Changes in Workability and Employment Following the Work-related Medical Rehabilitation PV RehaJET
Sponsor: Pensionsversicherungsanstalt
Summary
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.
