Editorial Commentary: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Patients Must Be Provided With Both Motivation and Tools to Continue Physical Therapy, Supervised or Independently, Beyond the Early Recovery Phase.

Arthroscopy : the journal of arthroscopic & related surgery : official publication of the Arthroscopy Association of North America and the International Arthroscopy Association
Given the current American health insurance environment, many patients do not access physical therapy in the mid and later stages of recovery from anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This trend is well established in the literature and s...

Use of machine learning to identify prognostic variables for outcomes in chronic low back pain treatment: a retrospective analysis.

The Journal of manual & manipulative therapy
OBJECTIVES: Most patients seen in physical therapy (PT) clinics for low back pain (LBP) are treated for chronic low back pain (CLBP), yet PT interventions suggest minimal effectiveness. The Cochrane Back Review Group proposed 'Holy Grail' questions, ...

Machine learning methods in physical therapy: A scoping review of applications in clinical context.

Musculoskeletal science & practice
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) efficiently processes large datasets, showing promise in enhancing clinical practice within physical therapy.

Advanced rehabilitation in ischaemic stroke research.

Stroke and vascular neurology
At present, due to the rapid progress of treatment technology in the acute phase of ischaemic stroke, the mortality of patients has been greatly reduced but the number of disabled survivors is increasing, and most of them are elderly patients. Physic...

Physical therapists' perceptions and attitudes towards artificial intelligence in healthcare and rehabilitation: A qualitative study.

Musculoskeletal science & practice
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is being introduced to rehabilitation practices, and it can optimize the patient's outcome through their ability to design personalized care strategies and interventions.

Therapists' perspective on acceptance of robot-assisted physical rehabilitation in a middle-income country: a study from Vietnam.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
Robot-assisted physical rehabilitation offers promising benefits for patients, yet its adoption among therapists remains a complex challenge. This study investigates the acceptance of robot-assisted physical rehabilitation technology among therapists...

Treatment with robot-assisted gait trainer Walkbot along with physiotherapy vs. isolated physiotherapy in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy. Experimental study.

BMC neurology
BACKGROUND: Improving walking ability is a key objective in the treatment of children and adolescents with cerebral palsy, since it directly affects their activity and participation. In recent years, robotic technology has been implemented in gait tr...

Large language models in physical therapy: time to adapt and adept.

Frontiers in public health
Healthcare is experiencing a transformative phase, with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). Physical therapists (PTs) stand on the brink of a paradigm shift in education, practice, and research. Rather than visualizing AI as a thr...

Effects of robot-assisted gait training using the Welwalk on gait independence for individuals with hemiparetic stroke: an assessor-blinded, multicenter randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Gait disorder remains a major challenge for individuals with stroke, affecting their quality of life and increasing the risk of secondary complications. Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has emerged as a promising approach for improving...
