Studying Rehabilitation Treatments Using Video to Improve Recovery for Adults With Physical Disabilities

Using the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS) to Maximize Rehabilitation Research Impact: A Video-Based Observational Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to better understand how occupational therapists provide rehabilitation for adults recovering from stroke or spinal cord injury (SCI), with a focus on improving arm and hand function. Using video recordings of real outpatient therapy sessions, researchers will identify the key elements of treatment, such as the types of activities, the therapist's techniques, and how patients respond. The study will use the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System (RTSS), a framework designed to clearly describe rehabilitation methods. By analyzing these sessions, the research team will develop a practical toolkit to help therapists and researchers deliver and study more effective rehabilitation treatments in the future.
