Evaluate effectiveness of peer interventions on self-efficacy, unplanned hospital readmissions, and quality of life for patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) undergoing inpatient rehabilitation.
Interrupted time-series analysis (ITSA) examined effects of peer interventions on unplanned readmissions. Intervention variables added to ITSA regression examined relationships with exposure to peer interventions. Heterogeneity of treatment effects (HTE) analysis examined differences in intervention effectiveness for patients with quadriplegia and paraplegia.
Rehabilitation hospital specializing in SCI and brain injury.
SCI inpatients ( = 1117) admitted for rehabilitation whose discharge location was home (77% male, 71% Caucasian, mean age 38.2 (SD 16.8)). A subsample of 799 patients participated in secondary analyses examining relationship between peer interventions, readmissions, changes in patient-reported outcomes, and HTE.
One-to-one mentoring and participation in peer-led self-management classes.
Unplanned readmissions, general self-efficacy (GSE), and depressive symptoms 30, 90, and 180 days post discharge; satisfaction with life at 180 days.
After implementing the peer interventions, we observed a significant decrease in both level and slope of number of patients readmitted, and level only of unplanned hospital days 30-days post-discharge. Reduction in the number of patients and unplanned hospital days was associated with number of peer visits but not peer-led education classes attended. Higher self-efficacy (GSE) was associated with greater exposure to peer mentoring, and a significant relationship between improvement in GSE and reduced hospital readmissions was observed.
One-to-one peer mentoring improves self-efficacy and reduces unplanned hospital readmissions following inpatient rehabilitation for persons with SCI.
评估同伴干预对接受住院康复治疗的脊髓损伤(SCI)患者的自我效能感、非计划性住院再入院和生活质量的有效性。
中断时间序列分析(ITSA)检查了同伴干预对非计划性再入院的影响。将干预变量添加到 ITSA 回归中,以检查与同伴干预接触的关系。治疗效果异质性(HTE)分析检查了四肢瘫痪和截瘫患者的干预效果差异。
专门从事 SCI 和脑损伤康复的康复医院。
接受康复治疗的 SCI 住院患者( = 1117 名,其中 77%为男性,71%为白种人,平均年龄 38.2(SD 16.8))。799 名患者的子样本参与了二次分析,以检查同伴干预、再入院、患者报告结果变化和 HTE 之间的关系。
一对一指导和参与同伴主导的自我管理课程。
出院后 30、90 和 180 天的非计划性再入院、一般自我效能感(GSE)和抑郁症状;出院后 180 天的生活满意度。
在实施同伴干预措施后,我们观察到再入院患者人数的水平和斜率都显著下降,仅出院后 30 天的非计划性住院天数的水平下降。减少再入院患者人数和非计划性住院天数与同伴访问次数有关,但与参加的同伴主导教育课程次数无关。更高的自我效能感(GSE)与更多的同伴指导接触有关,并且观察到 GSE 改善与减少住院再入院之间存在显著关系。
一对一的同伴指导可提高 SCI 住院康复患者的自我效能感并减少非计划性住院再入院。
