Abstract

To explore whether participating in the BEEP trial training programme (ISRCTN93634563) increased physiotherapists' self-confidence, and changed their intended clinical behaviour, regarding exercise for knee pain in older adults. Before/after training programme evaluation. Physiotherapists were asked to complete a questionnaire before the BEEP trial training programme, immediately afterwards, and 12-18 months later (post-intervention delivery in the BEEP trial). The questionnaire included a case vignette and associated clinical management questions. Questionnaire responses were compared over time and between physiotherapists trained to deliver each intervention within the BEEP trial. Primary care. 53 physiotherapists who completed the BEEP trial training programme. NA MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: 1. Self-confidence in the diagnosis and management of knee pain in older adults, 2. intended clinical behaviour measured by a case vignette and associated clinical management questions. 52 (98%) physiotherapists returned the pre-training questionnaire, 44 (85%) and 39 (74%) returned the post-training and post-intervention questionnaires respectively. Post-training, self-confidence in managing older adults with knee pain increased, and intended clinical behaviour regarding exercise for knee pain in older adults appeared more in line with clinical guidelines. However, not all positive changes were maintained in the longer-term. Participating in the BEEP trial training programme increased physiotherapists' self-confidence and changed their intended clinical behaviour regarding exercise for knee pain but by 12-18 months later, some of these positive changes were lost. This suggests that brief training programmes are useful, but additional strategies are likely to be needed to successfully maintain changes in clinical behaviour over time.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 July 2017.
All research outputs
#14,387,928
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
#3,763
of 6,026 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#206,909
of 416,155 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
#35
of 65 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,026 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 416,155 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 65 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
