Evidence based practice (EBP) in physiotherapy Saurab Sharma
This presentation is the classroom lecture for undergraduate physiotherapy students whom I teach at Kathmandu University School of Medical Sciences in Nepal. This is an introductory lecture. Students carry on with steps of EBP in the years to come during the student life and use it for their presentations and clinical learning placement.
Other students too may benefit. I highly encourage other students, especially in some parts of India where EBP is not taught, and is reserved for Master's degree program. I completely disagree with this concept, as EBP is the pillar of a responsible physiotherapy practice. Early it starts, better it is.
As a general term, traction means pulling on part of the body.
Most often, traction uses mechanical force (sometimes generated by weights and pulleys) to put tension on a displaced bone or joint, such as a dislocated shoulder, to put it back in position and keep it still. In the medical field, traction refers to the practice of slowly and gently pulling on a fractured or dislocated body part. It’s often done using ropes, pulleys, and weights. These tools help apply force to the tissues surrounding the damaged area.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

1. Can a physiotherapist use the
title "Doctor"?
Presented
By
Dr. MD. Monsur
Rahman (PT)
B.P.T (G.B. Savar, Dhaka, BD.)
M.P.T. in Musculoskeletal Disorders
MMIPR, Mullana, Ambala, India.
2. Many say that physiotherapist are not Doctors???
True?? or, Not True??
Before coming any conclusion
First Let us examine
What is the origin of "Doctor"??
• "Doctor" word derived form Latin verb "docere” (Ref-Wikipedia /The wall
street journal)
• Meaning 'to teach‘ or, by extension 'scholar'
• So the word doctor means-'Teacher' or, 'scholar'
3. Then why?
Medical graduates address themselves as “Doctor”
Why not? Physiotherapist ,also a medical graduate use the title
“Doctor”
Some says physiotherapist are paramedical profession
Even some address them as Technicians
4. Please refer the-WHO
Health workers classification
(http/www.who.int/hrh/statistics/health_workers_classification.pdf)
Physiotherapists described as independent profession under
ISCO code 2264/WHO & 3226/ILO
Whereas paramedical practitioner's describe under ISCO code 2240/WHO
Physiotherapist are not paramedical profession
6. When this was started and why?
Let us go back and see what is the history of it
Because this is not something that we can just search in the Dictionary!!
As, Dictionaries are only descriptive, and their entries are based on from
common usage of term
Its roots can be traced, way back to the early church..
From Roman times through the middle ages until well into the 18th century
(Ref-Wikipedia /The wall street journal)
7. When the term “doctor” referred to the “Apostles”, Church “Fathers” and
other Christian authorities who thought and interpreted the Bible
The doctorate appeared in medieval Europe as a license to teach (Latin:
licentia docendi) at a medieval university
Later, in 19th century throughout much of the academic world, the term
“Doctor” refers to someone who has earned a doctoral degree form a
university
This is normally the Doctor of philosophy, abbreviated as Ph.D.
Ph.D. recipients may well be nonmedical, but they are most assuredly doctors
8. In the fundamental Technical & Historical meaning of the “Doctor”
More so than M.D. can hope to claim
Let us examine what ‘Standard’ say about it ‘Doctorates’ regarded as Level 8 in
international standard classification of education 2011(ISCED 2011)
Whereas Doctor as a noun when refers to a medical practitioner, who would
actually hold a qualification at
Level 6 or Level 7 of ISCED 2011,such as the M.B.B.S or the M.D
9. Then why??
General practitioner's in the field of medicine, even though holding
Bachelor level degrees such as M.B.B.S or, B.D.S addressed themselves
as- “Doctor”??
Even the practitioners of alternative systems of medicine such as
BAMS,BHMS,BUMS,BNYS use the term doctor
Though the appropriate terms for such practitioners already exists
BAMS Vaid
BHMS Homeopath
BUMS Hakim
BNYS Yogi
10. Then what went wrong??
According to the wall street Journal
• Jealous of the respect shown to scholars by the title doctor
• Medical schools in the 18th century (particularly Edinburgh in Scotland) began the
practice of addressing their graduates as “Doctor”
• Fundamental right of using the term “Doctor” is only for those who achieved the
doctoral degree (Ph.D.) in their respective fields and not just mere ego or proudness
or, courtesy
11. One should not mislead or
confuse the public-
For example
Dr. Monsur Rahman
Physician?? Dentist?? Cardiologist??
Radiologist??
14. Medical Community has used the term “Doctor” to such an extent that
Today public relates the word doctor more so with medical profession than
Ph.D.
After very long history of consistent usage of the term Doctor by medical
community & it is impossible to take out that
15. Rather.. It would be great, if all medical professional also suffix there respective specialty
16. Now the conclusion is
whether the physiotherapist can use the term “Doctor”??
The answer is Yes..
• Physiotherapist can use the title “Dr.” and write it in front of their name
• Also Said that-
Indian association of physiotherapist (IAP)
Indian medical Association(IMA)
Medical Council of India (MCI)
17. Has any statutory power to regulate the physiotherapy
profession in India
http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-newdelhi/physiotherapists-can-use-
the-title-dr/article2368020.ece
Also please read the full report on open letter from IMA & IAP answers at
http://www.physiotherapyindia.org/notices-public/3579-open-letter-to-dr-s-s-agwarwal-and-
dr-k-k-Aggarwal-regarding-defaming-physiotherapy-profession.html
18.
19.
20. It is now clear that
Fundamentally/Technically only Ph.D. has right to use the word Doctor/Dr.
before their name
Using the word doctor in medical profession is just a mere ‘tradition’ and
‘convention’
Hence when all the medical graduates are using the term Doctor
21. To avoid
Confusion
Physiotherapists who holds a
professional degree of 4.5 years
Bachelors in physiotherapy(B.P.T)
from recognized college/university Can
very well use the term “Doctor” in front
of their name
