Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur patienter upplevde en sjukgymnasts metodik i samband med utlärningen av hemträningsprogram de fått ordinerade i rehabiliterande syfte för sina skador. Dessutom undersöktes hur väl sjukgymnastens metodik gällande hemträningsprogram stämde överens med tidigare forsknings rekommendationer, och ifall samband kunde ses mellan patienternas följsamhet och de faktorer som påverkar den. Undersökningen var en modifierad fallstudie och genomfördes med relativt högt strukturerade telefonintervjuer. Undersökningsgruppen bestod av sju patienter som alla hade ordinerats hemträningsprogram ifrån samma sjukgymnast, för olika typer av skador. Resultatet av studien visade på att patienterna upplevde mottagningens metodik som väl fungerande. Sjukgymnastens metodik stämde även väl överens med tidigare forskningsrekommendationer för en hög följsamhet utav träningsprogrammen bland patienterna. Samband mellan patienternas följsamhet och tidigare forsknings rekommendationer visade sig vara starka.

The purpose of this study was to examine how patients experienced the methodology concerning the home exercise programmes they have been prescribed by a physiotherapist in rehabilitation purpose due to their injuries. Furthermore it was examined how well the methodology regarding the home exercise programmes made by the physiotherapist agreed with recommendations according to previous research studies, and if a connection could be drawn to the patients’ determination to comply with the exercise programmes. The study was a modification of a case study and it was conducted by relatively high structured telephone interviews. The target group for the study consisted of seven patients, all which had been prescribed with home exercise programmes by the same physiotherapist due their different injuries. The result of the study implies that the patients experienced the methodology of the physiotherapist reception as well-functioning. The methodology of the physiotherapist was also fall in line with what previous recommendations from scientific studies regards important in order to achieve a high compliance of the exercise programmes among the patients. The connection between the compliance of the patients and recommendations made based on previous studies appears to be highly related.
