Overview

Qualitative study examines clinician perceptions on integrating vision and communication care in SABI patients, suggesting improved pathways.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore clinician perceptions of the impact of visual and communicative deficits in neurorehabilitation for patients with severe acquired brain injuries.
  • Mixed-method approach with documentary research, participant observation, focus group, and open-ended questionnaire.
  • Data collected from two distinct professional groups to triangulate findings.
  • Thematic analysis to identify common themes and perceptions about team collaboration and care challenges.
  • Clinicians recognized the significant role of visual, cognitive, and communicative disorders in patient care.
  • Lack of information on visual aspects in medical records was highlighted, with orthoptists viewed as less integrated.
  • Recommendations for shared evaluation tools emphasized the need for common communication protocols among disciplines.
