An exploration on the use of lung ultrasound by physiotherapists within the cardiac surgery population. (2024)
Thesis
FARRELL, C.J. 2024. An exploration on the use of lung ultrasound by physiotherapists within the cardiac surgery population. Robert Gordon University, DPT thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2565254

Cardiac surgery places patients at a high risk of developing postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), some of which can have fatal consequences if not detected and treated in adequate time. Physiotherapists are an essential part of the postopera... Read More about An exploration on the use of lung ultrasound by physiotherapists within the cardiac surgery population..

The accuracy of load-velocity relationships to predict 1RM: a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis. [Dataset] (2023)
Data
GREIG, L., ASPE, R.R., HALL, A., COMFORT, P., COOPER, K. and SWINTON, P.A. 2023. The accuracy of load-velocity relationships to predict 1RM: a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis. [Dataset]. Hosted on Open Science Framework (OSF) [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/6DXP5

The load lifted during resistance training is frequently prescribed in terms of a percentage of the maximum load that can be lifted for one repetition (1RM;González-Badillo and Sánchez-Medina 2010). This process allows for both individualisation of a... Read More about The accuracy of load-velocity relationships to predict 1RM: a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis.

An exploration of movement and handling by physiotherapists in a rehabilitation setting: a motion analysis study. (2023)
Thesis
JOHNSON, K.S. 2023. An exploration of movement and handling by physiotherapists in a rehabilitation setting: a motion analysis study. Robert Gordon University, DPT thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2071667

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSD) affect between 56-80% of physiotherapists, with patient handling often reported as a risk factor. Physiotherapists use therapeutic handling to aid patient rehabilitation. Therapeutic handling involves th...
