Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Area of Science:

Veterinary Medicine
Rehabilitation Science

Background:

Physiotherapy, initially for human convalescence, is increasingly adapted for animal care.
Dogs frequently receive physiotherapy for congenital or acquired locomotor issues.
Human physiotherapy protocols are often transferred to canine applications.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review and consolidate knowledge on animal physiotherapy.
To highlight key aspects of canine physiotherapy, including its applications and methods.
To explore the use of physiotherapy for both rehabilitation and performance enhancement in dogs.

Main Methods:

A comprehensive literature review was conducted.
59 publications were initially screened, with 230 selected for detailed analysis.
Systematic collection and synthesis of existing research on animal and canine physiotherapy.

Main Results:

Physiotherapy is utilized for rehabilitating animals and improving the performance and welfare of healthy animals.
A significant portion of current physiotherapeutic approaches in animals are derived from human protocols.
The study identified critical factors for successful canine physiotherapy outcomes.

Conclusions:

Canine physiotherapy is a vital component of veterinary care, addressing diverse locomotor conditions.
Effective physiotherapy requires precise selection of techniques and strong interdisciplinary collaboration.
The adaptation of human physiotherapy offers significant benefits for canine health and performance.
