While it is recognised that the associated change in life habits has changed their psychological well-being, quality of life also depends on physical well-being. This is particularly important for those with musculoskeletal conditions, such as spinal pain. Objectives: Recognising that spinal pain is a bio-psycho-social pathology, we developed a questionnaire to investigate potential associations between the level of disability caused by spinal pain (that arose or increased during the lockdown period) and the perception of the respondents with respect to the limitations of activities of daily living. Methods: In the absence of similar tools in the literature, a dedicated questionnaire tool was developed and piloted. It consists of 4 parts: two self-report questionnaires specially formulated for this study, and two already validated questionnaires. It was administered to 110 participants from 10 private rehabilitation facilities. All subjects were of age and had lumbar and/or cervical spine pain occurring before or during the lockdown period with non-traumatic etiopathogenesis. Results: The majority of participants perceived their spine pain as having arisen or increased during the lockdown period. The existence of a probable connection between this perception and the degree of disability at the time of the survey is confirmed by the contingency tables between this item of the second questionnaire and both disability scales which showed a statistically significant correlation. Conclusions: The survey tool was found to be valid in this population, and is recommended for further studies.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"151 - 157"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41991873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Literature is scarce on the current trends in physiotherapy-related anatomy education in Nigeria, making it difficult to identify specific areas that require improvement to enable effective teaching-learning processes. Objectives This cross-sectional study investigated the profile, commitment to, perceptions of relevance and challenges of anatomy education among undergraduate students of Nigerian physiotherapy training programmes. Methods Structured questionnaires, seeking information on knowledge and perceptions of anatomy education as well as its relevance to physiotherapy training and practice were distributed to 429 physiotherapy undergraduates. Results 350 questionnaires were completely filled and returned (81.6% response rate). Students’ anatomy profiles showed that majority of the students were exposed to anatomy education for 3–4 semesters (58.3%) with an average of one hour per lecture period (70.0%) which commonly comprised 401–600 students (58.0%). Despite that all the students reported exposure to dissection classes, only 11.7% reported adequate supervision of such classes. >50% of the students were aware of the relevance of anatomy education to physiotherapy training and practice. However, their commitment to anatomy education was generally poor. Major challenges of effective anatomy education included inadequate time for anatomy education (70.0%), large class size (67.1%) and non-supervision of dissection classes (22.6%). Age, gender and choice of physiotherapy as the primary intended course of study were not (p > 0.05) predictors of students’ commitment to anatomy education. Conclusion Physiotherapy undergraduates are aware of the relevance of anatomy education in physiotherapy training and practice. However, barriers of effective anatomy education were identified. Modifications in anatomy education are required for improved physiotherapy training.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"60 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44615822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Information including un-reflected experiences as an undigested burden is a challenge, for us, our students, and patients. Dewey [1] emphasized the importance of reflection to comprehend and learn. I believe we all need to take the time to share reflected insights in ways that may promote a ripple effect of knowledge building, reducing the undigested burden. Reading analyses by others may promote our internal reflection and thus learning. Research plays an important role as a source of information to support our professional educational endeavor, but also research have the risk of being looked at as information sharing only. As teachers, clinical supervisors, and researchers in education, we are invited to reflect on the research results in relation to our own context and experiences. To make our reflections more complex, we may also consider the lenses used for the information collection. As I have been wearing glasses almost all my life, I’m quite aware of the impact the use of different lenses has on information gathering (such as using reading glasses or regular glasses will dramatically change what I see from the same outlook). I think this also applies to our interpretation of research. Which lens we use when addressing a question will impact our reflections and understanding. Therefore, it is valuable that researchers provide us with information using various lenses. In the current issue, researchers in physiotherapy education help us by their use of different lenses, inviting us to gain a richer picture of learning and education.

