Investigating Needs And Concerns Of Working Age Informal Caregivers Of Stroke Survivors, Dixie Rene Rose
Investigating Needs And Concerns Of Working Age Informal Caregivers Of Stroke Survivors, Dixie Rene Rose
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Purpose: The purpose of this dissertation was to explore the unmet needs of working age (18-64) caregivers of stroke survivors and their quality of Life (QoL). First, a scoping review of peer support interventions for caregivers of individuals with cognitive impairment, including stroke, was conducted through the lens of the Social Ecological Model (SEM) Next, an integrative review was conducted to examine stroke caregiver’s QoL utilizing the model of QoL for family caregivers of stroke survivors. Finally, the needs and concerns of working age caregivers of stroke survivors and the factors affecting their QoL were explored through a cross-sectional descriptive …

Comparison Of Accuracy And Efficiency Of Robotic-Assisted Haptic Guidance Versus Freehand Access Preparation In Calcified Teeth, Roshanak Momen
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: The initial step of root canal therapy consists of access preparation. Access preparation can be difficult, due to pulpal calcifications, misaligned teeth, and full coverage restorations that obscure the canal morphology. Recent trends involve static or dynamic guides to help the operator to locate the canals. Both systems have limitations. A robot with haptic guidance has been developed for implant surgeries, however, no studies have evaluated its possible use in endodontics. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the volume of tooth structure removed, and time required for access preparation in calcified anterior teeth differed between a …
Costs, Treatment Approaches, And Access To Care For Stroke Survivors, Corey Morrow
Costs, Treatment Approaches, And Access To Care For Stroke Survivors, Corey Morrow
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Barriers to rehabilitation for stroke survivors exist despite evidence supporting improvements in independence and quality of life. Telerehabilitation is emerging as a viable option to improve costs and access. While there is growing evidence for telerehabilitation efficacy, the associated costs are unknown. Additionally, to inspire changes in reimbursement and policy, more evidence of access disparities is needed. The overall objective of this project is to provide depth to the costs, treatment approaches, and access to care for stroke survivors. We completed three separate projects to address our objective. Our time-driven, activity-based costing analysis compared marginal costs in the care delivery …
