Background
In this third paper in the series, we offer our presentation of Module 3 of the WHO’s Package of Interventions, PIR – Neurological Conditions, along with its satellite material – appendix addressing evidence base for the recommendations included in the guidance, specifically adequate best quality clinical practice guidelines, as well as Cochrane systematic reviews.
Aims
As in the whole series, we take a look at the document from the perspective of physiotherapy recommendations, within the multidisciplinary approach to functioning and functioning interventions.
Material and methods
It is a series of brief communications with narrative review characteristics, understood as a scientific endeavour with liberty to raise questions and stimulate discussion, formulating the opinion as balanced as possible, based on data rather than on intuition.
