Evaluating Wall-Mounted Prompts to Facilitate Physical Activity-Related Discussion between Individuals with Cancer and Oncology Health Care Providers: A Pre-post Survey Study
CONCLUSIONS: Wall-mounted prompts may be effective in increasing the frequency of PA-related discussions between individuals with cancer and their oncology team across treatment. Additional strategies, such as easy referral to rehabilitation professionals, are also needed to facilitate safe and effective PA behaviour during and after cancer treatments.PMID:38465300 | PMC:PMC10919365 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2023-0046 (Source: Physiotherapy Canada)

Development of an Algorithm to Screen for Frailty Using the Clinical Frailty Scale with Postoperative Patients Entering Cardiac Rehabilitation
CONCLUSIONS: Current intake documentation in CR limited the ability to retrospectively screen for frailty. This finding suggests a need for a frailty-specific tool to support routine clinical screening. Prospective evaluation of the CFS-CR is warranted to further examine the clinical utility of the algorithm during CR intake assessments.PMID:38465304 | PMC:PMC10919360 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2021-0098 (Source: Physiotherapy Canada)

Accessibility of Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy for Treating Urinary Incontinence in Older Women in Quebec: An Online Survey
CONCLUSIONS: The accessibility of UI care in Quebec appears hampered by the limited availability of pelvic floor PT treatments, mainly in public settings, and potential financial constraints. Providing pelvic floor PT to groups could constitute a promising avenue to tackle both issues. Future studies should look at ways of implementing this option.PMID:38465310 | PMC:PMC10919363 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2021-0089 (Source: Physiotherapy Canada)

Educators' Perspectives on the Teaching and Learning of Type 2 Diabetes Content in Physiotherapy Programmes across Canada
CONCLUSIONS: Educators noted challenges integrating more T2D content in the curriculum and said that PT clinical contributions for people living with T2D are underutilized. Additional evidence-informed rationale is needed to explore optimal integration of T2D content in PT programmes.PMID:38465311 | PMC:PMC10919371 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2021-0045 (Source: Physiotherapy Canada)
