Qualitative analysis of SDM in pediatric PT
This post shows how to run a qualitative analysis of shared decision making (SDM) in pediatric physical therapy and turn focus-group transcripts into actionable implementation strategies. The June 30, 2026 PLOS One study (Limmen et al.) used six focus groups (adolescents, parents, pediatric physical therapists) plus a 46-respondent qualitative survey to adapt a goal-based SDM model and propose CFIR-ERIC matched implementation strategies. If you analyze interviews, transcripts, or surveys for clinical implementation (program managers, UX researchers, policy analysts), you will get: 1) a concise mapping of methods and findings from the study, 2) practical implications for running and comparing segment-level SDM analyses, and 3) a reproducible 7-step workflow to implement the same synthesis inside Evidano (Evidano). Read on to see which Evidano features (transcription with PII redaction, codebook import, thematic and cross-segment analysis, co-occurrence visualizations, and secure data handling) speed the work and preserve research rigor.
