Introduction: The Measures Associated to PrognoStic (MAPS) tool is a standardized questionnaire that integrates validated prognostic tools to detect the presence of biopsychosocial prognostic factors in patients consulting for musculoskeletal disorders. Purpose: The objectives were to assess the: 1) feasibility of implementation of the MAPS tool, 2) clinicians' acceptability of the dashboard, and 3) patients' acceptability of the MAPS tool. Methods: Twenty physiotherapists and two occupational therapists from seven outpatient musculoskeletal clinics were recruited to implement the MAPS tool during a 3-month timeframe, where new patients completed the questionnaire upon initial assessment. The results were presented to the clinicians via a dashboard. Surveys and semi-structured interviews were conducted to measure feasibility and acceptability. Results: Six out of 11 feasibility criteria (55%) and 21 out of 24 acceptability criteria (88%) reached the a priori threshold for success. The interviews allowed us to identify three main themes to facilitate implementation: 1) limiting the burden, 2) ensuring patients' understanding of the tool's purpose, and 3) integrating the dashboard as a clinical information tool. Conclusion: Our quantitative and qualitative results support the feasibility of implementation and acceptability of the MAPS tool pending minor adjustments. Depicting the patients' prognostic profile has the potential to help clinicians optimize their interventions for patients presenting with musculoskeletal disorders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: Work‐related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMD) are the most common causes of disability worldwide and are associated with significant use of healthcare. One way to optimize the clinical outcomes of injured workers receiving rehabilitation is to identify and address individual prognostic factors (PF), which can facilitate the personalization of the treatment plan. As there is no pragmatic and systematic method to collect prognostic‐related data, the purpose of the study was to develop and assess the acceptability of a set of questionnaires to establish the "prognostic profile" of workers with WRMD. Methods: We utilized a multistep process to inform the acceptability of the Measures Associated to PrognoStic (MAPS) questionnaire. During STEP‐1, a preliminary version of the was developed through a literature search followed by an expert consensus including a patient‐advisor. During STEP‐2, future users (rehabilitation professionals, healthcare administrators and compensation officers) were consulted through an online survey and were asked to rate the relevance of each content item; items that obtained ≥80% of "totally agree" answers were included. They were also asked to prioritize PF according to their usefulness for clinical decision‐making, as well as perceived efficacy to enhance the treatment plan. Results: The questionnaire was developed with three categories: the outcome predicted, the unique PF, and prognostic tools. Personal PF (i.e.: coping strategies, fear‐avoidance beliefs), pain related PF (i.e.: pain intensity/severity, duration of pain), and work‐related PF (i.e.: work physical demands, work accommodations) were identified to be totally relevant and included in the questionnaire. 84% of the respondents agreed that their patients could complete the MAPS questionnaire in their clinical setting, while 75% totally agreed that the questionnaire is useful to personalize rehabilitation interventions. Conclusion: The MAPS questionnaire was deemed acceptable to establish the "prognostic profile" of injured workers and help the clinicians in the treatment decision‐making process.

- Abstract
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a pathologic condition in which the painful experience is disproportionate in time and intensity in comparison with the inciting event. At present, the pathophysiology of CRPS is not well understood. Several studies have indicated that cortical reorganization plays a role in the persistence of the symptoms. A new promising approach, graded motor imagery (GMI), seems to be effective, but there are limited data for the CRPS-1 upper extremity population. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of a modified GMI (mGMI) protocol based on the work of Moseley to reduce pain and enhance functional capacities for a population with nonchronic CRPS-1 of the upper extremity. The following outcome measures were used to assess the clinical effectiveness: pain (short form of the McGill Pain Questionnaire), grip force (Martin vigorimeter), perception of upper extremity function (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire), and patient's global impression of change. All outcomes at T[subscript 4] were compared with the baseline data (T[subscript 0]) using the Mann-Whitney test and the [chi][squared] test (nonparametric tests). Seven patients were recruited for the study. At the end of the mGMI (T[subscript 4]), we obtained significant results for the decrease in the pain experienced in the last 7 days (visual analog scale; P=0.046), improvement in the affected extremity grip force (P=0.042), and the patient's global impression of change (P=0.015). However, the data of the perception of upper extremity function (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire) were not clinically or statistically significant. Our results indicate that this mGMI protocol seems to be a promising therapeutic modality to reduce pain. However, more investigations are needed to determine whether mGMI has a significant impact on upper extremity function.

