The WCPT glossary has been developed to support WCPT’s work on policies, guidelines and other resources (eg database of experts, common data set), to ensure consistency in terminology and to aid international interpretation. It has also been developed as a resource in its own right for member organisations, regions and subgroups to use.
WCPT is encouraging the use of the international terms where applicable.
Terms have been fully referenced to original sources. Where terms have been developed by WCPT they should be referenced to the WCPT glossary:
World Confederation for Physical Therapy. WCPT Glossary: Terms used in WCPT’s policies and resources. London, UK: WCPT; 2011.
