Is physiotherapy willing, ready and able to implement different models of care?
Physiotherapy as a profession has exponentially evolved over the past 20 years. In the case of musculoskeletal physiotherapy, the profession has moved from providing largely passive therapy (e.g. manual therapy and electrotherapy) that was therapist-centred to one where the approach to care is more active and patient-centred. This paradigm shift followed the introduction of evidence-based practice in the early 1990s. Clinicians were encouraged to implement the evidence, and change behaviour from their usual practice (e.g. dominance of electrotherapy) to provide different practices (e.g. targeted advice/exercise). Physiotherapy has embraced these changes and de-implemented some aspects of care while implementing others. As different models of care emerge, and we enter the next paradigm, I find that the question to answer is whether physiotherapy is willing, ready and able to implement different models of care. Using musculoskeletal conditions such as whiplash as an example, the journey has taken us to consider stratified care, yet there are still barriers to implementation. In this editorial, the ideal research design, and key barriers to address are suggested as ways forward. The paradigm of evidence-based care led us to consider that randomised controlled trials (and their synthesis (systematic reviews or clinical guidelines) became the highest form of evidence on which to base our practice.
