From: NA-CONTROL: a study protocol for a randomised controlled trial to compare specific outpatient rehabilitation that targets cerebral mechanisms through relearning motor control and uses self-management strategies to improve functional capability of the upper extremity, to usual care in patients with neuralgic amyotrophy

Treatment model with the components addressed during the rehabilitation programme. Issues in the outer two circles (External factors, Activity and Participation) form the main focus of the occupational therapy sessions. During the physical therapy sessions, the main focus is on improving body functions. All other components (i.e. disease knowledge, fatigue, pain, behaviour and self-efficacy and self-management) are addressed during occupational and physical therapy. This is accomplished through conveying knowledge of neuralgic amyotrophy and adaptation of behaviour related to functioning in daily life. Reproduced with permission from IJspeert et al.
