for research on disorders for which lifetime indicators of TBI may be important covariates .

Graham, PhD, DC, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX; Janet Prvu Bettger, ScD, FAHA, Duke University, Durham, NC; Kenneth J . Ottenbacher, PhD, OTR, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX DIAGNOSIS: Diagnosis-independent or NA FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology Several provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) extend providers’ accountability for patient wellbeing beyond the services provided and outcomes achieved during the inpatient stay . Older adults who require intensive post-acute care are most in need of well-coordinated care to manage their prolonged recovery . But they are also most vulnerable to disruptions in their care plan or care team as they transition from setting to setting and ultimately back to the community . Inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) provide the most intensive post-acute rehabilitative care . The assumption underlying many of the reform initiatives in the ACA is that shared accountability and resultant increased continuity lead to better patient experiences and improved outcomes . During this symposium we will (a) present the results from our analyses testing this assumption using Medicare hospital claims and IRF assessment files, and (b) discuss potential implications of the observed hospital-IRF referral patterns from both the patient and provider perspectives .

Campbell, CDC DIAGNOSIS: Brain Injury FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology In 2009, approximately 3 5. million patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) listed as primary or

secondary diagnosis were hospitalized or were treated and released from emergency departments, 2 CORE DAY outpatient departments, and office-based physicians’ offices . This estimate does not include active duty military service members and those who did not seek medical care; therefore, the true incidence of TBI in the US remains unknown . Because the health effects of TBI can be permanent, with varying outcomes for those who survive, it is crucial to understand the epidemiology of TBI and potential risk and burden for TBI survivors . This presentation will describe national data on trends in sports and recreation TBI, emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and rehabilitation . Trends will be described by age group, gender, payment type, discharge disposition, and care following injury . Outcome Prediction in Post-Traumatic Disorders of Consciousness: Is it Time to Revisit Prognostic Guidelines 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM FACULTY: Joseph T . Giacino, PhD, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA; Brian Edlow, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA; Yelena Guller, PhD, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Boston, MA DIAGNOSIS: Brain Injury FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology Individuals who sustain severe acquired brain injury often experience disorders of consciousness (DoC), including vegetative (VS) and minimally conscious states (MCS) . These conditions may be transient or permanent . Among those who experience prolonged (> 2 weeks) DoC, it is difficult to predict who will recover, and the extent of functional recovery that will eventually be attained . Current prognostic guidelines suggest that these conditions could be considered permanent by 12 months post-injury . However, a series of outcome studies over the past 8 years consistently show that approximately 20% of patients in VS or MCS for one year continue to improve significantly . A substantial minority go on to regain functional independence . Part I of this course will review the recent evidence that challenges existing prognostic guidelines . In Part II, we will discuss potential prognostic applications of advanced structural and functional neuroimaging techniques, including susceptibility weighted imaging, diffusion tensor imaging and tractography, resting state fMRI and stimulus-related fMRI activation paradigms . Part III will discuss the emerging role of multimodal assessment approaches in evaluating brain connectivity for diagnostic, prognostic and treatment planning purposes .

Knowledge of plasticity in the central nervous system combined with principles of motor control and motor learning have changed the state of rehabilitation . In addition, technologic advances allow for the implementation of this new knowledge in the clinic when translated effectively for clinicians and patients . The proposed session will review the current science that should be matched to current practice for gait recovery . A clinical practice guideline that utilizes technology for recovery across a continuum of care will be presented as a method of knowledge translation . The guideline uses a unique assessment of people with neurologic injury to place them into severity categories which guide intervention . Video case studies, with an emphasis on stroke and spinal cord injury, FRIDAY 15FRIDAY NOV will be utilized to show the transfer of knowledge to action .

