What this paper is
This is a theoretical perspective about making clinical rehabilitation research and its systematic reviews more relevant to patients, caregivers, and clinicians. It describes an exploratory literature scan and proposes frameworks, but it reports no patient outcomes, no intervention results, and no evidence a therapist can apply to practice.
