Conceptualizing movement by expert Bobath instructors in neurological rehabilitation
Julie Vaughan‐Graham; Kara Patterson; Karl Zabjek; Cheryl A. Cott
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec><jats:title>Rationale, aims, and objectives</jats:title><jats:p>Movement, a core aspect of physiotherapy practice, and integral to the clinical reasoning process has undergone limited theoretical development. Instead, research has focused on intervention effectiveness embedded within the positivist paradigm. The purpose of this study was to explore how expert neurorehabilitation therapists conceptualize movement as part of their clinical reasoning.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method</jats:title><jats:p>A qualitative interpretive descriptive approach consisting of stimulated recall using video‐recorded treatment sessions and in‐depth interviews was used. Theoretical sampling was used to recruit members of the International Bobath Instructors Training Association (IBITA) who are recognized experts in neurorehabilitation. Interview transcripts were transcribed verbatim. Data analysis was progressive, iterative, and inductive.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>Twenty‐two IBITA instructors from 7 different countries volunteered to participate. They ranged in clinical experience from 12 to 40 years and instructor experience from 1 to 35 years. The conceptualization of movement by the IBITA instructors involves the following elements: (1) movement comprises the whole person and the whole body, not just individual body segments; (2) active alignment of body segments is integral to movement performance; and (3) efficient movement requires the relative integration of postural control/stability and selective movement/mobility.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>The IBITA instructors conceptualize movement from a person‐centred perspective. The integration of postural control and selective movement, with alignment and variability as key components, forms the foundation of their understanding of movement. Further investigation into the role of postural control in movement recovery post central nervous system lesion is required. Likewise, the dimensions of movement critical to the conceptualization of movement are not well understood from the perspective of the physiotherapist or persons with neurological impairments.</jats:p></jats:sec>
