Manipulation in der Physiotherapie - Gibt es eine wissenschaftliche Grundlage für das Verbot?

Zusammenfassung

Das Ziel dieser Literaturstudie war, eine Antwort auf folgende Frage zu erhalten: Gibt es eine wissenschaftliche Rechtfertigung für das Manipulationsverbot für Physiotherapeuten im Kanton Bern oder handelt es sich dabei eher um einen berufspolitischen Interessenskonflikt? Die bei der strukturierten Literatursuche und der Expertenbefragung gefundenen Studien lieferten keine Hinweise, dass Physiotherapeuten mit einer Zusatzausbildung in manipulativer Physiotherapie mehr Zwischenfälle nach Manipulationen verursachen als andere Berufsgruppen. Daher muss angenommen werden, dass das Manipulationsverbot aus einem berufspolitischen Interessenskonflikt entstanden ist.

Abstract

The aim of this literature review was to answer to the following question: Is there a scientific justification for the manipulation ban for physiotherapists in the canton Bern or is this rather a matter of professional policy? The studies found through a structured literature search and interviews with experts failed to deliver any evidence that physiotherapists wit additional training in manipulative physiotherapy cause more critical incidents than other occupational groups. Therefore it must be assumed that the manipulation ban originates in professional policy and conflict of interests.
