How many patients describe receiving what sounds like inadequate care for osteoarthritis before they reached your clinic? Osteoarthritis is one of the most common chronic musculoskeletal conditions. When there are many trustworthy, international clinical guidelines that clearly outline what best-practice osteoarthritis care should entail, why are so many patients missing out on high-value care?Today's guest, Dr Jodi Young, discusses her team's analysis of data from nearly 25,000 patients who

2026/09/28

There's plenty of debate in the musculoskeletal rehabilitation community about how to clearly communicate with patients about a diagnosis. Clinicians are trying to balance being clear about what the likely cause of the symptoms is without inducing unnecessary worry. How much should you—or even can you—accurately describe the pathology and anatomy of the problem? On the flip side, others have strongly argued that pathoanatomic labels do more harm than good.Today, experienced musculoskeletal

Psychological factors like a person's thoughts, beliefs and emotions can exert a strong influence on rehabilitation outcomes for people with chronic musculoskeletal conditions. When a person has pain, they might feel scared to move or convinced that moving in a certain way will damage their body. Today's discussion focuses on how a person's thoughts about shoulder pain can change over an 8-week exercise-based rehabilitation program, and the implications for how musculoskeletal rehabilitation

Does hip crepitus make a difference to the health of the joint? Does crepitus indicate damage, harm or progression of osteoarthritis? How should clinicians explain hip crepitus and its implications to patients? Today's guest addresses those questions and more in a deep dive on hip crepitus.

Tendinopathy will show up regularly in the clinic for many JOSPT Insights listeners. In a person-centred care model, it's important to understand the person with tendinopathy, where they're coming from and what they're experiencing.Today's guest has been studying patients' experience of different types of lower limb tendinopathies. The results might surprise you, in just how complex and variable people's experiences are.Max Hopes is an osteopath and researcher (University of Technology Sydney)

JOSPT Insights episodes often explore what well-functioning teams look like and how they function. Why? Well there's at least 2 important reasons: Effective athlete centred care depends on the sports medicine, rehabilitation and performance team all co-ordinating to help the athlete get the best out of themselves.Working in teams and leading those teams well is not about telling people what to do - it's about shaping the path and working together to achieve goals. Effective leaders shape the path

The biopsychosocial model of health has been around since the late 1970s. In musculoskeletal rehabilitation, the biopsychosocial model is prominent in clinical practice guidelines for a variety of different conditions, with different approaches advocated for how to provide rehabilitation within the model.Today, Dr Kate Jochimsen guides JOSPT Insights listeners through psychologically-informed rehabilitation practice - taking principles that have become quite prominent in the chronic low back pain

We're often asking or answering the question "why?" in clinical practice. Why does it hurt? Why does this treatment give me relief? Why is the problem not getting better? Sometimes it's easy to answer why, and sometimes it's not.In today's episode, Dr Damian Keter (US Department of Veterans Affairs) explores and explains musculoskeletal treatment mechanisms. Dr Keter suggests some ways to approach responding to the why question, even when the treatment mechanism isn't clear. He shares his

Returning to sport after an ACL injury is often framed around a single construct: fear of reinjury. But what if fear doesn't tell the whole story?In today's episode, Chelsea and Marquis speak with Cobie Starcevich about her team's qualitative evidence synthesis exploring how athletes experience and interpret reinjury concerns after ACL injury.The team's findings suggest that what clinicians commonly label as "fear of reinjury" is actually a much broader, nuanced experience encompassing altered

A patient might ask the clinician: "How long will it take me to get back to sport?" or "How long until I'm feeling back to myself again?". These questions ask the clinician to make a prognosis - to predict the future.Often we rely on our clinical experience or intuition to answer with a prognosis. Sometimes we might know some prognostic factors, which can give us some big-picture ideas, but they're rarely enough to give the full picture.
