“My left knee sometimes hurts, especially going up and down stairs, after a long run or while I am on the Stairmaster. The pain is a short twinge. I have had the pain since I was 14 years old. I am in good health, active, 31 years old. What should I do?”

Variability in our outcomes cannot continue to be
influenced by our current lack of discipline in the application of
established standardized patterns of care.

Knowledge Translation (KT)Gaps between knowledge and care delivery• patients, health care providers and policy‐makersKT‐ uses high quality knowledge in processes of decision makingMoving knowledge into action involves applying research to patient care • Assists clinicians in best practice• Reduces unwanted variability • Improves outcomes for patients• Is efficient and cost effective

Why Does the Gap Exist?Knowledge creation and dissemination are not enough to ensure use in the field.Interventions not described in ways that can be replicatedToo much information, too little timeLack of skills and confidence in critical appraisalInadequate analysis and resources aimed at eliminating barriers

Poll Question 1How confident are you that you would recognize MILD depression in a patient/client you are evaluating?
a. Very confident b. Moderately confidentc. Somewhat confidentd. Not confident
Question 2How confident are you that you would recognize EXTREME depression in a patient/client you are evaluating?
a. Very confident b. Moderately confidentc. Somewhat confidentd. Not confident
Depressive Symptoms
Brief 2‐item screening test from the Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders ProcedureThe questions: • (1) "During the past month, have you often been bothered by feeling down, depressed, or hopeless?" and
• (2) "During the past month, have you often been bothered by little interest or pleasure in doing things?"
The screening test is scored by counting the number of "yes" responses (range=0–2).

Why Close the Gap?Failures to use best evidence can..• Increase costs (waste)• Provide less effective care• Result in reduced patient outcomes
• Cause potential harm• Create poor policy‐making
Closing the Gap improves our patients lives demonstrates our value and enhances professionalism

“Wrong-site surgery is one of the most seriousand talked about safety failures—
But it could be said that any surgery that hasn’t been proven to benefit the patient is a wrong-
site surgery.” Jack Wennberg MD, Dartmouth University
Applying this concept to physical therapy, any therapy that hasn't been proven to benefit the patient
is “wrong site therapy”
Knowledge SynthesisHave to begin with knowledgePrimary literature consumption is not feasible on a large scale for impacting clinical behaviorsAn internist must read 34 primary literature articles daily to stay current in the fieldSynthesis Documents are excellent resources

Do we have a problem with the implementation of the
knowledge?

Chart reviews for Practice changeProvide helpful reminders related to actual patients• No change in weights on patient in 3 visits
o Assess each exercise and change accordingly• ROM has not increased and no change in treatment plan implementedo Assess home complianceo Assess for mobilizationo Implement new stretching strategy
• Swelling was increased from trace to 2+o Rest 2 days back on crutcheso Reduce in clinic and home program by 1 level
Criteria for Audit Successo Baseline use of knowledge was lowo Feedback is provided by colleague or supervisor
o More than one audit loop (inspect what you expect)
o Multimodal feedback (verbal/written)o Explicit action recommendations

Determine your change goals and change toleranceWhat is your ultimate goal?• Assess current baseline of practice‐o By condition?o By frequency?
• Identify unwanted variation in practice
• Protocol development
• Create process for ongoing changeo i.e. Journal clubs linked to practice changes or KT team
What is your teams tolerance for change?• Minimum criteria
o Take BP on patients with cardiac/stroke history or BP meds
o Take BP on all evals• Maximum criteria
o Treat on protocol 85% time‐ 100% time
Poll
How would you rate the tolerance to change in your current climate?A. High‐ eager to adopt new methods and proceduresB. Medium‐ willing to change daily practice but only a few procedures per yearC. Low‐ even when requested, compliance to change is poor

Do not be quick to adopt if you are not quick to drop…………….• Early adopters have high change tolerance and adopt new procedures/pathways quickly
• When evidence changes they also need to be dropping
Do Not Treat just because you used to…

Adapt knowledge to local contextWhat needs to be adjusted to fit into your practice setting and area?• Example: Guidelines may span care for a condition from acute through chronic‐you need to edit to match just acute care components for your inpatient hospital setting
Graham ID, Logan J, Harrison MB, et al J of Cont Education for Health Professions. 2006; 26: 13‐24.
Adapt Knowledge to your practice
Clinical ExampleMeasurement of BMI and explanation on all evaluationsProblem: BMI guidelines for older adults and children differ from standard guidelines Our practice sees 12‐100 year olds
Adaptation: 3 sets of guidelines• Aides calculate BMI• Therapists Explain• Pedometers with goals• Nutrition/Gym Referrals

Just Do It!Intervene
How are your patients doing?
• Chart Reviews• Best Cases• Worst Cases• Reason for variation
• Peer Review
• National Comparisons• Identify Milestones
• Self Report Forms• Body region specific
• NDI, DASH, Oswestry• Disease specific
• Toronto Extremity Salvage Score
• Activity Related• PSFS
• Impairments• Strength, ROM, etc.
-
32
Judgement Influenced by…
• Lack of Long term follow up
• Lack of outcome measures
• Lack of data for comparison
• Back inference
• Measurement ends at DC
• Patient reports “feeling better”
• How do your patients compare to others nationally, internationally
• Patient improved so what I did is necessary and my assumptions are true
• All patients from my clinic• If asked 90% of our patients meet Return to sport Testing at 6 months
• In Reality……• 58% Passed• 41% Failed

Do Not Reject Clinical Practice Guidelines and Milestone Based Progressions as “cookbook”
• Your patient complains of headache that occur with neck movements and neck pain.
• They are limited in cervical range of motion and corresponding joint play
• Palpation of posterior cervical muscles reproduce headache
• Which test likely to provide info you will use for treatment?
• A. Spurling A• B. ULTT A• C. Cranial cervical flexion test• D. Cervical extensor endurance test
• E. This is why I don’t treat c‐spine patients
-
34
Neck pain with Headaches
• Unilateral headache produced or aggravated by neck movement or position
• Headache produced/aggravated by opposite side posterior cervical muscle and joints
• Cervical Active Range of Motion• Limited
• Segmental mobility• Limited
• Cranial Cervical Flexion Test• Weak and poor control
