The composition of the triage team varies with some teams led by extended scope physiotherapists and other teams consisting of physiotherapists and primary care physicians with special interests in orthopaedics.
The training package was developed and delivered by a senior physiotherapist (Spinal Extended Scope Practitioner) with input from a musculoskeletal GPwSI, a consultant spinal orthopaedic surgeon, a consultant rheumatologist and a disability advisor.
Our results also highlight a few factors that are associated with PTs' interests in pursuing extended scope practice roles, such as a high arthritis caseload, having a positive attitude toward advanced clinical roles in arthritis care and toward the formal credentialing process, and recognizing the difference between certification and specialisation.
This study reports a randomised, pragmatic trial of equivalence comparing nurse practitioners and extended scope physiotherapists (ESPs) with the routine care provided by doctors managing minor injuries in the emergency department (ED).

Because of the fundamental nature of the topic, we have not only reviewed studies with mammals, but have extended the scope to work with other organisms, such as fish, invertebrates, and microorganisms.
Thus, suitably endowed triarylphosphines were found to be as efficient as more expensive aryldialkylphosphine analogs in reactions with chloroarenes, extending the scope of ligand design.
