Abstract

Purpose: To describe the practices of pediatric physical therapists (PTs) working with children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) in Brazil.

Methods: PTs working with children and adolescents with CP were invited to participate via social media and email campaigns to complete an online survey containing 46 questions.

Results: In total, 373 PTs participated. Most PTs reported searching in scientific databases (96.8%) and on social media (71%). The main barrier to information reported was limited access to full-text articles (44%). Among the PTs, 58.4% and 84% reported using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and family centered practice models, respectively. Regarding tools and interventions, there was little focus on the domains of contextual factors and participation.

Conclusions: This survey points to some important advances. However, strategies are still needed to promote knowledge translation and evidence-based practices among pediatric PTs in Brazil.

巴西辅助脑瘫患者的物理治疗师的工作方法：全国调查。

目的：描述巴西儿科物理治疗师（PTs）为患有脑瘫（CP）的儿童和青少年提供治疗的实践情况：方法：通过社交媒体和电子邮件活动，邀请为患有脑瘫的儿童和青少年提供服务的理疗师参与完成一项包含 46 个问题的在线调查：共有 373 名康复治疗师参与了调查。大多数康复治疗师报告说他们在科学数据库（96.8%）和社交媒体（71%）上进行了搜索。据报告，获取信息的主要障碍是获取全文文章的途径有限（44%）。在康复治疗师中，分别有 58.4% 和 84% 的人表示使用了《国际功能、残疾和健康分类》（ICF）和以家庭为中心的实践模式。在工具和干预措施方面，很少有人关注环境因素和参与领域：本次调查显示了一些重要的进展。结论：这项调查指出了一些重要的进展，但仍需要制定战略，以促进巴西儿科护理人员的知识转化和循证实践。

期刊介绍： Pediatric Physical Therapy is an indexed international journal, that publishes peer reviewed research related to the practice of physical therapy for children with movement disorders. The editorial board is comprised of an international panel of researchers and clinical scholars that oversees a rigorous peer review process. The journal serves as the official journal for the pediatric physical therapy professional organizations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. The journal includes articles that support evidenced based practice of physical therapy for children with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory and developmental conditions that lead to disorders of movement, and research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of pediatric physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics and pediatric exercise science to neurodevelopmental science. To these ends the journal publishes original research articles, systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions that further the science of physical therapy, clinical guidelines and case reports that describe unusual conditions or cutting edge interventions with sound rationale. The journal adheres to the ethical standards of theInternational Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