CORE DAY 2 CORE DAY (e g. ,. MS, Parkinson’s disease), amputation FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology Evidence-based practice (EBP) provides the best means to incorporate research into rehabilitation care . One obstacle to EBP is clinicians’ uncertainty regarding the optimal instruments to monitor patients’ outcomes . This symposium will describe three EBP projects that engaged clinicians in a rehabilitation hospital, prosthetics clinics, and a professional association to promote outcome measurement . In a 24-bed inpatient rehabilitation unit, we worked with clinicians to implement as part of routine care the administration of patient-reported outcomes as computer adaptive tests . We will describe the respondent burden on patients and the staffing requirements . We worked with six prosthetic clinics to incorporate the Orthotics Prosthetics User Survey into routine practice, then consulted with them to develop quality improvement projects to address issues related to functional status and satisfaction . Finally, we will describe a collaborative project with a professional association to provide outcome instrument summaries that therapists use to monitor patients’ rehabilitation progress . These projects illustrate novel methods to help clinicians incorporate outcome measures into routine practice . We will highlight the facilitators and barriers encountered by clinicians in using outcome measures .

McAllister, MD, Dartmouth University, Houston, TX DIAGNOSIS: Brain Injury FOCUS: Clinical practice (assessment, diagnosis, treatment, knowledge translation/EBP) Post-concussive symptoms following mild TBI are nearly universal . These include alterations of consciousness, disturbances of attention, slow processing speed, impaired declarative memory, and executive dysfunction . When early symptoms are unrecognized, misunderstood, and/or inadequately addressed, early post-concussive symptoms may become chronic and engender secondary psychological health and psychosocial consequences . This session will provide participants with new and emerging perspectives on mild TBI . A heuristic with which to understand the influences of pre-injury, injury- related, and post-injury factors on post-concussive symptoms will be presented . The roles of context and process in the genesis of attention and memory impairments after TBI will be considered, and the long-term effects of repetitive sub-concussive impacts will be described . Factors that influence effort and symptom reporting after TBI will be identified and their implications for clinical and forensic practice discussed .

Ellaway, PhD, Division of Brain Sciences, Imperial College London, UK DIAGNOSIS: Spinal Cord Injury, Neurodegenerative disorder (e g. ,. MS, Parkinson’s disease) FOCUS: Neuroscience (e g. ,. neural regeneration/repair, motor control/learning, biomechanics) Activity-dependent plasticity is one of the central mechanisms contributing to the recovery of sensory and motor function after spinal cord injury (SCI) . In this symposium we will discuss evidence for plasticity at multiple sites in the central nervous system . We will describe new approaches that are being used to enhance plasticity and promote recovery of sensorimotor function after SCI, including noninvasive operant conditioning protocols to modify spinal reflex pathways, transcranial magnetic stimulation, peripheral nerve electrical stimulation, and pharmacological approaches targeting serotonergic receptors to modulate motoneuron excitability and sensory transmission . Overall, new methods for inducing and guiding plasticity in spinal and supraspinal pathways open novel possibilities for significantly improving neurorehabilitation after SCI, and thus enhancing functional recovery .

1) Disparity in Access to Healthcare among Individuals with Physical Disabilities: 2001-2010 8:00 AM – 8:15 AM NIDRR AART Fellow: Elham Mahmoudi, PhD, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI DIAGNOSIS: Other or N/A FOCUS: Health/disability policy, ethics, advocacy OBJECTIVE: This study examines disability-related disparities in access to healthcare and investigates the factors associated with reporting no access to care . RESULTS: We analyzed a total of 138,670 adults (with mild to severe physical disabilities=27,276; without any physical disability=111,404) . Our analysis indicated the odds of reporting not getting medical care, dental care, and prescription drugs are 39% (p < 0 001),. 51% (p < 0 001),. and 38% (p < 0 001). higher for individuals with physical Elham Mahmoudi, PhD disabilities, respectively . Furthermore, in comparison with Whites with disabilities, our data SATURDAY 16 NOV 16 SATURDAY showed that Hispanics with physical disabilities have an additional 37% (p < 0 015). higher odd of reporting inability to get prescription drugs . Our models of access indicated that being poor (p <0 001),. lacking health insurance coverage (p < 0 001),. being a smoker (P < 0 001),. residing in South (P < 0 007),. and being female (p < 0 001). also significantly increase the odds of reporting no access to care . Conclusion: There are large and significant disparities in access to healthcare between adults with and without physical disabilities .

