Context:Adherence to clinic-based rehabilitation might influence outcomes.Objective:To examine the construct validity and interrater agreement of a measure of adherence to clinic-based rehabilitation.Design:Repeated-measures in both study 1 and study 2.Participants:43 student rehabilitation practitioners in study 1 and 12 patients undergoing rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in study 2.Interventions:Participants in study 1 rated the adherence of a simulated videotaped patient exhibiting high, moderate, and low adherence. Two certified athletic trainers rated the adherence of patients at 4 consecutive appointments in study 2.Main Outcome Measure:The Sport Injury Rehabilitation Adherence Scale.Results:In study 1, adherence ratings increased in a linear fashion across the 3 levels of adherence, andrWG(J)and rater-agreement-index values ranging from .84 to .95 were obtained. In study 2, the rater-agreement index was .94.Conclusions:Strong support was found for the construct validity and interrater agreement of the Sport Injury Rehabilitation Adherence Scale.

Objective: Evaluate the effect of a smartphone application on exercise adherence, range of motion and self-efficacy compared to standard rehabilitation after repair of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon. Design: Prospective multi-centre randomised controlled trial. Setting: Four hand surgery departments in Sweden. Subjects: A total of 101 patients (35 women) (mean age 37.5 ± 12.8) were randomised to control ( n = 49) or intervention group ( n = 52). Intervention: A smartphone application to facilitate rehabilitation. Main outcome measures: Adherence assessed with the Sport Injury Rehabilitation Adherence Scale at two and six weeks (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes were self-reported adherence in three domains assessed at two and six weeks, self-efficacy assessed with Athlete Injury Self-Efficacy Questionnaire at baseline, two and six weeks. Range of motion and perceived satisfaction with rehabilitation and information were assessed at 12 weeks. Results: Twenty-five patients were lost to follow-up. There was no significant between group difference in Sport Injury Rehabilitation Adherence Scale at two or six weeks, mean scores (confidence interval, CI 95%) 12.5 (CI 11.8–13.3), 11.8 (CI 11.0–12.8) for the intervention group, and 13.3 (CI 12.6–14.0), 12.8 (CI 12.0–13.7) for the control group. Self-reported adherence for exercise frequency at six weeks was significantly better for the intervention group, 93.2 (CI 86.9–99.5) compared to the controls 82.9 (CI 76.9–88.8) ( P = 0.02). There were no differences in range of motion, self-efficacy or satisfaction. Conclusion: The smartphone application used in this study did not improve adherence, self-efficacy or range of motion compared to standard rehabilitation for flexor tendon injuries. Further research regarding smartphone applications is needed. Level of evidence: I. Randomised controlled trial

This study examined the relationship between the three facets of subjective meaning—personal incentives, sense of self, and perceived behavioral options—and adherence behaviors in the athletic injury rehabilitation setting. Subjects were 40 intercollegiate athletes who had sustained a sport related injury; all completed a questionnaire assessing the three components of meaning specific to sport and injury rehabilitation. Adherence was defined as a composite of attendance at the prescribed sessions, degree of completion of the prescribed exercise protocol, and the athlete's intensity or effort exerted in performing the prescribed exercise. Multiple-regression analyses indicated that each dimension significantly predicted adherence behaviors. Athletes who demonstrated greater adherence believed in the efficacy of the treatment, perceived more social support for their rehabilitation, were more goal directed or self-motivated, and placed more emphasis on mastery or task-involved goals in sport.

Context: A multidisciplinary approach is one of the many forms of professional practice that can be utilized by sports medicine professionals to provide care to injured athletes. While this approach has been empirically supported in the health care domain, studies supporting its utilization in the sport injury rehabilitation context—particularly at the high school level—are limited. Objective: To investigate former high school athletes’ experiences of a multidisciplinary model of care for sport injury rehabilitation. Design: Cross-sectional survey design. Setting: In-person, in a classroom setting at 2 Division I universities. Patients: A total of 186 former high school athletes. Main Outcome Measure: An author-constructed instrument developed using the multidisciplinary model of care for sport injury rehabilitation as a guide. Results: Family, athletic coaches, and athletic trainers were the closest professionals/individuals that injured athletes reported interacting with during sport injury rehabilitation. The data also revealed that these professionals/individuals had the closest and most direct relationships with the injured athletes. Conclusions: The findings from the present study provided support for the utilization of the multidisciplinary model of care for sport injury rehabilitation with high school athletes.

Objectives:To examine the relationships among preinjury and postinjury stress, coping, personality, mood state, and rehabilitation adherence.Design:Participants completed measures of preinjury life-event stress, social-support satisfaction, dispositional optimism, and mood state. Injured athletes completed postinjury measures of mood state, coping methods, and cognitive appraisals of stress and coping ability 1, 4, 7, 14, and 28 days postinjury. Their athletic trainer completed a measure of rehabilitation adherence on those days.Participants:84 college football players including 19 injured athletes.Results:Negative-life-event stress predicted postinjury mood disturbance, which was positively related with appraisals. Appraisals were related to greater avoidance coping at day 7, greater active behavioral coping at days 14 and 28, and less active cognitive coping at day 28. Active behavioral coping was associated with greater mood disturbance, and active cognitive coping and avoidance coping were inversely related.Conclusions:Results support cognitive-appraisal models of sport injury and dynamic views of coping with injury.
