British Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Amputee Rehabilitation (BACPAR)BACPAR needs reviewers for their updated clinical guidelines – Potential for NICE accreditationDo you want to get involved?The British Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Amputee Rehabilitation (BACPAR) are currently undertaking an update of the clinical guidelines for the pre and post operative physiotherapy management of
adults with lower limb amputation.The guidelines update group are at the
stage of seeking reviewers of the update, and would like to invite interested Band 5 and Band 6 physiotherapists to volunteer for this. Experience with amputees in not necessary, as the update group wish to find out if these guidelines will support staff working with limited access to expert advice.
The process of updating the guidelines is an evolving process and included in this is now the potential to obtain accreditation from NICE for the guidelines. The update group are working hard to meet all the criteria to facilitate accreditation and as part of this the importance of obtaining reviews from all the identified stakeholders is crucial.• Would you be a reviewer? If you interested please contact Sara Smith, BACPAR guidelines co-ordinator, at: [email protected] important question to answer is whether physiotherapists want to be able to purchase a printed version of the whole guideline or is access to a free version via the CSP/BACPAR websites sufficient? To see what the online version would look like, you can use the link below which shows the prosthetic guideline documents.http://www.csp.org.uk/publications/evidence-based-clinical-guidelines-physiotherapy-management-adults-lower-limb-prosthese
BACPAR will be printing a quick reference guide and an audit tool for the guidelines, but need to ascertain if a printed version of the full document is required. The update group would value your feedback by following the link to a quick survey monkey questionnaire, please contact us for the link.
Please get involved and help shape, what to date could potentially be, the first physiotherapy guidelines to apply for accreditation from NICE.
