Limited 2020 overview may inform PT updates; leaves open need for post-2020 syntheses.
Practitioners need access to and the ability to openly discuss advances in practice and concepts as they apply to the practice of cardiovascular and pulmonary physical therapy (PT). Lack of accessibility to research literature, limited personal time, or insufficient knowledge to adequately review the breadth of literature published each year can hinder this process. This article provides a limited overview of cardiovascular and pulmonary research published in 2020 that the authors believe most important and relevant or speaks to the volume or trend of current topics in the clinical practice of cardiovascular and pulmonary PT. Each topic area is followed by brief overview of clinical relevance and was open to discussion with the participants present at the 2021 Combined Sections Meeting held virtually on February 24, 2021.
