ABSTRACT To identify the profile of the physical therapist is important for a profession overview, which can help organs and institutions of higher education to train more qualified, fulfilled, valued, and recognized professionals for health care. The profile of the physical therapist has already been studied in other states, specific specialties or workplace; however we are not aware of the current profile of the physical therapist in the state of São Paulo (SP). The aim of this study was to describe the profile of the physical therapist of SP according to demographic, training, and professional performance aspects. All physical therapists registered in Crefito-3 with at least one year since graduation were invited to participate in the study, by means of answering an online questionnaire. In total, 2,323 physical therapists participated in the research. The sample was composed by: 80% women, 62% graduated between 2001 and 2010, 83% graduated from a private university, and 66.7% had attended a post-graduation specialization course. Most of them worked as physical therapists and had physiotherapy as their only source of income. The predominant workplace was home care and the monthly gross income was up to R$ 3,000.00 in 45% of cases. Professionals who were graduated for a longer time, those who work in universities and in their own clinics were better remunerated. Most professionals are satisfied with their profession, often attend update courses, present low adherence to unions and associations and are unaware of the current legislation in force. There is a predominance of female physical therapists in the state of São Paulo, young, who attended a post-graduation specialization course and who seek to be updated, but with low participation in the profession's institutions. Many are self-employed, professionals working in universities and in their own clinics are the best paid and the time of training and experience are relevant factors to achieve a better monthly income.

The primary goal of physical rehabilitation is to assess movement impairments and restore function to improve overall quality of life. Virtual reality (VR) may provide the optimal environment to promote these goals due to its motivating and modifiable nature which can be difficult to accomplish through traditional real-world therapeutic methods. Current research of VR for rehabilitation has demonstrated that VR interventions can produce clinically meaningful change in motor outcomes. Despite this, adoption and usage of VR by physical therapy professionals is unclear due to the limited research in this area. Thus, the purpose of this study was to identify the current usage and perspectives of VR in physical rehabilitation among physical therapy professionals. Physical Therapists (PTs) and Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) in the United States were recruited to participate in this survey-based study. A total of N = 658 participants completed the survey, which consisted of demographic information followed by the Assessing Determinants Of Prospective Take-up of Virtual Reality (ADOPT-VR2) survey that assesses 12 constructs (e.g., Attitudes, Perceived Usefulness, Facilitating Conditions and Barriers) related to the use of VR in clinical settings. Most respondents reported not using VR in clinical practice (n = 611; 92.9%). For all respondents, the constructs of Attitudes, Perceived Ease of Use, Compatibility, Client Influence, and Self-Efficacy were found to statistically contribute to the prediction of Behavioral Intention to use VR (p

ABSTRACT This study aimed to describe the distribution of physical therapists in the Brazilian primary health care (PHC) and the ratio of inhabitants per physical therapist in PHC, according to the National Register of Health Service Providers (CNES - Cadastro Nacional de Estabelecimentos de Saúde). A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from CNES and Census/2010 data. In total, 6,917 physical therapists were registered in PHC, and most were located in the Southeast region (49%). Southeast and South were the regions with the best ratios of inhabitants per physical therapist in PHC (about 23,000/1). The North presented a ratio of 32,000 inhabitants/professional. 47% of the Brazilian cities have a physical therapist in PHC. Our analysis by population size indicated a higher percentage of physical therapists in PHC in small (39%) and midsize cities (34%). The best inhabitants/physical therapist ratio occurred in small cities of the Southeast (6,948/1) and the worst, in metropolises of the Midwest (371,672/1). Small cities have physical therapists only in PHC; on the other hand, most cities of larger sizes have physical therapists in all health care levels.

In 2023, there were around 197 thousand physiotherapists employed in the healthcare sector in Germany, by far the highest figure in Europe, almost one hundred thousand more than there were in France which had the second highest in Europe. Spain followed with approximately 66 thousand employed physiotherapists in 2022. Number of physiotherapists has risen significantly in Germany In the year 2000, Germany had 78 thousand physiotherapists employed in their healthcare sector. Since then the number has grown year-on-year. The number of physiotherapists in France has increased between 2000 and 2021 as well but at a much lower rate than in Germany. Do Germans visit the physio more often? In 2018, 40 percent of individuals in Germany reported they were living with a long-standing limiting health condition or illness. This was a higher rate than the in other comparably large western Europe nations and may indicate that there is a higher need for physical therapists in Germany compared to other countries. Nine percent of people in Germany said they visited a physical or occupational therapist at least three times a year in 2018. In the same year, 23 percent of those in Germany visited a physical or occupation therapist at least once a year, which is higher than the frequency of visits in Great Britain or France.

ABSTRACT This study analyzes the working profile of physical therapists from the states of Rio de Janeiro (RJ) and Rio Grande do Sul (RS) in the management of people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). A total of 256 responses were obtained to a questionnaire sent via the electronic address of the Regional Councils of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy (CREFITOS) 2 (RJ) and 5 (RS), from March to December 2020. The questionnaire comprises 36 closed questions, the variables of which were grouped into: (1) sample characterization; (2) specific data on the profession of physical therapist; and (3) issues related to AD. In this article, only issues related to AD will be analyzed. All questions were multiple choice with 2 to 15 options of answer. Most respondents (88.3%) had already treated patients with AD, but 50.8% needed to review the literature to assist these patients. The main objective reported in the management of the individual with AD was to “delay the progression of motor losses.” The practices were significantly different according to the stage of the disease (p<0.001). More than 85% of the participants cited as a benefit that physical therapy “delays physical dependence.” This study shows the need for further studies that specifically address the intermediate and advanced stages of AD since the current literature is inconclusive and with little evidence regarding physical therapy in the management of this population, making it impossible to create manuals and /or standardization of specific practices for each stage.
