Study Notes
ICF Framework
- ICF framework classifies functioning and disability by analyzing body functions, activity limitations, and participation restrictions.
- This framework guides physical therapy interventions.
Patient/Client Management
- Examination: Determines the patient's condition.
- Evaluation: Interprets findings and diagnoses.
- Diagnosis: Identifies issues needing physical therapy.
- Prognosis (and care plan): Predicts improvement and outlines a plan.
- Intervention: Specific therapeutic procedures to achieve goals.
- PTAs perform interventions under PT supervision.
Scope of Practice
- The scope includes examination, evaluation, diagnosis and prognosis.
- Alleviates impairments through therapy.
- Prevents injuries and promotes health.
- Involves consultation, education, critical inquiry, and administration.
- Scope defines the activities and procedures PTs are authorized to perform.
Vision 2020
-
Vision 2020 targets autonomous practice, direct access, preferred practitioner status.
-
It also aims for a doctor of PT degree, evidence-based practice, and professionalism.
-
These elements shape the PT role in healthcare.
-
PTAs assist with treatment within the care plan but cannot perform tasks such as sharp debridement, dry needling, or spinal mobilization.
-
PT aides support non-clinical tasks without requiring PT/PTA judgment.
Louisiana PT Board
- The Louisiana PT Board enforces regulations, establishes standards, and disciplines violators.
Research Phases
- Develop a question: The initial research step.
- Design a study: Outlining the research approach.
- Implement planning: Executing the research.
- Analyze and interpret data: Evaluating results.
- Create the report: Documenting the findings.
Research Article Components
- Abstract, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, and conclusion.
Research Types
- Basic Research: Expands fundamental knowledge.
- Applied Research: Aims at solving practical problems.
- Experimental Research: Manipulates variables to find cause-effect relationships.
- Non-Experimental Research: Observational, without intervention.
Research Methods
-
Quantitative Research: Focuses on numerical data, hypothesis testing.
-
Qualitative Research: Explores phenomena, generating descriptive data.
-
Reliability: Consistency of results.
-
Validity: Accuracy in measuring intended aspects.
Evidence-Informed Practice (EIP)
- Combines research evidence, clinical expertise, and patient values to inform care decisions.
HIPAA
- Privacy Rule: Governs the use and disclosure of Protected Health Information (PHI).
- Security Rule: Protects PHI, especially electronically stored information.