The frequency of HSP has reduced in the last two decades which is most likely due to improved therapy and nursing care. The aim of this systematic literature review was to explore the risk and associated factors for HSP for studies published between 2005 and 2020. Methods A systematic online search was conducted of CINAHL, AMED, MEDLINE and the Cochrane library databases using four key terms (risk factors, hemiplegia, shoulder pain and stroke). The search was supplemented by hand searching of relevant journals and citation tracking of the retrieved papers. All primary studies published in English language fulfilling the review’s inclusion criteria were included. Five reviewers extracted the data and independently appraised the methodological quality of the selected studies. Any discrepancies were resolved following discussions. Results Of the 50 articles that were identified, 21 studies met the criteria. The common risk factors for HSP were: poor motor function (odds ratio (OR) 0.58–3.19; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.1–7.7); glenohumeral subluxation (OR 2.48–3.5, 95% CI 1.38–9.37) and reduced range of movement at the shoulder (OR 0.14–4.46, 95% CI 0.99–64). Conclusion Despite methodological flaws, complete loss of motor function in the affected arm and glenohumeral subluxation has been recognized as frequently reported risk factors for HSP. Further rigorously designed cohort studies are required to explore the risk factors for HSP.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"191 - 204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48795233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objectives This review aimed to investigate the reliability of palpatory examinations for pelvic landmarks. Methods A systematic search was undertaken using eight databases from inceptions to 2021 January 8th, to identify relevant primary studies. Methodological quality of included studies was evaluated using quality appraisal tool for studies of diagnostic reliability (QAREL). Data on kappa statistics were synthesized quantitatively. Results 10 papers were included. Six papers had moderate methodological quality (50–70% in QAREL). Four pelvic landmarks, including anterior superior iliac spine, posterior superior iliac spine, sacral sulcus or inferior lateral angle were examined. For both inter-rater and intra-rater reliability, kappa statistics were consistently lower than 0.60 regardless of examiners’ qualifications or experience levels, or standardisation trainings. As a result of meta-analyses, pooled kappa statics were consistently lower than 0.06 for all landmarks. Conclusions Consistent evidence was found to suggest that palpatory examinations of pelvic landmarks to detect pelvic asymmetry do not have an acceptable reliability. Therefore, the current evidence does not support the use of these tests in clinical or educational settings.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"181 - 190"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46174212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Post-transplant management involves being physically active, although evidence for the effect of exercise is limited. Objective To assess the effects of exercise training interventions in KTRs. Methods NCBI PubMed (MEDLINE) and CENTRAL (EMBASE, WHO ICTRP) databases were searched up to March 2021 to identify eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that studied exercise training in adult KTRs. Outcomes included exercise capacity, strength, blood pressure, body composition, heart rate, markers of dyslipidaemia and renal function, and health-related quality of life (QoL). Results Sixteen RCTs, containing 827 KTRs, were included. The median intervention length was 14-weeks with participants exercising between 2–7x/week. Most studies used a mixture of aerobic and resistance exercise. Significant improvements were observed in cardiorespiratory function (VO2peak) (3.21 ml/kg/min, p = 0.003), 6MWT (76.3 meters, p = 0.009), physical function (STS-60, 4.8 repetitions, p = 0.04), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (0.13 mg/dL, p = 0.03). A moderate increase in maximum heart rate was seen (p = 0.06). A moderate reduction in creatinine was also observed (0.14 mg/dl, p = 0.05). Isolated studies reported improvements in strength, bone health, lean mass, and QoL. Overall, studies had high risk of bias suggestive of publication bias. Conclusions Exercise training may confer several benefits in adult KTRs, particularly by increasing cardiorespiratory function and exercise capacity, strength, HDL levels, maximum heart rate, and improving QoL. Additional long-term large sampled RCTs, incorporating complex interventions requiring both exercise and dietary behaviour change, are needed to fully understand the effects of exercise in KTRs.","PeriodicalId":46541,"journal":{"name":"Physical Therapy Reviews","volume":"27 1","pages":"114 - 134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43630053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, little is known about the faculty development needs of physical therapy adjuncts (casuals, contingent, non-tenured, sessional). Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the highest-rated faculty development needs identified by physical therapy adjuncts who teach only in the classroom (‘classroom adjuncts’) to those who only teach in clinical placements (‘clinical adjuncts’). Methods Using a cross-sectional, web-based survey, perceived faculty development needs were compared among classroom adjuncts (n = 14) and clinical adjuncts (n = 18) using a Likert scale. Analysis included identifying highest-rated needs (i.e., > 75% agreement) for each group and t-tests to determine if highest-rated needs were significantly different between groups. Results Six of the highest-rated needs of classroom adjuncts were, not surprisingly, focused on needs within the classroom. Four of the highest-rated needs of clinical adjuncts were specific to this group and three were significantly different from classroom adjuncts – mentoring students and peers, learning how to deal with common challenges within teaching, (e.g., diversity, dishonesty, disability and struggling students), and using simulation and skills training. Highest-rated needs of clinical adjuncts appeared to be focused on effective communication with diverse students and how to build a co-operative learning environment that facilitates the students’ own initiatives to learn.
