- W2609333462 abstract "This study examined the awareness, attitude, belief, and utilization of physiotherapy services (PS) in a Nigerian sample. This was a cross-sectional survey involving 885 adult residents of Nnewi in southeastern Nigeria. Awareness of physiotherapy existence was high (61.8%). Many of the respondents (29.7%) got their information about physiotherapy from hospitals and 20.8% thought that government should be responsible for creating awareness about physiotherapy. The majority of respondents (89.6%) felt they needed to know more about physiotherapy while 56% felt their current knowledge about physiotherapy was enough to advise others on PS. Almost all the participants (93%) thought that physiotherapy should be in all hospitals, while 41.3% and 35.6% respectively reported physiotherapy to be always and sometimes effective. Of those who had received physiotherapy, 22.7% and 20.2% felt satisfied and impressed respectively. The majority of respondents (70.5%) claimed they would recommend PS, and 61.1% stated that they would prefer PS to indigenous health services (IHS). Out of these, 43.2% claimed they would discourage the use of IHS. In terms of cost effectiveness, 44.8% preferred physiotherapy to IHS. Ignorance (38.7%) was the most frequently reported reason for preferring IHS to physiotherapy. IHS was reported to have done more harm than good 55-99% of the time (31.8%). Awareness of physiotherapy existence was fair. Participants showed positive belief and attitude, and utilization was high. There is however still a need to raise awareness about physiotherapy and its existence." @default.
