Abstract

Variability of profile and practices (roles) of the ICU physiotherapists exists globally. The profile and current practices (roles) of the private practice physiotherapist in the private ICU has been minimally explored especially in South Africa (SA). A dearth of survey data and in-depth exploration of the latter exists in the current literature. The aim of this study was to determine and explore the profile and current practices (roles) of the ICU physiotherapists in private ICUs in SA.
