Episode 2: Canadian Occupational Performance Measure
Welcome to the EBPOT podcast. The podcast is designed to help paediatric occupational therapists stay up to date with the latest publications in the world of OT. It's great fortnightly additional to your CPD portfolio. Today's EBPOT podcast topic is the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. The reason I wanted to review these articles early on in the podcast is because many of the research studies that I will be reviewing use the COPM as an outcome measure. There is a long hold belief that a change of 2 points in the clients post invention scoring is clinically significant. The articles that I'm reviewing today question this belief. The first is a scoping review that tried to identify the source of this claim. The second article is a recently published systematic review which explores the use of the COPM research.
