Abstract
Purpose: We have developed children and young people (CYP) community-based triage (called RightPath) based on a validated adult MSK model developed by Pennine MSK Partnership Ltd (PMSKP). RightPath aims to use paediatric physiotherapists to identify CYP with MSK pathology and triage them to the appropriate service (rheumatology, orthopaedics, or urgent care), managing those who do not need specialist referral appropriately within the community (by physiotherapists and podiatrists). Triage and referral guidance was developed in partnership with MSK specialists and primary care. The pilot tested safety, feasibility, acceptability, and transferability of triage in the community in two UK localities with emphasis on the educational requirements of the triage guidance for healthcare professionals who may not be expert in CYP MSK disease.
