ABSTRACT
@#Objective To translate the Water Orientation Test of Alyn 2 (WOTA2) into Chinese, and to study its reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury. Methods After authorizing, the English version WOTA2 scale and its training package were translated into Chinese. From January to September, 2018, 137 patients with spinal cord injury were evaluated with the Chinese version WOTA2 by two evaluators independently, and evaluated again three days later by one of the evaluators. The Cronbach's α, Spearman-Brown coefficient, intra-group correlation coefficient (ICC) and Kappa coefficient were calculated to evaluate the reliability. Content Validity Index (CVI) of items (I-CVI) and scale (S-CVI) were used to evaluate the content validity, and factors analysis was used to evaluate the structure validity. Results The Cronbach's α was 0.947 in all items of the scale, 0.890 in mental adjustment items and 0.954 in aquatic skills items. Pearson correlation coefficient of the half scales separated by odd and even items was 0.948, and the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.973. The ICC of test-retest was 0.965 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The ICC of inter-testers was 0.964 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The Kappa coefficient was 0.528 to 0.927 in test-retest and 0.528 to 0.927 in inter-testers. The I-CVI was 0.8 to 1.0 and S-CVI was 0.63. Factors analysis extracted four factors, which met the theory, and contributed 67% of cumulative variance. Conclusion The Chinese version WOTA2 is good in reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury, and can be used in the clinical practice of aquatic therapeutic exercise in China.
ABSTRACT
With the continuous expansion of the enrollment of international medical students and the improvement of teaching quality, as well as the rapid development of rehabilitation medicine in China, rehabilitation medicine has become one of the required courses for in-ternational medical students. In view of the main problems suffered by the international medical undergraduate students in the study of reha-bilitation medicine, we mainly focused on the education concepts, teaching management and quality evaluation system, curriculum setting, construction of teaching materials, teacher training, teaching mode, teaching research and so on. The aim is to provide reference for improv-ing education quality in the course of rehabilitation medicine for the international medical students.
ABSTRACT
How to give full play to the advantages of rehabilitation institutions, and to improve service quality and administration effi-ciency are some of the complex issues faced by the high-level administrators of rehabilitation institutions. This paper studied a total of 67 in-stitutions to investigate the operation and management model of rehabilitation institutions in China, as well as their advantages and disadvan-tages.
ABSTRACT
The establishment of an efficient performance management system is crucial for a rehabilitation institution. This article dis-cussed the concept of performance, performance management and ways to establish an efficient performance management system.
