Background: Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA)-based assessment is easily and intuitively used in evaluating the learning outcomes of competency-based medical education (CBME). This study aimed to develop an EPA for occupational therapy focused on providing health education and consultation (TP-EPA3) and examine its validity.
Methods: Nineteen occupational therapists who had completed online training on the EQual rubric evaluation participated in this study.
Importance: The Mini-Clinical Evaluation Exercise (Mini-CEX) is highly recommended for assessing interns' performance.
Objective: To develop a pediatric occupational therapy-specific Mini-CEX and examine its psychometrics.
Design: Stage 1 had a retrospective design; Stage 2 had a prospective design.
Purpose: To examine the effects of ride-on car (ROC) training using different postures on mobility and social function in children with motor delays in comparison with conventional therapy.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-eight children (22 males, 16 females) with motor delays were recruited and randomly assigned to three groups: ROC training while sitting (ROC-Sit, = 15; mean age, 20.25 months; standard deviation [], 5.
Background & Problems: Facilitated tucking (containment) is a strategy that has been demonstrated to improve insufficient muscle tone, reduce procedural pain, and stabilize vital signs in premature infants.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to improve the accuracy and implementation rate of nursing staffs` facilitated tucking.
Methods: Formulate and standardize nursing care to reduce the burden on nursing staff and make staff implementation consistent.
