Summary

The study is a multicenter longitudinal observational study. The therapy content and the therapy dosage of arm/skill training for patients with cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) will be observed for the primary objective. The aim is to get insight into the current therapy content and the current therapy dosage in arm/hand skill training, with the overall aim to optimize the arm/hand skill training. For the secondary objective, in addition to the patients with cervical SCI also, patients with paraplegia as a result of SCI are included. The aim is to assess the difference between the patient's perceived dose and the therapist's estimation of the therapy dose. This will give insight into the patient's and therapist's views on therapy dose; this information will contribute to optimizing therapy dose in exercise therapy in SCI. The third aim is a pilot study to explore the usability of evening reports in SCI rehabilitation.
