Moving Forward: ANPT Position Paper
In the January 2021 issue of the Journal of Neurologic Physical Therapy, the Academy of Neurologic Physical Therapy Board of Directors published a position paper, Moving Forward, on Evidence-Based vs. Traditional Treatments.
This document supports the ANPT position to emphasize the use of the best available evidence and research in the treatment of adults with acute-onset movement disorders following neurological injury. After decades of debate over the different treatment methods the ANPT Board of Directors felt it was time to provide a statement as to ANPT's position for the membership.
The ANPT Board of Directors recognizes there are many viewpoints on this topic. An FAQ has been created and will be added to as questions are discussed.
Correction: Reference 50 is incorrect in the publication. The correct reference should be NeuroIFRAH website, https://www.neuro-ifrah.org/, accessed October 2020.
