“…CBR is implemented through the combined efforts of people with disabilities, their families and communities, and relevant government and non-government health, education, vocational, social, and other services. CBR has been implemented worldwide, not only in developing countries, such as Indonesia ( 11 ), China ( 20 ), Vietnam ( 21 ), Uganda ( 22 ), and India ( 23 ), but also in developed countries, such as Israel ( 24 ) and Singapore ( 13 ).…”

“…It was originally established to give access to people with disability where there was no access to rehabilitation services in hospital. Many studies have reported on rehabilitation programmes for different health conditions, provided at CBRs, such as schizophrenia ( 11 ), stroke ( 12 ), spinal cord injury ( 13 ), and post knee arthroplasty patients ( 14 ).…”

Objective Describing rehabilitation services in a standardized way is a challenge. The International Classification of Service Organizations in Rehabilitation (ICSO-R) 2.0 was published for this purpose. The ICSO-R was criticized for being tested mainly in high-income countries, and because the testing in lower-income countries did not include community-based rehabilitation services. Therefore, this study was performed to describe community-based rehabilitation services by using ICSO-R 2.0. Methods The ICSO-R 2.0 was used to describe 8 community-based rehabilitation services located in 3 cities in 3 different provinces in Indonesia: 6 community-based rehabilitation services in Bandung, West Java; 1 in Tanah Datar, West Sumatra; and 1 in Gowa, South Sulawesi. Results All the community-based rehabilitation services were owned by the government, as a public body, and in the context of the community. The 6 community-based rehabilitation services in Bandung, West Java, are under the government city of Bandung, while the other 2, from Tanah Datar and Gowa, are integrated within primary healthcare centres. Social welfare supports all 6 community-based rehabilitation services in Bandung. The other 2 community-based rehabilitation services are supported by their respective primary healthcare centres. Conclusion The ICSO-R 2.0 is a feasible tool to describe rehabilitation services, including community-based rehabilitation. LAY ABSTRACT The International Classification of Service Organizations in Rehabilitation (ICSO-R) 2.0 was published as a framework to support describing rehabilitation service organizations. The process of development of the ICSO-R did not include Community-Based Rehabilitation Services. Therefore, to rectify this, ICSO-R 2.0 was used for this study. Eight community-based rehabilitation services were surveyed, located in 3 cities in Indonesia; namely Bandung, Tanah Datar, and Gowa. This study found that ICSO-R 2.0 can be used to describe rehabilitation services not only in hospitals, but also in the community.

“…A tendência de mudança da epidemiologia da lesão medular traumática diz respeito ao aumento gradual da idade média das pessoas, uma proporção maior de lesões relacionadas a quedas da própria altura e aumento das lesões cervicais e incompletas, especialmente entre os mais idosos (BÁRBARA-BATALLER et al, 2018;KUDO et al, 2019;MIRZAEVA et al, 2019;MITCHELL et al, 2020;SMITH et al, 2019). Estes estudos sugerem a necessidade de uma avaliação de risco multidimensional e intervenção multifatorial, especialmente para reduzir quedas e lesão medular em idosos.…”

“…Um programa de reabilitação vocacional interdisciplinar, em uma comunidade de Singapura, avaliou a independência funcional antes e após a reabilitação física utilizando a escala SCIM-III. Antes de iniciar o programa a pontuação total foi 55 e média maior no domínio respiração e esfíncteres, corroborando achados do presente estudo (KEE et al, 2020).…”

A lesão medular (LM) repercute altamente no nível de incapacidade física. Pessoas com LM que utilizam dispositivo auxiliar de mobilidade tendem a desenvolver maior independência funcional. O objetivo foi avaliar a correlação entre independência funcional em atividades de vida diária e a satisfação com o uso de tecnologia assistiva (cadeira de rodas) em pessoas com lesão medular. Trata-se de um estudo transversal analítico com abordagem quantitativa. A amostra foi de 146 participantes com lesão medular traumática com paraplegia e tetraplegia. Para coleta de dados foram utilizados um questionário sociodemográfico, e as escalas Spinal Cord Independence Measure-Self Reported Version (brSCIM-SR) e o Quebec User Evaluation of Satisfaction with Assistive Technology (QUEST.2.0) que permitiram a investigação. A média de idade foi 37,8 anos, com maioria do sexo masculino (82,9%), solteiros (52,7%), escolaridade média (53,4%), acidente de trânsito (50%), arma de fogo (22,6%). Houve predomínio de lesão completa (58,9%) e paraplegia(65,1%). Na brSCIM-SR a média geral foi de 55,3 (±15,8) no domínio do autocuidado de 14,6 (±5,3), respiração/esfíncter 26,4 (±7,4) e mobilidade de 14,3 (±5,5). Na satisfação com a tecnologia assistiva a pontuação total do QUEST 2.0 foi de 3,64 (±0,77), satisfação com o recurso 3,86 (±0,74) e a prestação de serviços 3,64(±0,77). Identificou-se bom desempenho na média da independência funcional. Além disso, altos níveis de satisfação com a tecnologia assistiva, de forma específica mais com o recurso do que com a prestação de serviços. Não foi encontrada correlação entre a independência funcional e a satisfação do uso de cadeira de rodas.

“…Some studies have described the use of the WHO-CBR strategy to design SCI services in the local contexts of Orissa, India; Muzaffarabad, Pakistan; and Singapore. 24,25 These studies focused on the implementation of a single component, either health or livelihood. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first study to use the WHO-CBR matrix for the assessment of services' contributions to fostering community participation for people with tSCI.…”

Purpose The aim of the study is to use the World Health Organization community-based rehabilitation matrix for understanding services’ contributions to foster community participation for people with traumatic spinal cord injury. Methods This study used a convergent mixed-methods design with a quantitative arm describing the frequency with which services contributed to 22 of the community-based rehabilitation–matrix elements and a qualitative arm involving document reviews and stakeholder interviews. Results were integrated following Onwuegbuzie and Teddlie’s method (i.e., quan + QUAL). Results Twenty of the 22 (91%) of the World Health Organization community-based rehabilitation elements were addressed by traumatic spinal cord injury services. Five types of services were identified. Integrated results showed that the strengths of traumatic spinal cord injury services were as follows: (1) comprehensiveness; (2) essential medical services publicly funded; (3) numerous social protections available; and (4) highly active community-based organizations. Identified opportunities to improve these services were as follows: (1) increase specificity for traumatic spinal cord injury and (2) increase communication and integration among services. Conclusions Services available for people with traumatic spinal cord injury in the province studied address most of the elements of the World Health Organization community-based rehabilitation matrix. However, lack of cohesion between services could create gaps that hinder community participation. Addressing these gaps could improve the quality of life and outcomes of people with traumatic spinal cord injury.
