This paper discusses the problem of adherence in physiotherapy and methods of assessing it. Poor adherence to physiotherapy is a problem with up to 65% of patients being either nonadherent or partially adherent to their home programmes, and approximately 10% of patients failing to complete their prescribed course of physiotherapy. As physiotherapy programmes consist of a diverse range of treatment methods that may be administered either at the clinic or at home, the measurement of adherence to these components must reflect the behavioural demands that each impose. Attendance at physiotherapy and the use of the Sport Injury Rehabilitation Adherence Scale (SIRAS: Brewer et al., 1995) to assess patients’ behaviours during the treatment session are recommended as the measures of clinic-based adherence. Patient self-reports are suggested as the most ideal method of evaluating adherence to the home-based physiotherapy. Any assessment of adherence must also include an analysis of the reasons for this type of behaviour, which tend to be related to the patients’ personal characteristics, variables related to the disease or injury and treatment, and the patient-physiotherapist interaction. Knowing the reasons for poor adherence will assist physiotherapists in finding solutions to overcome the problem. Sandra Frances Bassett (2003). The Assessment of Patient
