Family-centered care on a physiotherapy course: case reports
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction: Family-Centered Care (FCC) is a philosophy that recognizes the family as a partner in the intervention process and currently constitutes one of the most important practices in pediatric physical therapy intervention. For this reason, FCC should be part of pediatric physiotherapy training so that future physiotherapists are able to include it in their clinical practice. Objective: To verify the feasibility of applying FCC as part of an undergraduate Physiotherapy course, focusing on the activity of children with different health conditions. Methods: This is a case report, based on information collected from medical records, on an intervention program carried out with 5 children and their families, in the home, once a week for seven weeks, by students of physical therapy in pediatrics. For pre- and post-intervention assessment of the children, standardized instruments were used: Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) and the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS). Reports were collected from families and students regarding the FCC experience. Results: The children with neurological impairment increased the GMFM target area score by more than 5%, indicating clinical improvement. A child at biological risk had a pre-intervention AIMS percentile of < 25 and a post-intervention percentile of 50, while another child with developmental delay did not alter his percentile. At the end of the intervention, families reported greater confidence in carrying out activities with their children and students reported the experience as relevant to their professional training. Conclusion: The practical application of FCC proved promising in the academic context of pediatric physical therapy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
