Physical activity for people with chronic conditions: a systematic review of toolkits to promote adherence.

Purpose: The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that health professionals develop and implement "adherence counselling toolkits" to promote adherence to long-term therapies in people with chronic conditions. This prospectively registered review aimed to systematically identify and evaluate existing toolkits developed to promote adherence to physical activity in people with chronic conditions.

Materials And Methods: Grey literature and six e-databases were searched for studies investigating the use of "toolkits" to promote adherence to physical activity or exercise recommendations in people with chronic conditions (Medline, PsycInfo, EmCare, Cochrane, CINAHL Plus, Pedro).

Physiotherapy assessment in people with neurological conditions-Evidence for the most frequently included domains: A mixed-methods systematic review.

Rationale: There is a lack of consensus in the literature related to what is assessed clinically by physical therapists in people with neurological disorders.

Method: Five databases were searched from 1946 to 31st January 2023.