2) Biopsychosocial Determinants of Patient-Reported Improvement in Chronic Diseases for Adults over 50 Years of Age CORE DAY 3 CORE DAY 8:15 AM – 8:30 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Chia-Chiang Wang, PhD, CRC, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL DIAGNOSIS: Arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart conditions, and lung diseases FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology OBJECTIVES: To examine and compare disease-specific biopsychosocial determinants that predict two-year follow-up of patient-reported improvements in chronic diseases for adults age 50 to 80 years . RESULTS: The five chronic disease groups shared some common predictors, but also had disease-specific biological or psychosocial predictors of chronic disease improvement . Age, race/ethnicity, and self-rated health were the common predictors of patient-reported Chia-Chiang Wang, PhD improvement across some groups . African Americans and Latinos were more likely to report improvements in diabetes, arthritis, lung diseases (only African American participants), and heart conditions (only Latino participants) as compared to Caucasian participants . In addition, male gender (cancer), body mass index, smoking (lung diseases), binge drinking (arthritis), number of hospitalization days (heart conditions and arthritis), perceived control in health, and life satisfaction (cancer) were disease-specific predictors . Conclusions: Disease-specific biopsychosocial predictors of patient-reported improvement in chronic diseases could direct the development of interventions for aging populations to prevent their future functional limitations and long-term disabilities .

3) Development and Evaluation of a Smart Cueing Kitchen for Individuals with Cognitive Impairments Brain Injury 8:30 AM – 8:45 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Harshal Mahajan, School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA DIAGNOSIS: Alzheimer’s Disease

FOCUS: Technology OBJECTIVE: To develop smart sensing and prompting technologies that will provide automatic context aware guidance to individuals with cognitive impairments while completing their everyday kitchen tasks and to evaluate usability and user preferences towards system components . Results: Design of the Smart Cueing Kitchen (SCK) was motivated by user needs such as: Assistance in remembering locations of recipe ingredients and keeping track of their Harshal Mahajan progress while preparing a recipe; users need to be guided before they realize they have failed and feel frustrated; guidance should be minimally distracting; users should be able to perceive their kitchen as a stress reducer rather than a stress producer . The context aware prompter software uses the information from a portable network of sensors in the kitchen for automatic recognition of user’s activities and adaptively guides users to complete the task at hand using various prompting strategies . The safety monitoring software ensures user’s safety during and after the use of kitchen appliances . For example, appliances such as the stove, oven, and water faucets are continuously monitored and can be automatically switched off by the kitchen software or remotely by SATURDAY 16 NOV 16 SATURDAY the user or family member using a cell phone application . The projected picture prompts were the most preferred . Participants were also most efficient at item retrieval when picture prompts were used and least efficient when guided by computer generated verbal instructions alone . Participants preferred multi modal cues and had strong personal inclinations towards colors of the visual cues and types of computer voices . A second round of ethnographic interviews that is currently being conducted will add further insights and be used to validate earlier findings . Another clinical protocol is currently being developed to evaluate the usability, reliability, and effectiveness of the automated guidance system in contrast to similar commercially available alternatives such as recipe apps on cell phones . This protocol is also aimed at evaluating the clinical utility of the SCK in improving task efficiency and independence .

CONCLUSIONS: SCK was built as a cognitive orthosis for people with cognitive 3 CORE DAY impairments to provide support for kitchen activities and take remedial actions to ensure user safety . The SCK software provides multiple customization options to fit the needs and personal preferences of individuals with cognitive impairments . In addition to being an automated cooking assistant and safety monitor the SCK system has promising future applications as a training tool during rehabilitation process . By keeping people with cognitive impairments active and safe in their home environments and hence away from nursing homes and hospitals, smart kitchen technologies may contribute towards reducing healthcare cost in the long term .

4) Time Course of Kinematic Improvements in Survivors of Stroke during Upper-Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation 8:45 AM – 9:00 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Crystal Massie, PhD, OTR, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD DIAGNOSIS: Stroke FOCUS: Neuroscience OBJECTIVE: Determine when improvements in unassisted reaching occur during robotic rehabilitation for chronic survivors of stroke . RESULTS: No group differences were observed . Improvement in percentage of targets hit was related to baseline FM scores (FM scores 15-20 had greatest gains) . The number of targets hit significantly increased and was retained after the 3rd visit on; movement time and peak velocity significantly improved and were retained after the 6th visit . Crystal Massie, PhD, Conclusions: Results inform intervention planning in that additional daily time on robot OTR did not improve unassisted reaching kinematics and most gains were achieved within two weeks . Further, response to planar robot therapy may depend on initial FM scores .

