Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
SADL-eM & conventional therapy
Patients with SCI treated in an inpatient rehabilitation setting who receive a copy of the SADL-eM in addition to conventional therapy.
SADL-eM
The SADL-eM includes three elements essential to the intervention, namely: knowledge, skills, and advice. The manual includes 92 A5 pages with six detailed sections: an Introduction and five chapters: (1) Rehabilitation team, (2) Activities of Daily Living, (3) Assistive devices, (4) Home environment adaptation, and (5) Knowledge guide. The SADL-eM uses text and illustrative pictures that are carefully selected for contextual relevance. The manual is simple, easy, and suitable for people with a non-medical background.
Conventional therapy
Patients with SCI treated in an inpatient rehabilitation setting who receive conventional therapy.
