Occupational therapy focuses on helping patients regain activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, and eating through hands-on assistance and exercises until they can perform tasks independently, as opposed to just treating the injury. It works with patients who have conditions affecting movement and cognition like strokes, fractures, depression, and dementia. While physical and occupational therapy may use similar activities, their focuses are different, with occupational therapy aiming to improve independent living skills rather than just physical abilities.

Keys to Patient Education by Keith Wassung
The document discusses effective strategies for educating patients about chiropractic principles. It recommends reframing patient education as "patient re-education" since it involves dismantling patients' existing health beliefs. It also advises connecting chiropractic to restoring normal function rather than just symptom relief. Finally, it suggests using leading questions to engage patients and have them derive answers themselves, which makes the information more credible coming from them. The goal is to change patients' health paradigms and enable them to share the chiropractic story with others.
Patient physiotherapist relationship
This document discusses the patient-physiotherapist relationship. It outlines the patient relations program which promotes the therapeutic relationship through education and resources. Physiotherapists assess, treat, and prevent injuries through hands-on techniques like manual therapy and exercise instruction. The relationship is important to treatment outcomes through factors like communication, adherence to treatment, and a patient's self-efficacy. Physiotherapists are expected to maintain appropriate boundaries and manage the relationship to ensure it remains therapeutic.

OAS Case Study: Mrs. K
This document describes the occupational therapy evaluation and treatment plan for Mrs. K, a 63-year-old woman with arthritis, diabetes, and occupational difficulties due to pain and fatigue. The evaluation found she had weakness, impaired sensation, and arthritic hand deformities. Her goals were to independently perform ADLs with decreased pain and fatigue, and self-feed. The treatment plan included education, splinting, adaptive equipment, and a home exercise program. After treatment, Mrs. K's pain and fatigue decreased and she achieved independence with ADLs and self-feeding.
Flexor Tenosynovitis
This document discusses flexor sheath infections of the fingers. It notes that these infections usually result from penetrating trauma and are more common at finger joint flexion creases. Left untreated, the infections can destroy the tendon gliding mechanism, lead to adhesions, and cause tendon necrosis. Poor prognosis is associated with factors like age over 43, diabetes, or presenting with a high stage of infection involving subcutaneous purulence or digital ischemia. Treatment involves antibiotics and surgical drainage or irrigation of the flexor sheath depending on the infection stage. Chronic tenosynovitis can also rarely occur from puncture wounds in aquatic environments.

2. Laboratory tests showed elevated white blood cell count and blood sugar. X-ray of the hand showed thickened tendons. The patient was diagnosed with suppurative tenosynovitis.
3. Suppurative tenosynovitis is an infection or inflammation of the flexor tendon sheath that can occur in any joint but is most common in the hands and wrists. It develops when the synovial lining of the tendon sheath becomes injured or infected.

Occupational Therapy vs Physical Therapy
This document summarizes the key differences between occupational therapy and physical therapy. Occupational therapy focuses on promoting health and well-being through daily activities, and aims to help patients regain independence. Physical therapy concentrates on treating injuries directly and preventing future injuries by improving mobility. Both fields work to rehabilitate patients through exercises and help them resume daily routines. While physical therapists focus on the physical aspects, occupational therapists address the mental aspect as well. The two fields often collaborate to ensure patients can move well and care for themselves independently.
Flexor and Extensor Tendon Laceration vs. Occupational Therapy

I also discuss, briefly, the application of certain aspects of occupational therapy's domain as outlined in the OTPF. I collected data from scholarly as well as non-scholarly resources. I hope you find this to be helpful.
Hand injuries
The document discusses various hand injuries, including fractures, dislocations, and ligament injuries. It provides details on evaluating and treating different types of injuries through examination, imaging, and both nonsurgical and surgical techniques. Metacarpal and phalangeal fractures are generally first treated nonsurgically, while displaced or unstable fractures may require open reduction and internal fixation. Thumb injuries like Bennett's fractures and collateral ligament tears often benefit from surgical repair to restore anatomy and avoid long-term issues. Evaluation involves assessing injury mechanism, swelling, deformity, range of motion, and imaging findings to determine appropriate treatment.

Occupational therapy2
- 1. I Thought Physical and Occupational Therapy was the Same Thing!By : Kimberly Ramsey
- 2. Occupational Therapy is helping patients gain back their activities of daily living (ADL’s), which are the things that you do daily, such as brushing your teeth, eating, bathing, grooming yourself, and personal hygiene. Not only do they work with ADL’s, they work with the patient holistically, instead of just looking at the problem.
- 4. For example, with a stroke patient, if they lose the ability to dress themselves by themselves, they help assist the patient with getting dresses until they are able to regain the ability to do it on their own and do it independently again. They don’t only work with stroke patients, they also work with patients that have fractures and broken bones, depression, congestive heart failure, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, dementia, Alzheimer, and Parkinson’s, just to name a few.
- 6. Sometimes people have a hard time distinguishing the differences between Occupational and Physical Therapy until the physician recommends it to the patient. That is when people finally see a difference between the two therapies. Some of the activities may seem similar, but the focuses of the two are different.
- 8. The main misconception that people experience is that either they are the same thing or that they get the two mixed up thinking that occupational therapy is physical therapy, vice versa. Another thing that people get confused about occupational therapy is that you go to them to help you find a job or help you find a career for your life.
- 10. Occupational therapy is just as beneficial as physical therapy, but it really depends on the area of focus and the accident that has occurred. Occupational therapy may be needed where physical therapy is not and vice versa, so there is no therapy more beneficial than the other, because the main goal is to helping the patient gain back their independence or at least to their maximal function.
