Patient Involvement in the Rehabilitation Process Is Associated with Improvement in Function and Goal Attainment: Results from an Explorative Longitudinal Study.

ABSTRACT: The objective was to explore the associations between patient involvement in the rehabilitation process and improvements in function and goal attainment in the first year after rehabilitation. The longitudinal multicenter study RehabNytte provided data from participants who had been referred to rehabilitation (n = 2113). Quality indicator (QI) pass rates (% yes) were used to assess patient involvement in the rehabilitation process. The Patient-Specific Functional Scale (PSFS) (10 = best possible) was used to assess function. The outcome QI on goal achievement (response options of yes/no) was used to assess goal attainment. Logistic regression and paired sample t-tests were used to examine associations and mean changes in function from rehabilitation admission up to 3, 6, and 12 mont
