Brief Summary: This study is designed to assess how effective social media is in disseminating scientific knowledge to physiotherapists in Brazil The trial will include physiotherapists who treat at least three patients weekly and regularly use Instagram and WhatsApp Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups the experimental group will receive scientific content through Instagram while the control group will receive the same content via email Both groups will engage with the material for 10 weeks

The scientific content covers seven key topics related to physiotherapy such as musculoskeletal and sport rehabilitation and will be tailored to clinical practice For the Instagram group content will be shared via posts stories and reels while the email group will receive summaries and links to full articles The study aims to evaluate the impact of these interventions on participants39 engagement with scientific content and its application to clinical practice

Key outcomes will include the effectiveness of knowledge dissemination participant feedback on the audiovisual content and qualitative insights from interviews The study will follow a specific timeline with reassessment three months after the intervention to gauge long-term effects Data will be analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the intervention39s reach and feasibility
Detailed Description: This protocol details a randomized single-blind controlled trial to assess how effectively scientific content can be disseminated to Brazilian physiotherapists using social media Instagram The study will follow physiotherapists who treat at least three patients per week and use Instagram and WhatsApp regularly These participants will be randomized into two groups an experimental group receiving content via Instagram and a control group receiving the same information via email

The study will focus on seven areas relevant to physiotherapy practice including musculoskeletal rehabilitation cardiovascular care and womens health The content developed using scientific articles will be shared daily over 10 weeks For the Instagram group the content will be presented through various formats like posts stories and reels with visually engaging elements to boost retention The email group will receive daily summaries of the articles similar to a journal-style format

To maintain participant engagement both groups will receive weekly summaries and participants will be assessed on how well they apply the scientific content in practice The primary outcomes include the effectiveness of content dissemination participant engagement and knowledge retention evaluated through surveys interviews and technical assessments Qualitative interviews will explore participants experiences and the quality of the audiovisual materials used will be rated by participants

The trial will last for 10 weeks followed by an additional week for reassessment and a three-month follow-up Data will be analyzed quantitatively to measure the reach and effectiveness of the interventions with feasibility analyzed using the RE-AIM framework Qualitative data will be analyzed through thematic analysis ensuring an in-depth understanding of the interventions success This study aims to offer insights into the best methods for delivering scientific knowledge to healthcare professionals via digital platforms
