Abstrakt

Rehabilitative modalities such as incentive spirometry and physiotherapy interventions, e.g. aerobic exercises, have been shown to produce positive outcomes in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Hemispheric CVA and other complications arising from SCD are amenable to physiotherapy. There have been few studies on the effectiveness of physiotherapy in the management of individuals with SCD. The present study attempts to assess the SCD-related knowledge, attitude and level of participation of physiotherapists in the Nigerian healthcare system. It also examines a possible association between the foregoing and practice settings. The study was carried out among physiotherapists in South-West Nigeria registered on professional e-platforms. The respondents filled in an adapted electronic version of a questionnaire. The IBM SPSS 20 was used for statistical analysis, and a chi-square test was used to determine an association between the levels of knowledge, practice settings, and participation among the respondents (p < 0.05). The study findings revealed that only 19% of respondents had received a specific training related to the care of SCD patients, although 65% had been involved in the treatment of at least one patient with SCD. Only 29.5% of respondents had “Good Knowledge” of SCD pathophysiology. A statistically significant association (χ2 = 75.357, p = 0.012) was found between respondents’ level of knowledge and their practice settings, i.e. a teaching hospital mostly. The physiotherapists from the Nigerian South-West,
mostly those working in teaching hospitals, reported an average level of knowledge of SCD care. Since the management of sickle cell disease is of multidisciplinary character and requires an all hands-on deck approach, controlled trials should be undertaken by physiotherapy researchers regarding the effects of modalities and interventions on pro-inflammatory bio-molecules.
