Misconceptions and the Acceptance of Evidence-based Nonsurgical Interventions for Knee Osteoarthritis. A Qualitative Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Common misconceptions about knee OA appear to influence patients' acceptance of nonsurgical, evidence-based treatments such as exercise and weight loss. Once the participants in this study had been "diagnosed" with "bone-on-bone" changes, many disregarded exercise-based interventions which they believed would damage their joint, in favor of alternative and experimental treatments, which they believed would regenerate lost knee cartilage. Future research involving larger, more representative samples are needed to understand how widespread these beliefs are and if/how they influence treatment decisions. In the m...

Professional barriers and facilitators to using stratified care approaches for managing non-specific low back pain: a qualitative study with Canadian physiotherapists and chiropractors
ConclusionsSeveral shared and unique barriers and facilitators to using the stratified care approaches for non-specific LBP among Canadian physiotherapists and chiropractors were identified. Findings may help inform the design of tailored theory-based knowledge translation interventions to increase the uptake of stratified care approaches in clinical practice.

Beliefs toward mental illness in Turkish physiotherapists.
Conclusion: Postgraduate education may affect the positivity of the beliefs regarding the dangerousness of MI. Negative beliefs about the curability of MI, frustration in interpersonal relationships, and perception that the mentally ill are untrustworthy may hinder the health-seeking behavior, even the individual is a health-care professional. Having a family member with MI may positively affect the beliefs of PTs in case of an exposure to a patient with MI during physiotherapy sessions.

Exercise beliefs and behaviours of individuals with Joint Hypermobility syndrome/Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - hypermobility type.
CONCLUSION: Pain, fatigue and fear are common barriers to exercise. Advice from a physiotherapist and beliefs about the benefits of exercise influenced the reported exercise behaviours of individuals with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - hypermobility type in this survey. Implications for rehabilitation Exercise is a cornerstone of treatment for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome/Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - hypermobility type. Pain, fatigue and fear of injury are frequently reported barriers to exercise. Advice from physiotherapists may significantly influence exercise behaviour.

An exploration of experiences and beliefs about low back pain with Arab Muslim patients
CONCLUSIONS: Religious and cultural beliefs influenced pain-related beliefs, fear-avoidance beliefs and catastrophizing. We recommend addressing cultural gender roles and using "active" forms of religious coping to inform treatment. Participants' experiences within and experiences of the healthcare system were similar to Western cultures. This encourages the application of Western findings into practice to facilitate the management of these patients.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONA qualitative exploration was undertaken to explore the experiences of Muslim and/or Arab patients with LBP.Our findings show that females have p...

Exercise adherence: beliefs of adults with knee osteoarthritis over 2 years.
CONCLUSIONS: A novel finding is the conceptual link of self-determination to high adherence to strength-training exercises over 2 years among adults with KOA. Implications for physical therapists include identifying patients' autonomy, competence, and relatedness needs to foster intrinsic control for exercise behavior.

Letter-to-the-editor regarding Taylor S, Bishop A. Patient and public beliefs about the role of imaging in the management of non-specific low back pain: a scoping review. Physiotherapy. 2020 Jun;107:224 –233
We read the article by Taylor and Bishop, “Patient and public beliefs about the role of imaging in the management of non-specific low back pain: a scoping review” [1]. This review determined that although sparse, evidence suggests patients perceive imaging for low back pain (LBP) as positive, and a patient’s desire for a definitive di agnosis for their pains is the driver of this.
