The research question – How is physiotherapy practice experienced through physiotherapy education? – considers why physiotherapy curriculum needs to transform. At the same time students’ expectations of their educational experience are shifting, communities and the healthcare workforce have changing expectations of physiotherapy graduates too. While physiotherapy curriculum has evolved, these factors challenge the profession to conceptualise ‘preparation for practice’ in new ways.

Abstract:
Bakgrund  Fysisk aktivitet under skoltid är av stor vikt då barn och ungdomar rör sig allt mindre. Skolans elevhälsa, däribland skolsköterskor, arbetar med främjandet av fysisk aktivitet i skolan. Studier kring hur en fysioterapeut kan verka inom elevhälsan är idag begränsade. Hur skolsköterskor uppfattar att en fysioterapeut kan bidra i skolhälsoarbetet var därför av intresse att undersöka. Syfte  Att undersöka skolsköterskors uppfattning om behovet av en fysioterapeut inom skolverksamheten, samt undersöka vad de anser har betydelse för att främja fysisk aktivitet i skolan.  Metod Studien v

Abstract:
Introduktion: Pediatrisk fysioterapi kräver teoretiska kunskaper, klinisk färdighet och ett etiskt förhållningssätt i behandling av patienter. Det finns lite forskning gjord kring vilken slags kompetens och vilket arbetssätt som ger ett professionellt omhändertagande av patient och familj. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva fysioterapeuters erfarenhet av sitt arbete inom pediatrisk sluten – och öppenvård. Metod: En kvalitativ design med innehållsanalys valdes som analysmetod för studien. Datainsamling genomfördes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer av 14 fysioterapeuter som arbetade ino

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore how physiotherapists working in stroke care understand their role(s) in the context of clinical practice and how this is mediated by their post-licensure educational experiences. Specifically the study focused on their experiences with the Bobath Concept, a well-developed post-licensure neurology physiotherapy program. This study was oriented within sociocultural theory as a way to understand how the experiences and interactions of physiotherapists mediate their professional practice and their sense of professional identity in a way not previously stu

Abstract:
Pulmonary rehabilitation, consisting of exercise training and education, is one of the most effective strategies for improving the health outcomes of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and reducing associated healthcare costs. Prior to the work presented in this thesis a description of the structure and content of pulmonary rehabilitation programs in Australia had not been published. In addition, whether existing programs met Australian recommendations for practice such as those contained in the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Toolkit, was unknown. Despite the significant benefi

Abstract:
La profession de masseur kinésithérapeute est officiellement née le 30 avril 1946. A partir de la fin du 19e siècle, le massage, la kinésithérapie, la gymnastique ayant pénétré le champ de la médecine et la loi du 30 novembre 1892 confié aux médecins le monopole de l’ensemble des techniques de soins, ceux-ci vont faire appel à des auxiliaires dont ils auront assurés la formation préalable pour mieux les contrôler. La guerre de 1914-1918 « fléau social » va assurer la promotion empirique de ces méthodes. L’absence de masseurs professionnels ayant limité le bénéfice de ces pratiques, le corps mé
