RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess the perceptions, barriers, and facilitators of sustaining the use of outcome measures of physical and occupational therapists following a three-year knowledge translation intervention. METHODS: A phenomenological qualitative study was conducted at an inpatient rehabilitation hospital on 13 clinicians (6 physical therapists and 7 occupational therapists) participating in the knowledge translation intervention. Data collection used semi-structured interviewing during three focus groups to understand the lived experience of clinicians participating in the knowledge translation project. Data were analyzed using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) codebook. RESULTS: Two investigators coded twelve CFIR constructs into barriers and facilitators for outcome measure use. Four key themes emerged as determinants for outcome measures use: (1) Organizational support and clinician engagement; (2) the knowledge translation intervention; (3) the outcome measures themselves; and (4) the patients. Clinicians reported using outcome measures for patient education, treatment planning, and goal setting, while they found other outcome measures lacked functional significance. Facilitators included organizational support, access to knowledge, ongoing training, and clinician engagement. Ongoing barriers included the need for more training and the need to select different tests. CONCLUSIONS: This study found proper selection of outcomes measures is important and attributed the sustainability of the knowledge translation intervention to organizational support, clinician engagement and ongoing training. The clinicians wanted continued training to overcome new barriers. Barriers identified in this study were unique to the typical barriers identified for outcome measure use. Ongoing barrier assessments are needed for continued refinement of knowledge translation interventions to enhance sustainability.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Active video gaming (AVG) is used in physical therapy (PT) to treat individuals with a variety of diagnoses across the lifespan. The literature supports improvements in balance, cardiovascular endurance, and motor control; however, evidence is lacking regarding the implementation of AVG in PT education. This study investigated doctoral physical therapy (DPT) students' confidence following active exploration of AVG systems as a PT intervention in the United States. METHODS: This pretest-posttest study included 60 DPT students in 2017 (cohort 1) and 55 students in 2018 (cohort 2) enrolled in a problem-based learning curriculum. AVG systems were embedded into patient cases and 2 interactive laboratory classes across 2 consecutive semesters (April­December 2017 and April­December 2018). Participants completed a 31-question survey before the intervention and 8 months later. Students' confidence was rated for general use, game selection, plan of care, set-up, documentation, setting, and demographics. Descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to compare differences in confidence pre- and post-intervention. RESULTS: Both cohorts showed increased confidence at the post-test, with median (interquartile range) scores as follows: cohort 1: pretest, 57.1 (44.3­63.5); post-test, 79.1 (73.1­85.4); and cohort 2: pre-test, 61.4 (48.0­70.7); post-test, 89.3 (80.0­93.2). Cohort 2 was significantly more confident at baseline than cohort 1 (P<0.05). In cohort 1, students' data were paired and confidence levels significantly increased in all domains: use, Z=-6.2 (P<0.01); selection, Z=-5.9 (P<0.01); plan of care, Z=-6.0 (P<0.01); set-up, Z=-5.5 (P<0.01); documentation, Z=-6.0 (P<0.01); setting, Z=-6.3 (P<0.01); and total score, Z=-6.4 (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Structured, active experiences with AVG resulted in a significant increase in students' confidence. As technology advances in healthcare delivery, it is essential to expose students to these technologies in the classroom.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Outcome measures (OMs) have been emphasized by healthcare professions to optimize patient examination; however, a lack of regular use of OMs exists. The purpose of this study was to describe the outcome of a knowledge translation (KT) intervention to increase the use of OMs by physical therapists in an inpatient rehabilitation setting. METHODS: A quasi-experimental pre-post study design was used. A multi-component KT intervention including education, organizational support, documentation, and environmental changes to increase the use of five OMs was implemented. Audit and feedback (A&F) was added to the KT intervention at month 6. Documented use of OMs was determined through manual chart audit (n = 864) and electronically (n = 2599). Regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with OMs use across time and diagnoses. RESULTS: Following the addition of A&F to the KT intervention at month 6, there was a significant increase in the odds of OMs use across all time intervals (months 6-12, 12-18, 18-24)(Odds Ratio (OR) 5.9, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 4.1-8.5; OR 8.5, 95% CI 6.0-12.1; OR 10.8, 95% CI 7.6-15). There was also a significant increase in the odds of documenting OMs on individuals with neurological diagnoses (OR 0.3, 95% CI 0.5-0.8). CONCLUSIONS: This KT intervention increased and sustained OMs use over 24-months. This intervention can be replicated to improve the evidence-based practices of physical therapists.
