The vicious elbow tendonitis- worse than torn rotator cuff tears, frozen shoulder, shoulder bursitis and ulnar nerve.... this condition is putting me in mental distress not possible
Generally I love the content, but, I disagree that a patients subjective feeling of how they're doing is not as important as an objective measure. I would argue how the patient feels is the most important part of physiotherapy given that without their feelings they would be unlikely to be receiving physiotherapy. Objective measures are obviously very useful, but in a profession where words are of utmost importance, its probably worth rethinking this statement.
This is a tough debate to have, and initially I said the same exact thing that you did. However, I can see the other side of things -- for many PTs, insurance and reimbursement is important and often constitutes a great deal of how they are paid. It can be hard to justify better reimbursement rates without standardized outcome measures that show improvement. Further, recent legislature has passed which directly ties patient outcomes to reimbursement rates, making outcome measures an important part of the job. Of course, at the end of the day I agree with your original statement -- the patient and their perceptions come first. Unfortunately, billing and insurance will looming over the heads of many of us, dictating what we can and can't do for our own patients. :(
