Aim Of The Study: In order to develop an online portal for the preparation for inpatient psychosomatic rehabilitation, information requirements as well as the online use behavior of rehabilitants were determined first.
Methods: Four focus groups with rehabilitants (N=31) as well as two with the treatment team (N=18) were performed and evaluated qualitatively.
Results: A total of 419 statements by rehabilitants and 333 statements by the treatment team were coded and assigned to categories. Current information materials on rehabilitation have been regarded as too extensive and difficult to understand by rehabilitants. They were uncertain regarding the effectiveness and sustainability of the treatment. While practitioners assumed that rehabilitants expect wellness and relaxation during rehabilitation, rehabilitants themselves reported more of an active treatment orientation.
Conclusion: Online portals for preparation should address the effectiveness and sustainability of psychosomatic rehabilitation by means of illustrative case studies.

Careful operationalization of cognitive impairment is essential to improving the diagnostic specificity and accuracy of TES criteria. We compared single- versus two-test criteria for cognitive impairment in their associations with CSF and imaging biomarkers in male former American football players.
