Course work 2 is a 2,500 word report which critically evaluates the chosen treatment or management strategy in neurological physiotherapy. The main focus of this report is ‘critical evaluation’. You should examine the issue as though important clinical, educational, management, or resource decisions rely on your evaluation of the evidence. It is anticipated that the chosen topic will be relevant to your current, recent or anticipated development as a physiotherapist. The chosen topic will be the same area discussed in the presentation, but whereas the presentation will focus on clinical reasoning about a particular patient, the report will be a more general presentation of the evidence. You should discuss and agree your choice of area with the module leader. This course work addresses the learning outcomes 1, 2, 3 & 5.

The essay should be written in the style of a scholarly paper, as seen in the physiotherapy literature, and thus should avoid the use of the first person (for example ‘I’ or ‘we’). You will be expected to demonstrate analytical and evaluative skills throughout your report.

It is important that you incorporate the evidence (the literature) to support the points you are making, and this literature should be reported critically, not descriptively. Please look at the article by Pomeroy VM and Tallis RC (2003) Avoiding the Menace of Evidenced-tinged Neuro-rehabilitation Physiotherapy 89 (10), 595-601. (This article will be provided, and it is posted on CUOnline in the ‘Assessment’ box.) In the light of this article appraise the evidence concerning the topic you have been assigned.

We would like you to identify the principal pieces of research which are often referred to or cited when there is discussion of the subject concerned. In other words we are not expecting a full literature review or systematic review which attempts to review all the evidence available. However, you should report on any searches of the literature, and why you have selected the cited bits of evidence, and then integrate your discussion into a readable narrative. Those pieces of research identified should in theory be the best research, but on critical evaluation you may disagree. If so, you should identify which pieces of research (if any) are worth using to model clinical practice in the area under scrutiny and why. Even though not evaluating many pieces of research, you should have some idea of the breadth of literature on the subject, whether they come from one researcher or from many, whether the research has been principally on animals or human subjects, or on children but not adults, or on people with stroke but not on those with other neurological conditions etc. It may be appropriate to confine your report to the use of a treatment for a particular patient group, or for a particular condition, enabling you to be more precise, to take your analysis to greater depth, and to involve more specific critical appraisal. If you have any doubt about this please consult with the Module Leader.
