FTD Survey Study – Website Information

Participants Needed: Survey Study

Researchers at McMaster University and Georgia Southern University are looking for physical therapists to complete a short questionnaire about the treatment of first-time shoulder dislocations (FTDs).

The purpose of this study is to survey physiotherapists in North America to see how patients with a FTD are treated with physiotherapy. We want to evaluate the clinical profile of FTD patients that attend physiotherapy (ie. mechanism of injury, rate of recovery, rate of re-dislocation, etc.), whether there is any consistency in treatment regime, and whether there are any guidelines that physiotherapists follow to guide treatment for these patients.

The primary objective of this study is to assess physiotherapists; perspectives surrounding management of FTDs and evaluate whether there is sufficient evidence to guide optimal care for this patient population.

This questionnaire contains questions about your experience treating FTDs and should take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Responses to the survey are anonymous. Results from the survey will help guide treatment for this important problem – please consider completing the survey. If you are interested in participating in the study, please click the link below to access the survey.
