临床实践和研究中使用的干预措施需要足够详细地描述,以便准确复制。由于单词和短语可以随着时间的推移而改变其含义,因此作者必须仔细选择单词并定义任何可能模糊的内容。“呼吸练习”是一个涵盖多种治疗方法的短语。最近的随机对照试验已经确定了教导哮喘患者重新训练呼吸的价值。然而,对呼吸干预的描述通常是不充分的。这个问题部分源于对诸如“呼吸机呼吸”等术语的一定程度的混淆,这些术语有不同的解释。提出了一种更有条理的办法来报告这种干预措施。这种方法将有助于避免混淆,并允许将在研究试验中发现有效的干预措施转移到常规临床实践中。(C)2011年,物理治疗特许协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Interventions used in clinical practice and research need to be described in sufficient detail to permit accurate replication. Since words and phrases can change their meaning over time, it is important that authors choose their words carefully and define anything which might be ambiguous. 'Breathing exercises' is a phrase which covers a multitude of therapeutic approaches. Recent randomised controlled trials have established the value of teaching patients with asthma to retrain their breathing. However, the descriptions of the breathing interventions are generally inadequate. This problem stems partly from a degree of confusion surrounding terms such as 'diaphragmatic breathing' which has been variously interpreted. A more structured approach to reporting such interventions is proposed. This approach will help to avoid confusion, and will permit the transfer of those interventions found to be effective in research trials into routine clinical practice.
