Social media as a bridge between science and practice? Physiotherapists’ perceptions from a qualitative study
Objective: To explore physiotherapists’ perceptions of integrating scientific knowledge into clinical practice and the role of social media in supporting evidence-based rehabilitation. Design: Qualitative exploratory study. Setting: Online interviews. Participants: Twenty-eight physiotherapists representing a range of clinical specialities. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted via Google Meet, lasting on average 25 minutes. Sessions were recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis. Coding was performed independently by two researchers, with triangulation to ensure trustworthiness. Data collection continued until thematic saturation was reached. Results: Two overarching themes were identified, comprising 10 sub-themes. (1) Application of scientific knowledge in clinical practice: participants recognised the importance of research evidence but reported barriers such as limited time, complex academic language and lack of institutional support. Strategies to overcome these challenges included targeted reading, continuing professional development and peer exchange. (2) Social media as a source of scientific information: platforms such as Instagram and YouTube were valued for accessibility, brevity and opportunities to share knowledge, but concerns were raised regarding superficiality, misinformation and commercial interests. Conclusion: Physiotherapists value scientific knowledge in clinical decision making but face persistent obstacles to its systematic use. Social media was perceived as a complementary resource for professional development, provided it is approached critically. Enhancing scientific and media literacy may improve the safe integration of digital content into evidence-based practice.
