Abstract

Risk assessment is a systematic procedure employed to detect potential dangers and evaluate the possible consequences of disasters or calamities, ensuring comprehensive hazard identification in the work environment. Integrating risk assessment into management and organizational processes is crucial, especially in healthcare settings like physiotherapy, where patient safety is paramount. This comprehensive review systematically compiled and analyzed relevant studies from scholarly journals, bibliographies, and related articles to evaluate the effectiveness of risk assessment procedures in identifying and mitigating potential hazards in physiotherapy practice. The review specifically focused on the use of the STEADI tool in conjunction with electronic health records (EHR) for joint risk assessments. The risk assessment process involves three key stages: identification, calculation, and implementation of control measures. Various methodologies were explored, including models like CATCH fall administration, PISTI management, multidisciplinary collaboration, and Fall TIPS. Falls, a major global health issue, are the 13th leading cause of death worldwide, with preventive strategies shown to reduce fall-related deaths by up to 92%. Effective risk assessment is essential for ensuring patient safety in physiotherapy. By identifying and mitigating potential risks, particularly those related to falls, healthcare providers can significantly improve patient outcomes and safety in clinical practice.

Abstract

Manual manipulative practices (MMPs), such as chiropractic spinal manipulation, osteopathic treatment, and Tui Na massage, are famous for improving musculoskeletal function but carry risks ranging from minor to severe side effects. Chiropractic therapy generally has minimal adverse effects, while Tui Na is less commonly used. A literature review on patient safety in MMPs involves evaluating studies, synthesizing findings, and identifying themes. While spinal manipulation can be beneficial, it may cause side effects like muscle soreness and headache and, in rare cases, severe complications like stroke. Reporting of adverse events has improved but still does not meet guidelines. Strategies to minimize risks include informed consent, thorough patient history, and adherence to clinical guidelines. These practices can enhance patient care and public health when applied with safety considerations.
