The relationship between frontal plane gait variability and ankle range of motion in middle-aged and older persons with neuropathy (2009)
Journal Article
Carter, S., Richardson, J., Thies, S., Demott, T., & Ashton-Miller, J. (2009). The relationship between frontal plane gait variability and ankle range of motion in middle-aged and older persons with neuropathy. American Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 88(3), 210-215. https://doi.org/10.1097/PHM.0b013e318194fb3c

Objective: To explore the relationship between frontal plane ankle range of motion (ROM) and frontal plane control during gait, as determined by step-width variability and step-width range, among middle-aged
and older persons with peripheral neuropa... Read More about The relationship between frontal plane gait variability and ankle range of motion in middle-aged and older persons with neuropathy.

Simulating acceleration from stereophotogrammetry for medical device design (2009)
Journal Article
Tresadern, P., Thies, S., Kenney, L., Howard, D., Smith, C., Rigby, J., & Goulermas, J. (2009). Simulating acceleration from stereophotogrammetry for medical device design. Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 131(6), https://doi.org/10.1115/1.3118771

When designing a medical device based on lightweight accelerometers, the designer is faced with a number of questions in order to maximize performance while minimizing
cost and complexity: Where should the inertial unit be located? How many units ar... Read More about Simulating acceleration from stereophotogrammetry for medical device design.

Movement variability in stroke patients and controls performing two upper limb functional tasks: a new assessment methodology (2009)
Journal Article
Thies, S., Tresadern, P., Kenney, L., Smith, J., Howard, D., Goulermas, J., …Rigby, J. (2009). Movement variability in stroke patients and controls performing two upper limb functional tasks: a new assessment methodology. Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 6(2), https://doi.org/10.1186/1743-0003-6-2

Background: In the evaluation of upper limb impairment post stroke there remains a gap between detailed kinematic analyses with expensive motion capturing systems and common clinical assessment tests. In particular, although many clinical tests evalu... Read More about Movement variability in stroke patients and controls performing two upper limb functional tasks: a new assessment methodology.

An evaluation of radiographer performed and interpreted barium swallows and meals (2009)
Journal Article
Judson, E., & Nightingale, J. (2009). An evaluation of radiographer performed and interpreted barium swallows and meals. Clinical Radiology, 64, 807-813. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crad.2009.04.008

AIM: To determine whether radiographers are able to perform and interpret barium swallows and meals (BSM) to an
acceptable standard.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective audit was performed of all radiographer-managed BSMs over a 4-year period in... Read More about An evaluation of radiographer performed and interpreted barium swallows and meals.

An analysis of changes in practice introduced during an educational programme for practitioner-led swallowing investigations (2009)
Journal Article
Nightingale, J., & Mackay, S. (2009). An analysis of changes in practice introduced during an educational programme for practitioner-led swallowing investigations. Radiography, 15, 63-69. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.radi.2007.10.001

Aim: With an expanding elderly population, demand for radiological evaluation of dysphagia is likely to grow. Radiographers and speech and language therapists (SLTs) have been encouraged to advance their role and they now perform swallowing studies i...

'We nicked stuff from all over the place': policy transfer or muddling through? (2009)
Journal Article
Dwyer, P., & Ellison, N. (2009). 'We nicked stuff from all over the place': policy transfer or muddling through?. https://doi.org/10.1332/030557309X435862

This article explores current thinking about policy learning and transfer, using recent work on the 'Americanisation' of UK active labour market policies as a focus of discussion. While it is clear that the UK has learned from the US in certain respe... Read More about 'We nicked stuff from all over the place': policy transfer or muddling through?.

used to develop a pilot study. Data was col... Read More about Professional doctorate supervision : exploring student and supervisor experiences.

Exploring new nurse teachers' perception and understanding of reflection: An exploratory study. (2009)
Journal Article
Braine, M. (2009). Exploring new nurse teachers' perception and understanding of reflection: An exploratory study. Nurse Education in Practice, 9(4), 262-270. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nepr.2008.008

Reflection and the development of reflective practitioners are integral
in many nursing programmes. This study set out to explore new lecturers’ perception
and understanding of reflection and how well they are preparing nurses to be
reflective pra... Read More about Exploring new nurse teachers' perception and understanding of reflection: An exploratory study..
