Brief Summary

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

The objective of this observational study is to gain insight into a new approach to rehabilitation in Austria, with a particular focus on work-specific exercises that are dependent on the specific work-related needs of the patients. Two groups are being observed: one was referred to a three-week work-specific rehabilitation programme immediately upon arrival at the rehabilitation centre, while the other group underwent a three-week medical-focused rehabilitation programme before starting a four-week work-specific rehabilitation programme.

Researchers will monitor for indications of improvement following completion of the rehabilitation program. As the two forms of rehabilitation are not directly comparable, they will be observed and analysed as two distinct entities.

As part of their regular inpatient rehabilitation, participants will complete questionnaires at designated intervals (beginning and end of stay), with follow-up assessments scheduled at six and 12 months post-rehabilitation.

Study Groups

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

3-week work-specific rehabilitation

This group is referred to the work-specific rehabilitation programme immediately upon arrival at the rehabilitation centre.

Multimodal rehabilitation with additional work specific training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The rehabilitation is based on the biopsychosocial ICF model of the WHO. Taking into account the physical and psychological condition of the patients, an individual therapy plan is created that is tailored to the needs of the patients.

4-week work-specific rehabilitation

This group first underwent a three-week medical-focused rehabilitation programme prior to commencing the work-specific rehabilitation programme.

Multimodal rehabilitation with additional work specific training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The rehabilitation is based on the biopsychosocial ICF model of the WHO. Taking into account the physical and psychological condition of the patients, an individual therapy plan is created that is tailored to the needs of the patients.
