Resilience After Spinal Cord Injury

Abstract

Provide a structured summary that includes (as applicable): background, objectives, eligibility criteria, sources of evidence, charting methods, results, and conclusions that relate to the review questions and objectives.

Developing the Resilience Framework for Nursing and Healthcare

“…Over time, those who consider injury a challenge to be overcome and who use coping skills—both inherent and learned—have a higher likelihood of recovery ( Bonanno et al, 2012 ; Kornhaber et al, 2018 ; Machida et al, 2013 ). It has been shown that exhibiting resilience is predictive of psychological, physiological, and sociological wellness among those with a sudden injury or accident such as a spinal-cord injury ( McDonald et al, 2019 ). Some of these learned behaviors include mood management, not just physical recovery ( Kilic et al, 2013 ).…”

“…Some of these learned behaviors include mood management, not just physical recovery ( Kilic et al, 2013 ). One of the most pertinent compensatory coping-concept strategies for those with a sudden illness or injury is optimism ( Edward, 2013 ; McDonald et al, 2019 ; Stewart & Yuen, 2011 ; Wagnild, 2003 ).…”

“…Strong social support encompasses protective, compensatory, and challenge-related coping-concept strategies ( Ahern et al, 2006 ; Bhattarai et al, 2018 ; Edward, 2013 ; Machida et al, 2013 ; Monden et al, 2014 ; Shin et al, 2012 ; Spratling & Weaver, 2012 ). The ability to adapt to injury and resultant changes ( Ahern et al, 2006 ; Bhattarai et al, 2018 ; Edward, 2013 ; Hunter & Chandler, 1999 ; Jones et al, 2019 ; Kornhaber et al, 2018 ; Machida et al, 2013 ; McDonald et al, 2019 ; Monden et al, 2014 ; Spratling & Weaver, 2012 ), and the act of serving as a role model or inspiring others ( Monden et al, 2014 ), are key challenge-related coping-concepts strategies. Salient protective coping-concept strategies include spirituality ( Bhattarai et al, 2018 ; Jones et al, 2019 ; Monden et al, 2014 ); psychological strength ( Monden et al, 2014 ; Tusaie & Dyer, 2004 ); and perspective ( Garmezy, 1993 ; Monden et al, 2014 ).…”

Conducting a Scoping Review in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

“…Another article from the AJPMR journal is Resilience After Spinal Cord Injury, A Scoping Review. 29 The focus of the review is communicated clearly in the title. The population is persons with spinal cord injury.…”

“…and What themes are associated with resilient outcomes? 29 As authors work to develop and conduct their reviews, the five ScR stages presented in Table 2 should be followed. The following are two recently published ScRs that clearly illustrate the process.…”
