The journal publishes studies that assess and validate rehabilitation models, ensuring they align with established health classifications and frameworks, such as the WHO's International Classification of Function. - Feasibility and Acceptability Studies:
A strong focus is placed on studies that evaluate the feasibility, safety, and acceptability of new interventions and platforms in rehabilitation settings.
Trending and Emerging
- Tele-Rehabilitation and Remote Services:
There is a growing trend towards exploring the feasibility and effectiveness of tele-rehabilitation services, particularly in response to the needs of patients with spinal cord injuries and brain injuries. - Use of Digital Health Tools:
The rise of digital health tools, including eHealth platforms and mobile applications, is increasingly being investigated for their potential to enhance pre-surgical education and rehabilitation outcomes. - Integration of Biomarkers and Physical Functioning:
Research exploring the relationship between biomarkers and physical functioning is emerging, particularly in the context of cancer rehabilitation, which may lead to more personalized rehabilitation strategies. - Human Motion Analysis Technologies:
The application of advanced technologies, such as computer vision for motion analysis, is becoming a key focus area, promising to enhance assessment techniques in rehabilitation. - Qualitative Research on Patient Experiences:
There is an increasing emphasis on qualitative studies that capture patient and caregiver perspectives, ensuring that rehabilitation practices are aligned with the needs and preferences of those directly affected.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Rehabilitation Practices:
There is a noticeable decrease in research focusing on traditional rehabilitation methods, possibly due to the shift towards more innovative and technology-driven approaches. - Generalized Rehabilitation Models:
Research centered on broad or generalized models of rehabilitation has waned, as there is now a preference for more specific, condition-focused studies that address unique patient needs. - In-person Rehabilitation Studies:
The emphasis on in-person rehabilitation studies has diminished, likely as a result of the increasing acceptance and implementation of tele-rehabilitation methodologies.
