042 Classification Systems for Chronic LBP
05/09/2014 Duración: 53minIn Episode 42 we look at classification systems for treating chronic low back pain with specific exercise. Do they matter? Are we overthinking things? What exactly are we treating?
-
041 Rectangular Tunnels for ACLR
16/08/2014 Duración: 28minIn Episode 41 we look at a comparing a rectangular-shaped tunnel with a traditional transtibial round-shaped tunnels for ACL reconstruction. Does a rectangular tunnel require less graft tension? While this restore more natural kinematics after ACL reconstruction? Is this combining the best of both worlds? Will JW make a bad joke somewhere?
-
040 ACLR Technique and Kinematic Forces
10/08/2014 Duración: 41minIn Episode 40 we look at a comparing the transtibial (TT) and the anteriomedial portal (AMP) techniques for ACL reconstruction and their effect on femoral tunnel orientation and subsequent postoperative knee joint kinematics. Does technique matter? Are the differences clinically relevant?
-
039 Hip Spine Syndrome
01/08/2014 Duración: 31minIn Episode 39 we look at a systematic review that explores the idea of Hip-Spine Syndrome. What is that? Is lumbar spine disease a contra-indication for hip surgery? Or maybe it is an indication?
-
038 Normal Landing Mechanics
25/07/2014 Duración: 37minIn Episode 38 we look at a systematic review that tries to define "normal" mechanics for preventing ACL tears. Does that exist? How slippery is this idea of "normal"?
-
Hip Strength and PFP
04/07/2014 Duración: 01h59sIn Episode 37 we look at hip strength as a predictor of patellofemoral pain (PFP). Can we say that hip weakness causes PFP? What do we really know about this enigmatic condition?
-
IASTM and ROM Changes
27/06/2014 Duración: 01h05minIn Episode 36 we look at changes in range of motion after IASTM. Is it really doing anything to the tissue itself? What evidence is there really behind these tool assisted treatments?
-
Quad Strengthening For PFPS
20/06/2014 Duración: 01h03minIn Episode 35 we look at the role of quadriceps strengthening exercises on patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). Is it really effective? What role does it play during rehab?
-
Incidence of 2nd ACL Injury
13/06/2014 Duración: 50minIn Episode 34 we look at the incidence of second ACL injuries two years after primary ACL reconstruction. How often to patients that return to sports re-tear their ACL? What about the contra-lateral side? Can we do anything about this?
-
FMS and Performance
06/06/2014 Duración: 01h09minIn Episode 33 we look at the relationship of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) in-line lunge to power, speed, and balance measures. Why is this question being asked? Does the intended function of a test matter? How are professionals using movement screens?
-
PT and Hip OA
30/05/2014 Duración: 01h07minIn Episode 32 we look at the effect of physical therapy on pain and function in patients with hip osteoarthritis. Is your knee-jerk reaction to get defensive? Let's explore the history of this question and what the science really says.
-
Biochemical Markers After Manipulations
23/05/2014 Duración: 49minIn Episode 31 we look at biochemical markers of pain and stress after manipulations. Are these effects specific or merely objective? Does it need to do more than provide temporary analgesia?
-
Therapeutic Alliance
16/05/2014 Duración: 42minIn Episode 30 we look at the effects of therapeutic alliance on outcomes involving treatments with no known specific effects.
-
Episode 29: ACLR Active Flexion Deficit and Bundling
28/12/2013 Duración: 31minIn Episode 29 we look at limited active knee flexion as a predictor of function after hamstring ACLR and comparing long term function of double- vs single-bundle ACLR.
-
Episode 28: Injury Prevention
02/11/2013 Duración: 36minIn Episode 28 we discuss the differences between specific effects and objective changes - not the same thing. We also look at the following article on injury prevention programs.
-
Episode 27: Dry Needling
12/10/2013 Duración: 50minThis episode discusses dry needling and the difficulty in controlling for placebos. http://ptpodcast.com/pt-inquest/

Episode 26: Research Needs
24/09/2013 Duración: 53minThis episode looks at the current research needs and the kinds of questions that should be answered.
