I'm doing a systematic review of rehabilitation and return to sport after LCL injury.
From the included studies I have, not all the studies have a rehabilitation-phased protocol. What is the best way to present the rehabilitation interventions used across the different studies in a table? Would it be best to have columns of the phases, and for the studies that don;t have a phase protocol, write not available and create a column for exercises/modalities etc?
Any help would be appreciated in how to best present this information as it's confusing on how to of about it.
Hello
You can make column of Rehabilitation details like total duration of Rehabilitation program like 45 min per / day 5 session per week & xy days or months
&
Add column of treatment in 2 parts
Exercise & Modalities
Via this method you got which exercise & modalities are commonly used in treatment. & you got information about treatment duration & intensity.
I hope your inclusive Criteria have include
specified grade studies like study who include participants with grade 1 or 2.
If you in this way will give you more specific result.
I hope it would be helpful.
Thank you Purvi Doshi for your message.
Based on the inclusion criteria I have, the studies I've only been able to find were review articles, clinical commentaries, and case reports.
Most of the studies I found don't have specific details regarding the duration of the program, which makes it even more trickier.
The approach I've tried is having the number of phases in total, and then all the total number of phases and adding modalities/exercises in each column. What I've noticed from previous studies is in the number of phases column, they write NA (not available) and add the exercises/modalities to each phase despite the journal article not having a phased protocol.
I've attached for you a document to explain what I've done.
You can also go in phasewise, via this method may you got in most of study treatment given in how many phase & how long each phase. You also got at intial phase means in phase 1 what kind of treatment given & later phase means 3 ta 4 what kind of treatment given commonly. @Jai Mistry
It can be interesting to have a view also on the outcomes which were taken and with that assume in which protocol phases they were progressing.
Also define the population of the studies to see if the external application can be made.
thanks Purvi Doshi , this is what I had in my mind.
Vervloet Grégory i- if its a review article/clinical commentary article, there's not really any outcomes which makes it even more tricky
