Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a Motivational Interviewing intervention on therapy participation as performed by physical and occupational therapists in an inpatient setting with patients with spinal cord injuries.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Physical and Occupational Therapists that work in the inpatient spinal cord injury unit will be trained in Motivational Interviewing and will use the communication style to determine whether it is an effective tool to increase participation in therapy as opposed to patients who will have Physical and Occupational Therapists that are not trained in Motivational Interviewing.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Patients in the experimental group will be exposed to a Physical or Occupational Therapist trained in Motivational Interviewing. The control group will receive standard therapy communication.
Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Participants Outcome Assessors
Patient participants will be blinded as will an assessor measuring participation during sessions. Therapist participants will be aware of the arm in which they will be placed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Motivational Interviewing

Physical and Occupational Therapists will have 16 hours of training in Motivational Interviewing and use these techniques during sessions with patients.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Motivational Interviewing

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Motivational Interviewing is a communication style that is intended to give patients the tools to reach goals through their own desires and actions.

Control

Therapists will not participate in additional training.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
