Objective: To study how satisfied members of interdisciplinary rehabilitation teams are with goal planning meetings.
Design: Survey.
Setting: A regional rehabilitation center for people with acute nonprogressive brain injuries in the United Kingdom.
Participants: Forty-four rehabilitation professionals who participated in 31 goal-planning meetings held between January 1, 2001, and March 30, 2001.
Interventions: Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures: Responses to a questionnaire about staff satisfaction with rehabilitation team meetings.
Results: Forty-four of 46 members of 21 different rehabilitation teams completed the questionnaires. They included 12 occupational therapists, 7 physiotherapists, 7 physicians, 6 nurses, 5 clinical psychologists, 5 speech pathologists, and 2 social workers. Median scores of different domains were as follows: participation, 13; behavior, 20; outcome, 14; and process, 16. Correlations between the participation and outcome domains (rho=.731, P=.01) and the process and outcome domains (rho=.384, P=.05) were significant. None of the domain scores correlated with features of the meetings. Scores given by chairpersons for participation (P=.001) and outcome (P=.047) were significantly higher than those given by other participants.
Conclusions: Professionals were satisfied with the behavior of other participants and the process of goal-planning meetings. Satisfaction with outcome was related to satisfaction with the participation in and the process of the meetings. Chairpersons were more satisfied with the participation domain.

Purpose: Central retinal artery occlusion, also known as an eye stroke, results in visual impairment and functional challenges. Our study objectives were to identify meaningful measures and factors that indicate or enable successful recovery after eye stroke and to determine optimal processes to support research, including exploring barriers and facilitators to successful research participation.
Methods: We used qualitative methods including the 5Ts Framework (target population identification, team composition, time considerations, tips to accommodate older adults, tools for inclusive enrollment of older adults) to provide a guide to the development of the semi-structured interviews and to help facilitate the research process such as the set-up of interviews.

Musician's Experience After Breast Cancer Treatment: Defining Musical Toxicity and its Frequency.

Mayo Clinic, Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Oncology, Rochester, MN.
Purpose: Over 50% of households in the United States have at least one musician-many musicians are also breast cancer survivors. This group has not been well studied, and given the level of fine sensory-motor skill required for musicianship, we hypothesized that musicians experience unique manifestations of breast cancer treatment toxicities.
Methods: A nine-item Musical Toxicity Questionnaire (MTQ) was distributed to patients who had consented to participate in the Mayo Clinic Breast Cancer Registry.
