EFFECTIVENESS OF A PHYSIOTHERAPIST-LED TRIAGE AND TREATMENT SERVICE ON WAITING TIME FOR ADULTS WITH MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN REFERRED TO AUSTRALIAN PUBLIC HOSPITAL PHYSIOTHERAPY CLINICS: A PROTOCOL FOR THE WAIT-LESS TRIAL

Effectiveness of a physiotherapist-led triage and treatment service on WAITing time for adults with musculoskeletal pain referred to Australian public hospital physiotherapy clinics: a protocol for the WAIT-less trial

Introduction Musculoskeletal pain is the second leading cause of disease burden in Australia, and there is a need to investigate new models of care to cope with the increasing demand for health services.This paper describes the protocol for a randomised controlled trial investigating whether a physiotherapist-led triage and treatment service is non

Estimating long-term survival temperatures at the assemblage level in the marine environment: towards macrophysiology.

Defining ecologically relevant upper temperature limits of species is important in the context of environmental change.The approach used in the present paper estimates the relationship between rates of temperature change and upper temperature limits for survival in order to evaluate the maximum long-term survival temperature (Ts).This new approach
