  10. Academic Health Science Center

  11. Academic Programs • School of Medicine • School of Nursing • School of Health Professions • Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences

  12. Areas of Research: Aging, Tropical/Infectious Disease, Structural Biology, Minority (Hispanic) Health, Neuroscience, 3 WHO Collaborating Centers

  13. Outline Mission / Description Need for the Center Structure & Partners Programs & Activities Resources Future Plans

  14. NIH Rehabilitation Research Support • The R24 rehabilitation research infrastructure program, supported by the NIH, currently funds seven centers around the country. • Engineering for Neurological Rehabilitation Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago and Northwestern University • Center for Translation of Rehabilitation EngineeringAdvances and Technology • Dartmouth College & Simbex http://www.ncmrr.org

  15. Infrastructure Grant • Boston Rehabilitation Outcomes Measurement Center • Boston University • Core for Molecular and Functional Outcome Measures in Rehabilitation Medicine • Research Center for Genetic Medicine at Children’s National Medical Center, Washington DC • National Center for Simulation in Rehabilitation Research • Stanford University and Simbios • Medical Rehabilitation Research Infrastructure Program in Muscle • University of California at San Diego

  16. Center for Rehabilitation Research using Large Datasets The goal of the Center is to build rehabilitation research capacity by increasing the quantity and quality of rehabilitation outcomes research using large administrative and research datasets.

  17. Need for the Center • Rehabilitation investigators are trained to conduct (prospective) clinical, patient- oriented research, not secondary data analysis • A large number of datasets are available that include information related to rehabilitation and disability • Advances in bioinformatics, information technology and the internet have resulted in easier access to aggregated information

  18. CRRLD Consortium Partners • Rehabilitation Sciences Academic Division & Research Center (University of Texas Medical Branch) • Center for Rehabilitation Outcomes Research (Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago) • Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (University at Buffalo) • Employment and Disability Institute (Cornell University)

  19. Activities • Raise Awareness. Seminars and workshops designed to raise awareness among investigators, educators, and practitioners regarding the importance of secondary data analysis. These will be presented at professional meetings and conferences. • Web Site. Establish a website that will provide information generated from Center activities and programs. For example, training materials and modules will be available on the web. • http://rehabsciences.utmb.edu/r24

  20. http://rehabsciences.utmb.edu/r24

  21. Activities • Education and Training. Create training materials & modules related to large database research. Examples: 1) Security, privacy and IRB issues; 2) Data management (general); and 3) Methods of data analysis including missing data and selection bias. • Data Directory. Develop a directory of existing datasets including descriptions of how to access the information, a listing of the variables contained in the dataset, the purpose of the dataset, and contact information.

  22. Activities • Visiting Scholars Program. Rehabilitation investigators will work with experienced scientists at one of the consortium institutions, using large datasets to address questions important to rehabilitation and disability outcomes. Support is provided up to six months. • Pilot Project Program. Funding available for pilot studies in which rehabilitation investigators conduct research in collaboration with a CRRLD mentor/collaborator using a large dataset.

  23. Pilot Studies • Functional Independence and Healthcare Experiences Following Discharge from Inpatient Rehabilitation • Juli Wylegala, PhD, PT, University of Buffalo • Comparison of Rehabilitation Outcomes of Veterans and Medicare Beneficiates • Diane M. Collins, PhD, OTR, University of Pittsburgh • Predictors of Functional Disparities among Individuals Living with Spinal Cord Injury • Denise Fyffe, PhD, Kessler Foundation Research Center • Frailty transitions and frailty-free life expectancy among older Mexican Americans: Gender differences • Soham Al Snih, MD, PhD, University of Texas Medical Branch

  24. Sample Datasets • Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services • Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation • Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (AHRQ) • Hispanice Established Population Epidemiological Study of the Elderly (NIA) • American Community Survey (U.S. Census Bureau) • Health and Retirement Survey (NIA) • Mexican Health and Aging Study (NIA) • National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (CDC)

  25. UDSMR Data • Currently about 850 facilities • subscribe to the UDS database • service • Database contains records from 1987 to present (>10 million records) • Proprietary database requires license and data-use agreement • Includes data on non-Medicare patients http://www.udsmr.org

  26. Sample Data Files • Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility - Patient Assessment Instrument(IRF-PAI) files • (2002 – 2009) • MedPAR files (1999 - 2009) • Beneficiary Summary files (1999 - 2009) • Provider of Service (2001- 2009) • Area Resource File (2008 Access: HRSA) http://www3.cms.gov/InpatientRehabFacPPS/04_IRFPAI.asp

  27. Collaboration Opportunities for collaboration on rehabilitation outcomes research using large datasets.

  28. Doing outcomes research is a lot like raising children… you always think you are going to do a better job next time. The End http://rehabsciences.utmb.edu/r24/ACRM.asp
