We are excited to announce that the PEDro website is now available in Greek.
This enhancement means that PEDro has 17 language sections: English, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Portuguese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Tamil, Arabic, Ukrainian, Polish, Romanian and Greek. Users can select their preferred language with the language selector in the header.
Producing the Greek section of the PEDro website has been a real team effort. We are grateful to the following people who helped with translation: Yiannis Sotiralis and Konstantinos Sakellariou from Hellenic OMT.Edu.
We invite all physiotherapists whose primary language is Greek to visit the PEDro website at pedro.org.au.
You can use the PEDro website to SEARCH for research articles that answer your clinical questions, BROWSE the latest research in your area of interest, LEARN more about using PEDro and skills for evidence-based practice, access useful RESOURCES, or find out more ABOUT this invaluable global resource.
PEDro has three search pages (Advanced, Simple and Consumer). We strongly encourage health professionals to use the Advanced Search. This is why the SEARCH buttons in the header, footer and PEDro navigation wheel take you directly to the Advanced Search page. The Advanced Search page contains 13 fields to define search terms with precision. Those who are new to searching may like to begin with the Simple Search, which contains a single text field. Patients and other users of physiotherapy can access the Consumer Search, which has less technical language. You can click through to the Simple and Consumer search pages from the PEDro Advanced Search page.
The BROWSE page gives you access to the latest Evidence in your inbox monthly feeds. This is a curated collection of recent trials, reviews and guidelines grouped by 15 areas of clinical practice. Scroll down to subscribe to PEDro’s Evidence in your inbox. The latest research will be emailed to you each time PEDro is updated. Subscription is free.
The LEARN page gives you access to tutorials, frequently asked questions, search help, PEDro statistics, indexing criteria and codes, the PEDro Top 20 Trials (available in the English, Portuguese and Spanish sections), World-Wide Journal Club (only available in the English section), the latest news (available in the English and Portuguese sections) and the “You Ask #PEDroAnswers” campaign (only available in the English section). For tips on PEDro searching using the Advanced Search page we suggest you visit the “You Ask #PEDroAnswers” campaign page. The World-Wide Journal Club page includes instructions and materials to facilitate the translation of research findings into clinical practice.
The RESOURCES page includes tools to help you use PEDro and implement evidence-based practice. These are the PEDro scale, confidence interval calculator, filters for referencing software, useful links, publications about PEDro (only available in the English section), systematic review summaries published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (only available in the English section), newsletter archive (available in the English and Portuguese sections) and press release archive (only available in the English section).
