- •
A COS is a consensus-based set of outcomes for research or clinical practice.
- •
Consensus should be achieved by multiple stakeholders on domains and instruments.
- •
A longstanding COS for low back pain was recently updated and is ready for use.
- •
COSs for chronic pain (in general) and osteoarthritis are also available.
- •
Little research is done on COSs for other areas relevant to physical therapy.
- •
Continuity of care is a multidimensional construct.
- •
Three types of continuity are relevant for inpatients receiving rehabilitation.
- •
Management continuity is the component with the most negative experiences.
- •
Most problems experienced by the participants are aspects that can be modified.
- •
This study challenges the notion that TENS can only be applied at the site of pain.
- •
The study supports the use of TENS in patients with significant skin injuries.
- •
This helps to understand the action of TENS in edema.
- •
Measured and estimated VO2peak in CHF patients showed a moderate association.
- •
With the exception of equation 1, all equations underestimated VO2peak by up to 51%.
- •
The agreement evaluated using Bland–Altman was not consistent.
- •
The occurrence of shoulder pain in young people is high and is associated with older adolescents.
- •
Handball and judo increase the prevalence of shoulder pain, when compared with other sports.
- •
Adolescents with shoulder pain had lower joint function and mobility.
- •
Physical therapists lack knowledge in palliative care.
- •
Need of general training for physical therapists in palliative.
- •
Physical therapists have an intuitive character regarding palliative care treatment.
- •
The FAI had three dimensions.
- •
The items of dimension 1 of the FAI showed adequate fit to the model.
- •
The FAI can be used in clinical practice and research.
- •
The velocity of popliteal artery flow remained unchanged with MWD and increased with SWD, remaining above baseline even 20min after application.
- •
Despite changes in blood flow velocity, no correlation was found between the temperature variation and arterial blood flow.
- •
SWD and MWD both increase skin temperature, but only SWD increased it for over 20min after the end of application.
- •
The temperature was greater in the areas under the MWD and SWD electrodes.
- •
The position of the knee interfered with the skin temperature of the hamstring only after 10min of SWD application.
- •
Intense physical activity can lead to higher levels of PFP.
- •
Asymptomatic women were not influenced by the PFJ loading protocol.
- •
The PFJ loading protocol has the capability to equalize pain in women with PFP.
- •
Dual tasks can be applicable to assess elderly with mild Alzheimer's disease.
- •
Patients with preserved cognition and mild cognitive impairment presented with similar mobility.
- •
Specific local and consequences of falls were identified for each cognitive group.
