(http://apta.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT02MjI2NjAmcD0xJnU9MTAxNDc5NTMyOSZsaT0yMzQ1N\

jA2/index.html) is designed to

support, explain, and enhance physical therapy clinical practice by

facilitating research that is useful primarily to clinicians. It represents

questions

that are believed to be important to clinical practice, the profession, and

APTA. The themes of the Clinical Research Agenda were developed in an

attempt to span the breadth of patient/client management beyond the

particulars of any single question and to signal the full emergence of the

physical

therapist clinician as a scientific practitioner.
