DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Old Dominion University's College of Health Sciences, School of Physical Therapy, proposes to host a national conference titled "Collaborative Practice and Research to Improve Functional Outcomes for Amputees," to be held in Norfolk, Virginia April 11-12, 2008. The conference will bring together the core disciplines involved in the treatment of people with lower limb amputations, vascular and orthopedic surgeons, prosthetists and physical therapists, and rehabilitation experts from the military to 1) share current evidence based best practice guidelines across disciplines, 2) identify barriers to collaborative practice and research and 3) develop a collaborative research agenda. The conference is expected to attract 200 registrants and will address substantive issues in surgical procedures, prosthetic fabrication, and physical rehabilitation. Didactic instruction and experiential group exercises will be used to foster adoption of a collaborative practice and research model to improve functional outcomes for people with lower limb amputations. The experiential group exercises called, Collaborative Learning Modules, will be interactive, case based, small group sessions, designed to train participants in the skills and knowledge needed to practice collaboratively. Post-conference evaluation activities will assess whether conference participants are more likely to 1) implement a collaborative practice model into their clinical activities 2) adopt the use of well established measures of functional outcomes in their practice and 3) support a collaborative research agenda. Outcomes of the conference will be disseminated through workshops at national and international professional organizations, publications in peer reviewed journals and a final report detailing conference findings. This conference supports the AHRQ agenda of developing partnerships for improving the quality of heath care services for populations with disabilities and in capacity building for health services research.

描述（由申请人提供）：老道明大学健康科学学院物理治疗学院提议举办一场名为“协作实践和研究以改善截肢者的功能结果”的全国会议，会议将于2008年4月11日至12日在弗吉尼亚州诺福克举行。会议将汇集涉及下肢截肢患者治疗的核心学科，血管和整形外科医生，义肢学家和物理治疗师，以及来自军队的康复专家，以1)分享当前基于证据的跨学科最佳实践指南，2)确定合作实践和研究的障碍，3)制定合作研究议程。会议预计将吸引200名注册者，并将讨论外科手术、假体制造和物理康复方面的实质性问题。教学指导和体验式小组练习将用于促进采用协作实践和研究模式，以改善下肢截肢患者的功能结果。被称为协作学习模块的体验式小组练习将是互动的、基于案例的、小组会议，旨在培训参与者协作练习所需的技能和知识。会后评估活动将评估会议参与者是否更有可能：1)在临床活动中实施合作实践模式；2)在实践中采用完善的功能结果测量方法；3)支持合作研究议程。会议的成果将通过国家和国际专业组织的讲习班、同行评议期刊的出版物和一份详细说明会议结果的最后报告来传播。本次会议支持人权理事会关于发展伙伴关系以提高残疾人保健服务质量和保健服务研究能力建设的议程。
