Course Description:
Rehabilitation research evidence generated today may take over 17 years to be implemented into clinical practice. Numerous barriers, including lack of access to evidence and the inability to critically evaluate the literature, exist to incorporating evidence into rehabilitation practice. Knowledge translation (KT) is the “process that includes the synthesis, dissemination, exchange, and ethically sound application of knowledge to improve health, provide more effective health services and products, and strengthen the health care system.” The use of KT process may help promote earlier implementation of the evidence in rehabilitation services. Providing physical therapists with an example of a KT project implemented in an outpatient clinic will promote the development of the knowledge and skills to engage in their own KT project within their practice setting.
