A qualitative study of the perceived benefits of participating in a spinal cord rehabilitation intervention in a low-middle income country.

Rehabilitation plays an integral role in prompting and integrating positive experiences and changes in QoL for people with spinal cord injury (SCI), especially in a resource constrained context where there is limited opportunity to participate in rehabilitation interventions.Locomotor training and activity-based training can enhance perceived functional independence and psychosocial well-being following SCI.Rather than focus on traditional physiological outcomes, rehabilitation interventions can address quality of life outcomes in order to improve well-being in a way that is meaningful to people with SCI.
