Reliability of temporal summation, thermal and pressure pain thresholds in a healthy cohort and musculoskeletal trauma population.
TL;DR: Moderate to excellent intra and inter-rater reliability for HPT and PPT in asymptomatic participants and good to excellent inter- rater reliabilityFor acute musculoskeletal trauma participants are demonstrated, with TS showing more variability for both sets of participants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of Exercise-Induced Hypoalgesia to Repetitive Back Movement in People with Chronic Low Back Pain.
TL;DR: To investigate whether people with chronic low back pain show dysfunctional exercise‐induced hypoalgesia (EIH) in response to repeated contractions of their back muscles during a lifting task, a large number of patients with LBP show EIH.
Journal ArticleDOI
International framework for examination of the cervical region for potential of cervical arterial dysfunction prior to orthopaedic manual therapy intervention
TL;DR: The purpose of the framework is to provide guidance to clinicians for the assessment of the cervical region for potential of Cervical Arterial Dysfunction in advance of planned management (inclusive of manual therapy and exercise interventions).
Journal ArticleDOI
Position Statement: International Framework for Examination of the Cervical Region for potential of vascular pathologies of the neck prior to Musculoskeletal Intervention: International IFOMPT Cervical Framework.

TL;DR: Vascular pathologies may be recognisable if the appropriate questions are asked during the patient history, if interpretation of elicited data enables recognition of this potential, and if the physical examination can be adapted to explore any potential vasculogenic hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cluster randomised, double-blind pilot and feasibility trial of an active behavioural physiotherapy intervention for acute whiplash-associated disorder (WAD)II
TL;DR: The findings support the potential value of the ABPI, and that an adequately powered definitive trial to evaluate effectiveness is feasible with minor modifications to procedures.
