Issue Date: | 2019 | Date: | 2019-04-02 | Publication information: | Physical therapy 2019; 99(9): 1126-1131 | Abstract: | Highlights the findings and application of Cochrane reviews and other evidence pertinent to the practice of physical therapy. The Cochrane Library is a respected source of reliable evidence related to health care. Cochrane systematic reviews explore the evidence for and against the effectiveness and appropriateness of interventions-medications, surgery, education, nutrition, exercise-and the evidence for and against the use of diagnostic tests for specific conditions. Cochrane reviews are designed to facilitate the decisions of clinicians, patients, and others in health care by providing a careful review and interpretation of research studies published in the scientific literature. Each article in this PTJ series summarizes a Cochrane review or other scientific evidence on a single topic and presents clinical scenarios based on real patients or programs to illustrate how the results of the review can be used to directly inform clinical decisions. This article focuses on people diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Can exercise-based rehabilitation programs improve exercise capacity and quality of life in people with pulmonary arterial hypertension? | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/20631 | DOI: | 10.1093/ptj/pzz060 | ORCID: | 0000-0003-1084-0137 | Journal: | Physical therapy | PubMed URL: | 30939207 | Type: | Journal Article |
