Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a special kind of rehabilitation offered to home-dwelling adults is effective with regards to functional ability health-related quality of life coping mental health and municipal costs
Detailed Description:
Health promotion and prevention of functional decline among home dwelling adults and immediate onset of rehabilitation can improve function and reduce or delay need for home-based assistance and institution placement In the coming years there will be a significant increase in number of persons in Norway that need interventions aiming at coping with everyday activities Therefore there is a call for new models for early intervention and rehabilitation in order to give service to a larger amount of home living people Reablement is a new and promising rehabilitation model which many Norwegian municipalities are implementing in order to meet current and future needs for municipal home-based services However very little research has been performed regarding the effectiveness of this intervention This study aims at assessing the effectiveness of reablement in terms of daily functioning health-related quality of life coping mental health and economic municipal costs
The study will be conducted in 44 municipalities in Norway It is a quasi-experimental intervention trial recruiting home-dwelling adults with an initial functional decline in daily activities The intervention is intensive multidisciplinary home-based rehabilitation given by home-trainers under supervision from an occupational therapist nurse or a physiotherapist The control intervention is standard home-based treatment and care
A total of approximately 750 participants will be recruited including approximately 100 participants the control group The participants will be assessed at baseline and at 10 weeks 6- and 12 months follow-up Primary outcomes will be participation activity and municipal expenditures Costs are generated by the working hours of the different professions Hence there will be a weekly registration of the working hours different health care professions spend in the private homes of the participants
Data analyses will be performed according to intention to treat Univariate analysis of covariance will be used to investigate differences between the groups from baseline to the end of intervention The working hour data is panel data and will be analyzed accordingly a random or a mixed effect regression model will be employed Also descriptive statistics and simpler tests will be carried out
