Prior to developing a predictive model for the outcome of physiotherapy treatment for shoulder pain, a large adequately powered cohort study is required in which a broad range of prognostic factors are incorporated.
To date there has been no study that has directly compared dose and content-matched group versus individual models of functional, goal-directed physiotherapy rehabilitation following lower limb BoNT-A injections for ambulant children with CP.
The new models of care involving advanced physiotherapy practice (APP) are ultimately aimed at improving access to care, with equal or better effectiveness, while containing costs and retaining patient and other health care provider satisfaction [ 8, 12, 13].
The intervention model aimed to provide an intensive, but limited period of physiotherapy within the frame of the children's local environment.
However, evidence of the systematic evaluation of advance physiotherapy practice (APP) models of care is scarce.
Within physiotherapy settings, different models of care exist for the delivery of LBP interventions.
Content experts developed initial versions of the curricular modules covering the four primary areas of Physiotherapy practice using the DACUM (Developing a Curriculum) model [ 23].
Two treatment models have been described in the literature, both of which are applicable within the field of physiotherapy.
Studies investigating the efficacy of physiotherapy combined with BoNT-A injections have consistently included therapy delivered in an individual model.
Intervention: Any form of physiotherapy treatment.
I am also doing a course of physiotherapy.
