    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; blood lactate concentration; cross-country sit-skiing; impairment; internal kinetics; inverse dynamics simulations; joint reaction forces; kinematics; metabolic rate; musculoskeletal modelling; musculoskeletal efficiency; nordic skiing; oxygen uptake; para-skiing; respiration; skiing efficiency.;

    Abstract : Double poling (DP) is a sub-technique in cross-country skiing that has increased in interest over the last decades, e.g. athletes in cross-country skiing have increased their utilisation of double poling during competitions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Co-financed collaboration between welfare services. Effects on staff and patients with musculoskeletal disorders

    Author : Eva-Lisa Hultberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : co-financing; collaboration; musculoskeletal disorders; interprofessional; primary health care; rehabilitation;

    Abstract : Abstract: Background: The number of individuals in need of help and support simultaneously from different welfare services has increased. Collaboration between professionals and authorities has been seen as a way to improve the efficiency in treatment and rehabilitation. READ MORE

  3. 3. Musculoskeletal Biomechanics in Cross-country Skiing

    Author : L. Joakim Holmberg; Anders Klarbring; Hans-Christer Holmberg; Anders Eriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Why copy the best athletes? When you finally learn their technique, they may have already moved on. Using muscluloskeletal biomechanics you might be able to add the "know-why" so that you can lead, instead of being left in the swells. READ MORE

  4. 4. Direct triaging to physiotherapist in primary care - development and evaluation of a triage model

    Author : Lena Bornhöft; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; physiotherapy; primary care; triage; musculoskeletal disorders;

    Abstract : Background: There is evidence that early contact with physiotherapists leads to advantages for patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Many patients, however, initially seek contact with general practitioners (GPs) within primary care for musculoskeletal disorders. This often delays or replaces physiotherapist contact. READ MORE

  5. 5. Screening, Targeting, Tailoring, and Implementation in Primary Health Care : An integrated physical therapy and behavioural medicine approach to persons with persistent musculoskeletal pain

    Author : Maria Sandborgh; Eva Denison; Per Lindberg; Christina Opava; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Caring sciences; physical therapy; behavioural medicine; screening; chronic pain; primary health care; Vårdvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with a behavioural medicine approach to the management of patients with persistent musculoskeletal pain in primary health care physical therapy. The main aims of the thesis were; to develop, and evaluate the psychometric properties of, a screening instrument for risk of disability and; to evaluate the implementation and effects of a targeted and tailored treatment.
