The American Physical Therapy Association supports evidence-based practice to reduce unwarranted variation in care and improve the value of physical therapist services.

Clinical practice guidelines assist clinical decision-making but do not take the place of clinician judgment. APTA does not endorse any of these guidelines unless specifically noted.