- Abstract
Introduction : Pour répondre à des besoins psycho-sociaux non comblés, il n’est pas rare que les aînés demeurant dans la communauté se tournent vers les animaux de compagnie. Toutefois, prendre soin d’un animal de compagnie peut parfois comporter des risques pour l’aîné et l’animal, surtout si les exigences liées à cette occupation excèdent les capacités du propriétaire vieillissant. Par leurs compétences en matière d’analyse d’activité, les ergothérapeutes sont des professionnels de la santé qui peuvent considérer cette occupation et l’adapter aux capacités des aînés. Objectifs et méthodologie: Cette étude de cas qualitative vise à mieux comprendre comment l’interaction entre les bienfaits et les défis de prendre soin d’un animal de compagnie influence le rendement et l’engagement dans les activités de la vie courante du propriétaire aîné qui en prend soin. Des entrevues ont été menées auprès d’une aînée vivant dans la communauté avec son animal de compagnie et de son ergothérapeute du Soutien À Domicile (SAD). Deux évaluateurs indépendants ont réalisé une analyse thématique déductive des verbatims. La synthèse des résultats a été validée auprès des participantes. Résultats : Les résultats de l’étude confirment certains des bienfaits et défis recensés dans la littérature. En effet, pour la participante à cette étude, prendre soin d’un animal de compagnie 1) est une occupation importante; 2) lui permet de se sentir moins seule et influence positivement ses humeurs ; 3) pourrait l’exposer à des risques potentiels de chutes dans certaines situations du quotidien ; 4) représentent des coûts financiers à considérer. De plus, prendre soin de l’animal pourrait motiver la réalisation des activités de la vie courante comme prendre soin de soi, sortir dans la communauté et entrer en relation avec autrui. Enfin, la relation entre certains intervenants (moins à l’aise avec les animaux) et l’animal de compagnie est apparue comme un nouvel élément à considérer. Conclusion : Cett, Introduction: It is not uncommon for community-dwelling older adults to turn to pets to meet unmet psycho-social needs. However, taking care of a pet can sometimes present some challenges as well as risks for both the older adult and the pet, especially if the demands of the occupation exceed the aging owner’s capacities. Because of their ability to analyze occupations, occupational therapists are health care professionals who can address this occupation and determine if it is adapted to the pet’s owner. Aims and methods: This qualitative case study aims to better understand how the interaction between the benefits and challenges of taking care caring of a pet influences the performance and engagement in activities of daily living of the elderly owners. Interviews were conducted with a communitydwelling older adult living with her pet, as well as her home support occupational therapist. Two independent evaluators conducted a thematic analysis of the verbatims. A synthesis of the results was validated with the participants. Results: The results of the study confirm some benefits and challenges identified in the literature, namely that caring of a pet 1) could be an important occupation for the older adult ; 2) could help the older adult feel less alone and have a positive influence on their moods ; 3) may expose the older adult to potential risks (e.g. falls) during some situations of everyday life ; 4) includes financial costs to consider for the older adult. Furthermore, taking caring of a pet is an impetus for the older adult to carry out everyday activities such as taking care of oneself, going out in the community and relating to others. Finally, the relationship between some health care professionals (less comfortable with animals) has emerged as a new element to be considered. Conclusion: This case study demonstrated the importance of the occupation being adapted to the abilities of the aging pet owner. Despite its methodological limitations, this n

- Abstract
Introduction : La fibromyalgie (FM) est un syndrome de douleur chronique primaire comprenant plusieurs symptômes comme de la fatigue et des troubles du sommeil. Plusieurs études suggèrent que la FM affecte la réalisation des occupations. Certaines personnes arrivent à s’adapter à l’expérience de la FM alors que pour d’autres, il est plus difficile de maintenir une routine satisfaisante. Le but de cette étude est de comprendre le processus d’adaptation occupationnelle des personnes atteintes de la FM. Méthode : Une revue systématique de la littérature avec synthèse thématique d’articles qualitatifs a été réalisée selon la méthode de Thomas et Harden dans les articles publiés avant février 2020. La recherche a été effectuée dans les bases de données AMHED, CINAHL, MedLine, OT Seeker, OTD Base et PsycInfo à l’aide d’une