5) Employment Outcomes for People with Disabilities across Age and Disability Groups 9:00 AM – 9:15 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Valentina Lukyanova, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL Registration Open DIAGNOSIS: Other or N/A 7:00 AM – 3:00 PM FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology Objective: In general, older workers (50+) struggle to recover from job loss, as they may be perceived as having certain characteristics that may impact negatively the likelihood of obtaining employment, including poor health, resistance to change, or low trainability . Little is known how age is associated with employment outcomes for people with disabilities receiving Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) services . This abstract’s specific goals are to (1) compare employment outcomes of VR consumers with different types of disability as they age, and (2) identify the VR services that are predictors of successful employment in these groups . RESULTS: Results indicate that older [51 to 65] and middle-age consumers [36 to 50] were more likely to be employed compared to younger consumers [18 to 35] . The regression analysis found age-related variations in employment outcome by type of disability . Older and middle-age VR recipients who reported learning or sensory disability were significantly more likely to find jobs than younger recipients . Older consumers with chronic disability, however, were significantly less likely to be placed in jobs . There were no age differences in employment outcomes for consumers with mental or physical illness . SATURDAY 16 NOV 16 SATURDAY Valentina Lukyanova CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that people with less severe impairments had a better chance of finding jobs with age . We interpret these results in the context of the current job market that favors the skilled workers with more job experience .

6) Pulmonary Function Characteristics of Boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: One-Year Data from CINRG 9:15 AM – 9:30 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Bethany Lipa, MD, UC Davis Medical Center/Shriners Hospital for Children, Sacramento, CA DIAGNOSIS: Neuromuscular Disorder CORE DAY 3 CORE DAY FOCUS: Outcomes research/epidemiology OBJECTIVE: The lack of well-characterized outcome measures in both ambulatory and non-ambulatory individuals with DMD limits the ability to show effectiveness during therapeutic clinical trials . The objective of this study is to determine whether changes in pulmonary function over a one-year period would have adequate sensitivity to be used as an endpoint for clinical trials in patients with DMD . RESULTS: Over a 1-year period, there were significant increases in the FVC, FEV1, and PEFR in each age group for children . CONCLUSIONS: Pulmonary function testing reflects growth-associated increases in the absolute pulmonary capacity of younger boys with DMD as well as changes in the relative PFT performance when normalized using percent-predicted equations over a one-year period . These data suggest that percent predicted FVCs have the capacity to show change over time and will be useful outcome measures for clinical trials with DMD . function tests (PFTs) were performed as part of a CINRG longitudinal study that included 287 individuals with confirmed DMD (ages 6 -28 years) in 20 centers from 10 countries . PFTs included forced vital capacity (FVC) and percent-predicted FVC (%FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and %FEV1, peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) and %PEFR, maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and %MIP, maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) and %MEP, peak cough flow (PCF) and %PCF . Significance was accepted at p < 0 05. . Analysis was based on 3 age groups: 7-12, 13-18, and >19 .

7) The Impact of Medicaid Managed Care on Patient Outcomes and Satisfaction 9:30 AM – 9:45 AM NIDRR ARRT Fellow: Randall Owen, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL DIAGNOSIS: N/A FOCUS: Health/disability policy, ethics, advocacy OBJECTIVES: Managed care is becoming a common form of Medicaid service delivery in the United States . However, little is known about the experiences of people receiving Medicaid through an MCO, their perspectives on outcomes/health . Research questions include, (1) What impact has Medicaid Managed Care had on the health and function of Medicaid recipients and their access to services? (2) What impact has Medicaid Managed Care had on the satisfaction of Medicaid recipients with their healthcare? Results: The results of the survey did not show any significant differences in patient health Randall Owen function, levels of activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living, frequency of obtaining immediate care, or receipt of preventive services, medical services, specialty services, or medical equipment . In general, satisfaction with healthcare decreased . The question that asked about satisfaction with the overall healthcare was not quite significant (p= 089),. although more specific questions did show a reduction . Satisfaction with primary care physicians (p= 003). and satisfaction with specialist services (p= 001). both showed a significant decrease in satisfaction from the baseline to the first year of the managed care program . However, the survey did not show significant changes in other measures related to the primary care physician: travel times, wait times, ease of making an appointment, and SATURDAY 16 NOV 16 SATURDAY whether the PCP to the patient’s wishes into account all did not change . The same is true for measures related to specialist, except that travel times to specialists did significantly increase from the baseline to the first year of the program (p= 016). . When asked whether a recipient could see the same doctors after the change to managed care, 35% said they could still see all of them, 33% said they could still see some of them and 32% said they see completely new doctors . CONCLUSIONS: The findings show a complex relationship between satisfaction and healthcare services . While services did not show any changes from the baseline through the first year of the program, satisfaction did decrease on a number of measures . Patients do not always equate good medical practice with satisfaction . This implies the need for a more nuanced understanding of managed care in terms of process alongside outcomes . As the survey

showed, 32% had to seeing new doctors, which may have led to some of the dissatisfaction . 3 CORE DAY In addition, many respondents wrote in comments indicating not understanding MCO procedures . Better understanding of these issues will allow us to create and implement better policies that meet the needs of Medicaid recipients .

FOCUS: Other or N/A Approximately 50% of all people with MS will develop problems with cognition . Deficits may occur in memory, attention, information processing, executive function, visuospatial function and verbal fluency . Changes in cognitive function can dramatically alter a person’s function and quality of life, and therefore require early recognition, assessment, and treatment . Additionally, there is emerging evidence that some people with MS exhibit greater cognitive-motor dual tasks deficits during balance and gait activities when compared to persons without disability . Understanding cognitive dysfunction in MS, and having strategies to assess and address this dysfunction during rehabilitation, may improve the rehabilitation process and outcomes for people with MS .

Behrman, PhD, PT, FAPTA, University of Louisville, Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center, Louisville, KY; Shelley Trimble, PT, Frazier Rehabilitation Institute, Louisville, KY DIAGNOSIS: Spinal Cord Injury FOCUS: Other or N/A Locomotor training is widely used in the rehabilitation of people with incomplete spinal cord injury . As the majority of people who sustain an SCI are adults at the time of injury, this intervention has primarily been delivered in adult rehabilitation settings . However, children with SCI may also benefit from locomotor training, as evidenced by two case studies that have shown benefits for children . In order to deliver this intervention to children, however, additional considerations are warranted . Adaptations to equipment are needed to accommodate the small size and different body dimensions of children . Children with SCI are also at risk for unique medical and musculoskeletal conditions, including neuromuscular scoliosis and hip subluxation that require monitoring . The ability to accurately assess outcomes is important, and instruments that are used in locomotor training for adults may not be reliable or valid in children with SCI . This symposium will SATURDAY 16 NOV 16 SATURDAY describe development and implementation of a program of pediatric locomotor training that addresses these considerations to ensure safety and appropriately determine the outcomes on functional mobility .

Interdisciplinary Outpatient and Inpatient Pain Rehabilitation 8:30 AM – 10:00 AM FACULTY: Virgil Wittmer, PhD, Brooks Rehabilitation, Jacksonville, FL DIAGNOSIS: Chronic pain FOCUS: Clinical practice (assessment, diagnosis, treatment, knowledge translation/EBP) Chronic pain is one of the most expensive medical problems in the U S. . The traditional CORE DAY 3 CORE DAY medical model has been less than effective regarding long-term outcomes with regard to pain reduction, mood, and function . There is also increasing evidence that long-term use of opioid medications may result in a paradoxical increase of pain (opioid induced hyperalgesia) . There is need for a “reawakening” of the importance of interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation for treatment of chronic pain, given evidence-based research and current guidelines . The rehabilitation model, which is effective for treatment of TBI, SCI, and amputation, also has excellent short-term and long-term outcomes for patients who suffer from chronic pain .
