PHTH 793 - Research II: Literature Review/Background and Significance (1)

Building upon previously learned concepts, students review literature related to physical therapy practice, including active participation in discussions regarding the scientific merit and clinical utility of selected studies. Guided questions and discussions related to selected studies serve to enhance the students’ abilities to act as educated consumers of existing evidence, including how to clinically integrate this information to assist with clinical decision-making in evidence-based practice. Students will select one of the varied options for a scholarly research project to be approved by faculty for completion in PHTH 890 and 892. Spring
