Abstract

With the COVID-19 pandemic, the adoption of telerehabilitation has rapidly increased to improve access and minimize cross-infection risk to patients. Nevertheless, Filipino pediatric physical therapists (PTs) must ensure that they conduct evidence-based procedures for specific tests and measures to determine patient outcomes. This investigation reported the most common pediatric outcome measurement tools (OMTs) used in telerehabilitation by Filipino pediatric PTs treating 0 to 21-year-olds in the Philippines. Validation and pilot testing of an adapted questionnaire on OMT usage was undertaken before dissemination via email and social media. Pediatric PTs reported that the commonly used OMTs in telerehabilitation are Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) (100%)—including both versions of GMFM-88 and GMFM-66 followed by Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS) (30%). These findings support the use of feasible OMTs in pediatric telerehabilitation due to their applicability in the online setting.

菲律宾儿童物理治疗远程康复常用的结果测量工具:一项定量横断面描述性研究

随着COVID-19大流行，远程康复的采用迅速增加，以改善可及性并最大限度地减少患者的交叉感染风险。尽管如此，菲律宾的儿童物理治疗师(PTs)必须确保他们对特定的测试和措施进行循证程序，以确定患者的结果。本调查报告了菲律宾儿童PTs在远程康复治疗中使用的最常见的儿科结果测量工具(OMTs)。在通过电子邮件和社交媒体传播之前，对一份关于OMT使用情况的改编问卷进行了验证和试点测试。儿科PTs报告远程康复中常用的omt是大运动功能测量(GMFM)(100%) -包括GMFM-88和GMFM-66两个版本，其次是儿童平衡量表(PBS)(30%)。这些发现支持在儿童远程康复中使用可行的omt，因为它们适用于在线环境。
