Applying Principles of OPT by Soft-Tissue Lesions Stages

This article provids background information necessary to design orthopaedic physical therapy programs based on a patient's level of orthopaedic involvement during the acute, subacute, or chronic stage of soft-tissue healing. This approach was used whether the problem involved injury from trauma, insult from overuse, disease, surgical intervention. Soft-tissue lesions and clinical conditions were defined ; the stages of inflammation and repair were described with emphasis on how to manage soft tissues and joints with therapeutic exercise during each stage. A problem list with goals and plan of care was outlined to summarize each clinical situation. A list of clinical problems will be used as the foundation for designing exercise problems for each region of the body.
