Clinical profile

Bridging the gap between science and clinical practice is one of Per Kjaer’s passions. He has been instrumental in improving evidence-based practice in the musculoskeletal area by leading quality assurance working groups on safety in the management of neck pain, in clinical reasoning, in the classification of people with low back pain, and in the effect of manual therapy on low back pain. Per has organised and held more than 40 workshops in physiotherapy practice with the purpose of disseminating and implementing the results of this work (see Table 2 below under Teaching).

Per Kjaer was a member of the Danish National Indicator Project Physiotherapy that set the standards for optimal treatment of people with back pain. He has also been the leader of a number of groups tasked with the responsibility of developing clinical guidelines: one for safety in the treatment of neck pain (initiated by the Danish Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy Association), another for the examination of people with neck pain (initiated by the Danish Physiotherapy Association), and another for non-surgical treatment of cervical radiculopathy (initiated by the Danish Health and Medicines Authority). Per has recently been involved as a professional writer in multidisciplinary working groups, with responsibility for collating all relevant information for the development of a clinical guidelines for non-surgical treatment for lumbar radiculopathy and for cervical radiculopathy, which are now available in both Danish and English. Per has received awards for his work in researching and developing these clinical guidelines.
