Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews Protocol - Intervention

Multidisciplinary rehabilitation for follow‐up after primary brain tumour treatment

This is not the most recent version

Abstract

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (Intervention). The objectives are as follows:

To assess the effectiveness of multidisciplinary rehabilitation in persons after primary brain tumour treatment, and specifically to explore the following areas:

  • Does organised multidisciplinary rehabilitation achieve better outcomes than the absence of such services in persons after primary brain tumour treatment?

  • Which type of programmes are effective and in which setting?

  • Does a greater intensity (time and expertise, or both) of rehabilitation lead to greater gains?

  • Which specific outcomes are influenced (survival, dependency, social integration, mood, quality of life)?
