Amelia Tan

Occupational Therapist | PhD Candidate at The University of Queensland; looking at decision-making aids and clinical reasoning in upper limb neurorehabilitation

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Firstborn of my PhD, published in @DisabilityRehab! Our #scopingreview with expert consultation found 15 decision-making aids for upper limb #neurorehabilitation. Wanna know which features make aids clinically useful? 50 free prints @ https://t.co/OLmVaQklF1 #OccupationalTherapy

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Presented a clinical poster about my work with @hopkins_centre @MetSthHealth to translate and implement #SaeboFlex into clinical practice for #upperlimb #neurorehabilitation at PAH! Also pleasantly surprised to meet @sgbrauer (Head of @uqshrs) at #RehabWeek2023 in Singapore!

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Presented my first study, a scoping review on decision-making aids for #upperlimb #rehabilitation, on Wed 21 June at #OTAUS2023 (already published in @DisabilityRehab) Another presentation tomorrow (Fri) on my mixed methods multiple-case study research!

Always lovely to catch up with @UQHealth colleagues at #OTAUS2023! (First time at a conference with my mini me +1 😅) @sarahswan_OT @EmmahDoig

2nd PhD publication in @I_B_I_A’s #braininjury journal! Study 1 of 2 on the clinical utility of a decision-making aid. Though useful, strategies to ⬆️ organisational support and therapist confidence/ skills are needed and suggested. Read it #OpenAccess at https://t.co/T0pr0tkKsb

Woohoo congrats @melanie_hoyle!!!

[Louise Gustafsson @lou_gustafsson]

Abstract Session 8 on Community Care was full of excellent presentations! We finished the session with @AnneCusick as the final presenter, who was very engaging as she shared about her study on a #fallsprevention program for #stroke survivors! @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Enjoyed hearing about @lou_gustafsson’s research, and brought me back to 8-9 years ago when I last heard her speak (at one of my #occupationaltherapy undergrad lectures)! Got reminded today about how much we used to enjoy her #UQ #SHRS lectures! @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

We started Day 2 of @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22 with a very inspiring presentation by @NurseResearch on the #QASC! Always great to hear success stories like this about #researchimpact - gives us that little booster to keep persevering with our research!

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Attended a fantastic workshop yesterday by @neurodana and @JTrevenaPeters who provided useful multidisciplinary strategies for working with people with cognitive and mood changes! It was also lovely to finally meet @neurodana in person at @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22!

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

@SarahKAshcroft presented her great #systematicreview and #metaanalysis on the effect of aerobic exercise intensity and duration on BDNF in #stroke survivors! It was lovely to meet you and all the best for the rest of your #PhD! @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes2022

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Enjoyed hearing @kscriv2013’s talk yesterday that #Bobath therapy is inferior to task-specific training and not superior to other interventions in improving LL activity after #stroke! Can someone do a similar study for the #upperlimb please?🤗 @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22

[Amelia Tan @AmeliaTanOT]

Had a wonderful day yesterday at @SMARTSTROKES_AU #smartstrokes22 sharing my study findings, learning about the newest #stroke research, and connecting with allied health colleagues working in #neurorehab!
