“…The perceived heightened credibility of a peer who can demonstrate MWC skills compared to a trainer who does not have MWC use experience has been previously described (Divanoglou & Georgiou, 2017;Standal & Jespersen, 2008). However, similar to the findings of a recent systematic review (Beaudoin et al, 2018), participants in this study confirmed that healthcare professionals played an important role in WheelSeeU and may be required to successfully implement WheelSeeU in the community.…”

“…A recent systematic review confirmed that peer-based interventions can effectively improve mobility and participation outcomes among individuals with physical disabilities (Beaudoin et al, 2018). Therefore, gaining skills and independence not only influenced feelings of autonomy, but also led to personally and socially meaningful contributions.…”

“…Occupational therapy is a unique profession that requires the clinician to assess and train client, environmental, and occupational perspectives to improve MWC mobility and participation in clients' daily life (American Occupational Therapy Association, 2017). To augment occupational therapy services, peer-based interventions may provide a potential strategy for improving mobility and participation in the community (Beaudoin et al, 2018). In this way, peer-trainers may support MWC training roles that were traditionally the sole responsibility of occupational therapists.…”

“…Peer-led approaches represent a useful method for providing services during acute rehabilitation and throughout community integration (Beaudoin, Best, & Routhier, 2018;Martin Ginis, Nigg, & Smith, 2013). A continuum of MWC training services, from clinics to community, would permit new MWC users the time to experience the task demands of using a MWC, and could offer experienced users 'booster sessions' to obtain additional training at useful times.…”

Background. Manual wheelchair (MWC) training is important, but less than 50% of new wheelchair users receive any training. The Wheelchair training Self-efficacy Enhanced for Use (WheelSeeU), a community-based peer-led MWC training program, is feasible and effective for improving wheelchair skills. However, implementing effective programs requires an understanding of stakeholders’ experiences. Purpose. Explore older adults’ perceptions about their participation in the WheelSeeU program. Method. Qualitative interviews were conducted with participants who completed the WheelSeeU program. Thematic analysis was conducted. Findings. Three themes emerged. 1. Getting my life back described participants’ perceived impact of the WheelSeeU program on their lives. 2. I can do it too, implied critical facilitators for success. 3. Social gains, revealed participants’ feelings of social inclusion through participation in the program. Implications. Older adults expressed satisfaction and quality of participation with the WheelSeeU program that increased autonomy, improved MWC mobility and self-efficacy, and enhanced social connectedness.

“…Thus, there is an urgent need for high‐quality RCTs to be able to answer the research question. The Quality Assessment Tool for Before‐After (Pre‐Post) Studies with No Control Group that was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies is recommended by the National Institute of Health 24 and has previously been used in systematic reviews 33,34 …”

Background It has been suggested that botulinum toxin A (BONT‐A) is a safe and effective treatment in relieving pain in patients with persistent idiopathic dentoalveolar pain (PIDP). Objectives This study aimed to systematically evaluate all the available studies investigating the pain‐relieving effects of BONT‐A in patients with PIDP. Methods A systematic search with specific search terms was made in PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus. Two authors screened titles and abstracts and selected eligible studies for inclusion in the systematic review. The quality of the studies was evaluated by the 12 items Quality Assessment Tool for Observational studies (Pre‐Post) Studies with No Control Group, and the level of evidence was assessed according to GRADE. Results Three observational studies of 3695 identified were included (445 overlapping studies; 3247 excluded studies). All studies were uncontrolled observational studies investigating the pain‐relieving effect of BONT‐A in patients with PIDP. The included studies had a fair quality (moderate risk of bias) and insufficient level of evidence. The pain reducing effect by BONT‐A injections was in average 50% or more in two studies, in one study 3 out of 4 patients became almost pain free. Conclusions This systematic review shows that presently the level of scientific evidence is insufficient to evaluate the pain‐relieving effect of BONT‐A injections in patients with PIDP. There are indications that BONT‐A injections could be a possible management option for patients with PIDP that seems to be safe and with few adverse events. There is a need for well‐designed placebo‐controlled, double‐blind RCTs.
