Early Daily Activity: Development and description of an occupation-based intervention for surgically repaired distal radius Fractures.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To describe the theoretical development and structure of an occupation-based intervention for people with a surgically repaired distal radius fracture.

Intervention development and rationale

The Early Daily Activity (EDA) intervention uses the performance of strategically selected daily activities as the primary rehabilitative strategy. Occupation-based interventions are recommended for hand injury rehabilitation but are often poorly described and lack explicit theoretical underpinnings. The EDA-intervention was developed from exploratory research that informed the theory and structure. The theoretical principles are that daily activity performance is (i) safe within defined parameters (ii) appropriately self-determined (iii) produces high ranges and amounts of the
