PEDro was developed to give physiotherapists rapid access to research evidence needed for clinical decision making. The database contains systematic reviews and randomised controlled trials in physiotherapy. All randomised controlled trials are rated for methodological quality using a specially-designed scale (the PEDro scale). Physiotherapists can visit the PEDro web-site and use powerful, user-friendly search strategies to obtain bibliographic details and author abstracts of all relevant systematic reviews and randomised controlled trials, ranked according to methodological quality. | | Category: | Bob's Links | | Tags: | physiotherapy evidence database | | Views: | 112 | | User: | physiognome (View All of physiognome's Links) | | Replies: | 0 | | | |
