We love us some pain neuroscience and exercise for the treatment of chronic pain as a very plausible approach, but there is not very much research out there that truly tests it. This article compared that approach to a more "old style" approach to physical therapy management of chronic spine pain. The conclusions were promoted as promising, but the findings may not be as impressive as advertised. Special guest Kenny Venere joins us to take an exploration of pain neuroscience as an intervention!

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Dr. Kyle Ridgeway and Dr. Kenny Venere join me for Part 2 where we discuss the necessity for evidence in physical therapy! Kyle Ridgeway is a senior physical therapist at University of Colorado Hospital and coordinator of physical therapy quality improvement project in the medical intensive care unit. Dr. Kenny Venere is a home health physical therapist at Intermountain Healthcare in Salt Lake City, Utah. Make sure to check out Part 1 if you missed it! In this episode, we discuss: -Is physical therapy science based? -Why we should breed a culture of skepticism in physical therapy -Fad treatments and why practitioners are attracted to them -Kyle and Kenny’s passion for the science behind physical therapy -And so much more!   The current marketing of continuing education in physical therapy acts as a barrier to evidence based innovations. Kyle believes, “Because of perverse incentives and the way the continuing education model is structured, it lends itself to guruism… This is foundationally an educational problem,” as many physical therapists are not well trained to analyze claims and assess validity.   For the physical therapy profession to continue to advance in quality of care, Kenny stresses, “We need a culture in physical therapy that is skeptical. A culture that is comfortable with engaging in argument and debate.” He stresses that there must be plausibility to our treatments and that, “We have to be less certain in our convictions and I think that is a hallmark of a scientific profession.”   Scientific debate requires an open mind and the ability to incorporate new information however Kyle has found that humans struggle with this. He believes that, “If you were truly open minded and you’re coming in with no previous data, no previous preconceptions, and you are not taking a bayesian approach to this problem, you are equally open to both outcomes.”   Kyle restricts his treatments to those backed by sound evidence and carefully reviews newly vaunted treatments before exposing patients to them because, “These aren’t actually delineating things, these are actually diluting factors that make the profession we are at large less elevated.”   Kyle has found that physical therapy adds a great deal of value to the healthcare world and states, “My experience is other people in healthcare are just yearning for physical therapist’s input and once they get it they want more of it.”   Navigating the complexities of patient care can be difficult for new physical therapy graduates. Kyle advises, “We are seeing people at their absolute most distressing moments, in a convoluted system, with perverse incentives, and ridiculous rules. And it’s really complicated. I think the first thing was just letting in that uncertainty and being okay with the fact that you’re never there, you’re always improving, there is always something different to consider, and welcoming that journey.”   For more information on Dr. Kyle Ridgeway: Kyle Ridgeway received a BA in neuroscience from Pomona College and a doctor of physical therapy degree from University of Colorado Denver: Anschutz Medical Campus. Currently, he is a senior physical therapist and team lead for medical ICU physical therapy at University of Colorado Hospital. He also serves as a clinical instructor for the University of Colorado Denver Physical Therapy Program. A quality improvement project in the medical ICU, that he designed and implemented, eventually became standard practice. He speaks nationally regarding acute care physical therapy specifically in critical care, acute care quality improvement, hospital readmissions, and outcomes following critical illness. He blogs at PT Think Tank https://ptthinktank.com/author/kridgeway/ where he aims to provide thoughtful analysis and critical thinking on various clinical, scientific, and humanistic topics relating to physical therapy. But, of course, that is just his opinion.   For more information on Dr. Kenny Venere: Kenny Venere currently works as a home health physical therapist for Intermountain Homecare and Hospice in Salt Lake City. He graduated from Northeastern University in Boston, MA with his DPT in 2014. His primary interests within physical therapy are scientific literacy, meta-research and the philosophy of evidence based practice. He writes (infrequently) on these topics over at his website, www.physiologicalpt.com.       Resources discussed on this show: Kyle Ridgeway Twitter Kenny Venere Twitter Talking Points: An Oxford-Style Debate on Dry Needling Physiological PT PT Think Tank Why do humans reason?

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Dr. Kyle Ridgeway and Dr. Kenny Venere join me for Part 1 where we answer viewer questions on a variety of topics ranging from dry needling to physical therapy as a solution to the opioid crisis! Kyle Ridgeway is a senior physical therapist at University of Colorado Hospital and coordinator of physical therapy quality improvement project in the medical intensive care unit. Kenny Venere is a home health physical therapist at Intermountain Healthcare in Salt Lake City, Utah. In this episode, we discuss: - Should dry needling be implemented as a physical therapy intervention? -What is physical therapy’s role in the opioid crisis? -How can acute care PT’s better collaborate with home health PT’s following discharge from the hospital? -And so much more!   Kenny and Kyle did not set out to change any minds at their dry needling debate at Combined Sections Meeting. Instead they sought to encourage skepticism to those who are still appraising the evidence and Kenny hopes, “they left more informed and just the greater goal of having people think more critically about how they choose to implement interventions in a physical therapy practice. How they think about the literature on interventions in physical therapy practice was really what we hoped to accomplish.”   Kenny advocates physical therapists should be very selective and vet new methodologies before they are adopted into their toolkit by supporting a high bar for evidence of effectiveness. He stresses, “Research is everything. Without it, we have nothing.”   Although physical therapists are well equipped to play a key role in treating chronic pain, opioid use is a multifaceted problem with many players both in the medical field and pharmaceutical industry. Kenny believes, “Physical therapists I think have a role but it’s important that we be humble in the claims we make about our role. We are by no means a panacea or a cure for the opioid crisis but I think we can play an essential role in what is a bigger puzzle.” Kyle warns about the realities of treating chronic pain and states, “I get justifiably nervous when we start talking about physical therapy as the answer to the opioid crisis…it’s nuanced and it’s layered.”   Kyle suggests hospitals should rethink how they evaluate patient satisfaction and disentangle pain from quality of service and care. Kyle points out that, “We made pain a vital sign. Patient satisfaction in the hospital is one of the most talked about things in administration and if you mix this context together there’s real incentive to say we have to do something to take this pain away.”   More collaboration across physical therapy settings may lead to a more holistic approach to tackling unique patient healthcare needs. Kyle finds that one of the problems is, “These communications really don’t happen between settings and especially between acute care and home health.”   For more information on Kyle Ridgeway: Kyle Ridgeway received a BA in neuroscience from Pomona College and a doctor of physical therapy degree from University of Colorado Denver: Anschutz Medical Campus.

At the Voice of the Patient, we are dedicated to enhancing our ability as health care providers to truly listen to others and to establish a therapeutic alliance. In some cases, we can benefit from listening to the experience and mindset of other providers, such as Dr. Mark Bishop, PT, PhD. Dr. Bishop is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physical Therapy. Dr. Bishop received his entry-level training in Australia and has extensive experience working as a physical therapist. His research interests are in the management of musculoskeletal conditions, particularly pain, by orthopedic physical therapy. He also researches nonspecific effects in physical therapy, including the role of the expectations of providers and patients in therapeutic outcomes. We discuss many aspects of the therapeutic alliance, including therapist expectations, patient expectations, and placebo. We talk about research from Dr. Bishop and other scientists that have tested the role of expectancy in treatment, and Dr. Bishop shares advice for providers to maximize outcomes in an evidence-based manner.  Further reading: Journal articles on expectations: Individual Expectation: An Overlooked, but Pertinent, Factor in the Treatment of Individuals Experiencing Musculoskeletal Pain.
