Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to contribute to our Special Issue, “Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation”, which aims to enhance evidence about the assessment and treatment strategies addressed to musculoskeletal conditions and its repercussions on patients’ lives.
Musculoskeletal disorders are among the most disabling conditions worldwide. It is generally related to chronic conditions that affects sensorial, physical, and social dimensions. This Special Issue welcomes well-designed and good-quality studies about musculoskeletal disorders, their impact, and treatment. We also welcome studies related to musculoskeletal function and the measurement properties of the instruments used in their assessment are important because it would help us to trust in the data obtained during our assessment and to rationalize the treatment approach. Studies using quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods or systematic reviews with or without metanalysis are considered.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Healthcare.
