Evaluation and Goal-setting : An interview study of occupational therapists work at stroke units in Sweden (English)
Abstract [sv]

Inledning och Bakgrund: Vid arbete tillsammans med personer som drabbats av stroke är det vanligt att arbetsterapeuter använder sig av både funktionsbedömningar och av aktivitetsbaserade bedömningar. Flera studier belyser vikten av att sätta mål tillsammans med patienten, men det finns faktorer som hindrar eller möjliggör att målformulering utförs. 

Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva hur arbetsterapeuter på strokeenheter i Sverige arbetar med utredning och målformulering tillsammans med personer som drabbats av stroke.

Metod: Designen är en beskrivande, kvalitativ intervjustudie med induktiv ansats. Avsiktligt urval användes för att rekrytera deltagare. Datainsamling utfördes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer av nio arbetsterapeuter. Dataanalys utfördes genom kvalitativ innehållsanalys.

Resultat: Resultatet kunde sammanfattas i den övergripande huvudkategorin Aktivitetsförmåga bedöms med olika tillvägagångssätt. Den bestod av fyra kategorier: Lära känna patienten, Funktions- eller aktivitetsbedömning?, Hinner inte sätta mål, MEN... samt Kliniskt resonemang. 

Slutsats: Genom angreppsättet True top-down får arbetsterapeuten verktyg att skapa sig en bättre helhetsbild av den strokedrabbade personens aktivitetsförmåga. Motor and Process Skills Rating Form kan erbjuda ett stöd i att beskriva och dokumentera vad som observerats i en aktivitetsbedömning. För att målformulering ska utföras i större utsträckning på strokeenheter, behöver rutiner utarbetas. 

Abstract [en]

Introduction: When working with individuals suffering from stroke, it is common that occupational therapists use both function-based and occupation-based assessments. Several studies highlight the importance of goal-setting together with the patient, but there are factors that either prevent or enable goal-setting to be carried out.

Aim: The aim was to describe how occupational therapists at stroke units in Sweden work with evaluation and goal setting together with persons who has suffered a stroke.

Method: The study was performed using a descriptive, qualitative interview design with an inductive approach.  Purposive sampling was used to recruit participants. Data was collected using semi-structured interviews with nine occupational therapists. The collected data was analysed in line with qualitative content method.  

Results: The results was summarized in the overarching main category Occupational capacity is assessed using different approaches. The main category contained four categories: Getting to know the patient, Function- or activity assessment?, Not having the time for goal-setting, BUT... and Clinical reasoning.  

Conclusions: Through the True top-down approach, the occupational therapist gets tools to create a better overall picture of the occupational capacity of the stroke patient. The Motor and Process Skills Rating Form can offer support in describing and documenting an observation. An elaborate process and routines need to be carried out to enable goal-setting in a greater extent at stroke units in Sweden.
