Study Notes

Standards of Physical Therapy Practice

Adheres to current legislation, applying research findings to practice and being responsible for the direction of physical therapy services in the clinic.
Physical therapists participate in the education of physical therapy students and other allied health professions.
PT practice parameters set quality standards and evaluation criteria.
Patients are received upon referral from a licensed health professional.
Intervention is discontinued when goals are met, the patient refuses, or they are unable to continue receiving care.
Physical therapists use assessment and evaluation results to determine diagnoses and develop intervention plans based on these results.
Interventions are implemented in collaboration with team members.
Physical therapists provide clients with information regarding the intervention plan, including effectiveness, risks, and alternatives.
Plans of care are modified as needed throughout the duration of care and reassessed regularly.
The Philippine Physical Therapy Association is the professional body representing physical therapists.
Transdisciplinary collaboration involving other professionals is acceptable when within the scope of practice of the provider.
Services can be categorized as primary, secondary, or tertiary depending on the facility's focus and referral basis.
Patient /client management follows typical steps: examination, evaluation, diagnosis, prognosis, intervention.
Multidisciplinary care is focused on each discipline's unique activity, without lateral communication between disciplines, unless a doctor consults another professional for specific instruction or requests.
Professionals in the rehabilitation team include physicians, (at least) 7 members, all consulted in decision-making with lateral communication.

Professional Behaviors Expected in PT

Communication skills, problem-solving skills, responsibility, and effective use of time and resources are expected behaviors in PTs.
Commitment to learning, including research on areas where knowledge is lacking.
Interpersonal skills, stress management support network, feedback, and critical thinking are additional expected behaviors.
Workshops for professionalism development are beneficial.

ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health) Model

Provides a coherent view of health perspectives, including the biological, individual, and social aspects (Biopsychosocial model).
Qualifiers (in ICF) record the presence and severity of problems in body functions, personal and societal levels of functioning.
ICF Usage defines the effective use of resources for economic analyses, including social security, employment, education, and transportation.
ICF provides a framework for classifying and understanding health and health-related states, and for evaluating the impact of interventions/procedures.
ICF Function: reduces the incidence and severity of disability and enhance functional capacity by modifying social and physical environments, allowing for impact of interventions to be recorded.
ICF Disability Classification: views disability as a result of illness, trauma, and other health conditions.
ICF model includes the medical model and the social model, recognizing that disabilities have implications for political and societal response.
Data collected in the ICF framework is consistent and internationally comparable.

Case Analysis (L.V. with CVA)

L.V. is a 45-year-old male patient diagnosed with asymptomatic HPN, (L) CVA, and (R) hemiplegia.
Upper extremity is more affected than the lower one.
Patient reports pain (5/10) in (R) shoulder, swelling in (R) hand, difficulty moving (R) limb, especially during household chores (related to spasticity of musculature).

Various vital signs and definitions (e.g., afebrile, bradycardia, orthostatic hypotension, etc.).
Definitions of different types of fever, including low-grade, high-grade, and relapsing.
Body systems affected by different medical conditions.

Psychosocial Issues
