Abstract:

Clinical reasoning refers to the process in which practitioners, interacting with their patients, structure meaning, goals, and health management strategies based on clinical data, patient/client choices, and professional judgment and knowledge (Higgs & Jones, 2000, p. 11). Recent literature in physiotherapy and other allied health professions describes clinical reasoning as moving between cognitive and decision-making processes required to optimally diagnose and manage impairment and physical disabilities (hypothetic-deductive), and those required to understand and engage with patients' exper

Abstract:

Introduction The centrality of the patient to health care has been increasingly recognised both politically and professionally. Patient-centred care has become synonymous with high-quality care and a number of studies have reinforced patient's desire for, and the positive impact of the approach. Although the concept emerged over 30 years ago, it is still not clear what it is, upon what theories it is based, or how to measure it. Whilst the concept has been explored within medicine, nursing and other allied health professions, within physiotherapy there has only been minimal discussion. The aim

Abstract:

Background: Professional ballet dancers focus on the high levels of discipline, perfection and mobility to achieve the fluid, controlled lines of movement presented on the stage. Dancers undergo long hours of strenuous, repetitive training which increases the risk of developing overuse or traumatic injuries and may compromise the longevity of dancers' careers. Relevant research, particularly in the South African context, is needed to provide recommendations on the intrinsic and extrinsic factors contributing to musculoskeletal injuries in professional ballet dancers.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to identify the possible risk factors for the development of lower limb musculoskeletal injuries in novice runners. The specific objectives of this study were: (a) to describe the demographic and training characteristics of novice runners; (b) to establish the incidence of self-reported running-related injuries in novice runners; (c) to determine if specific intrinsic factors, namely age, gender, body mass index, quadriceps angle, foot alignment, hamstring flexibility, balance, muscle power and a history of previous injury were risk factors for lower limb musculoskele

Abstract:

Advancing clinical reasoning skills is one of the main outcomes of postgraduate master's level (M-level) programmes approved by the Musculoskeletal Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (MACP). While, the outcomes of these programmes were investigated in multiple retrospective studies, there is a limited understanding of the learning culture that drives change. Thus, the aim was to examine the learning culture of an MACP approved programme to capture the sociocultural mediators that advanced clinical reasoning skills. An empirical longitudinal mixed-methods theory-seeking case study was co

Abstract:

Abdominal pain of non-visceral origin has been recognised as a clinical entity for many years. In many gastroenterology clinics up to 50 per cent of patients attending have no pathological cause to their symptoms and such patients often become chronic attenders and suffer repeated investigation without resolution of their problem. They are often left with a label' of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (lBS) without a precise diagnosis being made. This is both unsatisfactory for the patient and physician. This study set out to determine the incidence of musculoskeletal causes of abdominal pain and to det

Abstract:

Motor imagery (MI) is a cognitive simulation technique with increasing importance in psychology, sport psychology and applied therapeutic domains (Dickstein & Deutsch, 2007; Guillot & Collet, 2008; Moran, Guillot, MacIntyre, & Collet, 2012). MI can be described as executing specific actions/tasks mentally, without any bodily movement, by adopting different sensory modalities (e.g. Collet & Guillot, 2010; Cumming & Ramsey, 2008; Jackson, Lafleur, Malouin, Richards, & Doyon, 2001). In the last two decades, a considerable amount of work has been performed to introduce MI as an effective rehabilit

Full text

Abstract:

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a heterogeneous disorder in which movement and posture are affected. Increased excitation of the central nervous system leads to neural symptoms, which can cause spasticity and muscle weakness. These neural abnormalities result in secondary CP-related mechanical adaptations of muscles and tendons, which can lead to muscle contracture, joint deformities and pain. Therapeutic interventions are therefore essential to treat CP-induced abnormalities. Passive stretching in particular is a popular treatment method in clinical practice. However, due to a lack of scientific evide

Abstract:

Rehabilitation following Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction (ACLR) benefits most patients electing ACLR surgery. Contemporary practice offers limited adaptation of the service to the needs of individual patients. This thesis focuses on a Randomised Control Trial (RCT) that evaluated the effects of a novel formulation of patient-centred musculoskeletal rehabilitation involving the Performance Profiling Technique (Butler and Hardy, 1992). Performance Profile Management (PPM), a programme of rehabilitation, was adapted to incorporate patient-physiotherapist negotiation and agreement

Abstract:

Background and need: Burn injuries are a major cause of hospital admission in low-income countries such as Zimbabwe and often lead to secondary complications such as disfigurements, contractures, and scar formations. The study aimed to establish “Guidelines for Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Impairments and Functional Limitations for Zimbabwe for Patients with Burns” based on the best evidence available. There were three good candidates for use as the source guideline, but ultimately, the Agency for Clinical Innovation (ACI) of New South Wales in Australia guidelines1 was chosen. The contex
