Knowledge translation in physical therapy: from theory to practice

Abstract

In order to support EBP, knowledge translation interventions can be used to support best practice. Implementation of new knowledge should be guided by a framework or a conceptual model. Consensus on the evidence must be reached and assessment of context-related factors should be done prior to the implementation of any KT intervention. Intervention strategies should be active, multi-component and include individuals with intermediary positions that can facilitate the KT process.
