Pushing and Pulling Evidence Into Practice: Implementing Best Practices in Upper Limb Movement Therapy after Acquired Brain Injury

获得性脑损伤(ABI)是澳大利亚成年人残疾的主要原因。ABI后，许多人无法使用他们的上肢(UL)来执行重要的日常任务。虽然有研究证据表明，针对UL的运动疗法将提高康复后能够使用UL的可能性，但许多治疗师目前没有为患者提供足够的UL运动疗法。这一实践差距将在本项目中得到解决。

Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is the leading cause of disability in adults in Australia. After ABI, many people are unable to use their upper limb (UL) to perform important, everyday tasks. While there is research evidence which has shown that movement therapy targeted at the UL will improve the likelihood of being able to use the UL after rehabilitation, many therapists do not currently provide sufficient UL movement therapy to patients. This practice gap will be addressed in this project.
