Physical therapists, as integral members of the multidisciplinary team in cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation, should be knowledgeable about methods for assessing outcomes for their patients, and they need to understand the value of aggregated data in improving interventions. Definitions are discussed, and appropriate data used to monitor function are identified, including data used in the assessment of well-being. Results of outcome studies from current cardiac and pulmonary literature are presented. A discussion of how to select outcomes to assess and the value of outcome information for program management is included. Therapists are in a position to encourage and participate in widespread, collaborative measurement of disease-specific clinical outcomes, patient functioning, and well-being, which should improve the effectiveness and efficiency of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
物理治疗师作为心脏和肺部康复多学科团队的重要成员，应了解评估患者治疗效果的方法，并且需要明白汇总数据在改进干预措施方面的价值。文中讨论了相关定义，并确定了用于监测功能的适当数据，包括用于评估健康状况的数据。还介绍了当前心脏和肺部领域文献中的治疗效果研究结果。文中还讨论了如何选择要评估的治疗效果以及治疗效果信息对项目管理的价值。治疗师有能力鼓励并参与针对特定疾病的临床治疗效果、患者功能和健康状况进行广泛的协作测量，这将提高心肺康复的有效性和效率。