stratégie de recherche comprenant les mots-clés occupation et FM. Les articles en anglais ou en français abordant des composantes de l’adaptation occupationnelle ont été inclus. Les articles documentant les effets d’une intervention ou présentant plusieurs conditions non distinguées dans les résultats ont été exclus. Deux étudiants-chercheurs ont évalué indépendamment la qualité des articles sélectionnés à l’aide de la liste du Critical Appraisal Skills Programme. Puis, une synthèse thématique a été réalisée par l’étudiante responsable du projet à l’aide du Modèle de l’Occupation Humaine. Résultats : Un total de 555 articles a été identifié, puis 333 articles ont été évalués suite au retrait des doublons. Après l’évaluation du titre et des résumés de ces articles, 44 articles ont été lus intégralement. Douze articles qualitatifs ont finalement été inclus dans l’étude. La synthèse révèle que l’environnement social est très important dans le processus d’adaptation occupationnelle, particulièrement le soutien des proches. Les enjeux identitaires sont également cruciaux, car une redéfinition de l’identité est souvent nécessaire. La compétence occupationnell, Introduction: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a primary chronic pain syndrome with several symptoms such as fatigue and sleep disturbances. Several studies suggest that FM affects the participation in various occupations. Some people can adapt to the FM experience while for others it is more difficult to maintain a routine. The purpose of this study is to understand the process of occupational adaptation of people with FM. Methods: A systematic review of qualitative research was performed using the method of Thomas and Harden for articles published before February 2020. The databases AMHED, CINAHL, MedLine, OT Seeker, OTD Base and PsycInfo were searched using a search strategy that included the keywords occupation and FM. Articles in English or French addressing components of occupational adaptation were included. Articles documenting the effects of an intervention or presenting several conditions not distinguished in the results were excluded. Two students independently assessed the quality of the selected articles with the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme checklist. A thematic synthesis was then conducted by the student in charge of the project using the Model of Human Occupation. Results: A total of 555 articles were identified and 333 of them were evaluated following the removal of duplicates. After evaluation of the titles and summaries of these articles, 44 articles were read. Twelve qualitative articles were finally included in the study. The synthesis reveals that the social environment is very important in the process of occupational adaptation, particularly the support of relatives. Identity issues are also crucial, and some people must redefine their identity. Occupational competence is greatly affected by FM experience due to the difficulty of performing in some activities. Occupational adaptation is an issue for some individuals but maintaining a routine and integrating management strategies act as facilitators. Conclusion: Support from the social environment s

- Abstract
BACKGROUND: The efficacy of graded motor imagery (GMI) for the management of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is supported by evidence, but its treatment effect remains generally modest. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been advocated as an adjunct intervention to enhance the effect of motor imagery approaches in pain populations. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of GMI+active tDCS compared to the GMI+sham tDCS in the treatment of CRPS type I. METHODS: 22 patients (n=11/group) were randomly assigned to the experimental (GMI+tDCS) or placebo (GMI+sham tDCS) group. GMI treatments lasted 6 weeks; anodal tDCS was applied over the motor cortex for 5 consecutive days during the first 2 weeks and once a week thereafter. Changes in pain perception, quality of life, kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, anxiety and mood were monitored after 6 weeks of treatment (T1) and 1-month post treatment (T2). RESULTS: GMI+tDCS induced no statistically significant reduction in pain compared to GMI+sham tDCS. Although we observed significant group differences in kinesiophobia (P=0.012), pain catastrophizing (P=0.049) and anxiety (P=0.046) at T1, these improvements were not maintained at T2 and did not reached a clinically significant difference. DISCUSSION: We found no added value of tDCS combined with GMI treatments for reducing pain in patients with chronic CRPS. However, given that GMI+sham tDCS induced no significant change, further studies comparing GMI+tDCS and tDCS alone are needed to further document tDCS's effect in CRPS.
