New Models for Primary Care Are Needed for Osteoarthritis
Physical Therapy, 11/10/09
Dziedzic KS et al. – This article reflects on aspects of the occurrence, natural history, prognosis, and management of common joint problems in primary care. Although the biomedical model has contributed to major advances, a model that embraces chronic pain management and its psychological and social components is needed. In particular, primary care is the ideal arena to achieve high–impact secondary prevention of pain and disability in people with osteoarthritis. Physical therapists are in a crucial position in primary care to provide support for self–management of this condition, especially for interventions related to exercise and behavioral change.
