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.

Thus, the aim was to examine the learning culture of an MACP approved programme to capture the sociocultural mediators that advanced clinical reasoning skills.

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.

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).

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:

Patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) are known to develop significant impairments in physical function. Patients with critical illness suffer up to 30% reductions in muscle size within the first ten days of admission to the ICU. Muscle strength testing, Medical Research Council-sum score, is current gold-standard to diagnosis ICU-acquired weakness and predicts risk of mortality and long-term physical function. Muscle power different from muscle strength in that it accounts for velocity of movement, is potentially a better independent predictor of function that has not been studied in

Els fisioterapeutes (FTs) tenen el risc de patir trastorns musculoesquelètics d'origen laboral en coll i extremitats superiors (TMOLCES). El propòsit d'aquest estudi transversal va ser determinar la prevalença de TMOLCES en els FTs de Catalunya, investigar les associacions entre TMOLCES i àrees anatòmiques, i aspectes demogràfics i laborals dels FTs, le seves respostes i els factor de risc laboral percebuts com a causes de TMOLCES. Es va trobar una prevalença de vida de TMOLCES de 87,3%; de 12 mesos, de 81,9%, i la puntual, de 65,94%. El 57,4% dels menors de 30 anys es van lesionar en el

Abstract:

Masters Research - Master of Medical Science<br>Pattern recognition is a non-analytical clinical reasoning process which has been reported in the medical and allied health literature for some time. At a time when clinical problem solving was largely considered to consist of the analytical process of hypothetico-deductive reasoning, pattern recognition was introduced in the literature with observations of greater efficiency and accuracy. The research that followed these apparent opposing models of clinical reasoning resulted in significant growth in the understanding of problem solving in healt

Magister Scientiae (Physiotherapy) - MSc(Physio)<br>Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD’s) and sports injuries are commonly sustained throughout the world daily. They are dominant in many countries, with considerable cost involvement and impact on quality of life. For this reason they need to be recognised as a necessary part of general practice. MSD’s refer to a wide variety of diseases and disorders of the musculoskeletal system, such as degenerative and inflammatory conditions (arthritis), spinal and soft tissue disorders, osteoporosis and musculoskeletal injury.

Allsop and Ackland (2010) in their study describe that pianists suffer from MS disorders in 42 %. However, the prevalence of MS disorders differs depending on the region. There has not been done yet any evaluation of prevalence of MS disorders in pianists in Czech republic. This evaluation is crutial to make a comparison of our national results internationally. Furthermore, it is required to establish well-prepared preventional program for starting pianists. Aims: The p

Problématique : La quantification de l’intégrité du tendon d’Achille (TA) représente un défi en réadaptation. L’adoption de mesures quantitatives du TA, extraites à partir d’une image ultrasonographique (QUS), pourrait remédier à cette lacune. Objectifs : 1) Évaluer la fiabilité test-retest et la précision de mesures QUS du TA; 2) Déterminer le meilleur protocole de collecte de mesures QUS à employer en pratique clinique. Méthodologie : Un total de 23 TAs présentant des symptômes d’une tendinopathie achilléenne et 63 TAs asymptomatiques ont été évalués. Pour chaque TA, 8 images ont été enregis
