Improving translation of intensity and quality of upper limb rehabilitation provided by occupational therapists to children with unilateral cerebral palsy: A cluster randomised controlled trial [ 2015 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Leanne Sakzewski (Principal investigator)

Brief description This study aims to increase occupational therapist's use of best available evidence of intensive upper limb therapy for children with unilateral cerebral palsy. The study will determine in a cluster randomised trial whether a multifaceted implementation program comprising: (a) audit & feedback, (b) identifying barriers to implementing best practice evidence, and (c) targeted interactive training is more effective than a single faceted program (audit & feedback alone) to increase evidence uptake.
