Worobey L, et al. – Researchers designed a randomized control trials to determine the adequacy of a web–based transfer training module at improving transfer technique across three groups: web–based training, in–person training, and a waitlist control group (WLCG). Secondarily, to evaluate subject factors that can be applied to predict improvements in transfer ability after training. It was concluded that transfer training can enhance technique with changes retained within a short follow–up window, even among experienced wheelchair users. Web–based transfer training indicated comparable improvements to in–person training. With almost half of the United States population consulting online resources before a healthcare professional, web–based training may be an effective method to increase knowledge translation.
