Clinical Trial Summary
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR) is a newer rapidly growing specialty in
Bangladesh. Because of the improved primary care and acute care services people are living
longer with a raised demand of hospitalizations of patients with disabilities resulting from
trauma and disease conditions. There is necessity of developing a better service outlet of
the patients withpain and paralysis in association of various disabilities. Patients
undergoing comprehensive rehabilitation require the services of multiple health care
providers who possess unique skills, training, and expertise that are employed for the full
restoration of these patients' function and their optimal reintegration into all aspects of
life. Assessment, treatment planning, and therapy are often provided by rehabilitation
clinicians specializing in occupational therapy, physical therapy, prosthetics and orthotics,
psychology and recreational therapy, speech and language pathology, rehabilitation nursing,
social work, dietary science, case management, and others. Rapidly expanding Bangabandhu
Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) has been working as the center of excellence for
patient managements and postgraduate medical education in Bangladesh. Rehabilitation Medicine
wards Indoor services started during June 2015 and over a total of 600 patients were treated
in the facilities so far. Rehabilitation team meeting occurs in the department of PMR in the
many countries of the world. Still there is no team meeting in PMR department in our country.
So we started Rehabilitation team meeting in our department in BSMMU for the wellbeing of the
patient and this will increase the reputation of this University.
