Introduction[edit | edit source]

Reading research is an essential skill in providing high-quality healthcare. In the rehabilitation community, putting evidence-based research into practice is necessary for the improvement of patient outcomes and overall growth of the field.[1]

Due to the ever-increasing number of studies being published regularly, rehabilitation professionals must navigate through an abundant pool of information to identify relevant and reliable studies. Efficient reading can help filter research, so a practitioner can save time and focus only on the most appropriate information for specific clinical applications.

Multiple studies state that academic reading is significant, yet often underrated. Reading is a fundamental skill that posts benefits across all professions and it requires both effort and practice.[2][3] [4]
