OBJECTIVE: The development of a rigorous methodology based on 
published   results of clinical trials, evaluation of daily 
practice in France and   multidisciplinary expert opinion to 
elaborate recommendations for rehabilitation   interventions. 
METHODS AND RESULTS: The following describes the methodology of   
SOFMER (Societe Francaise de Medecine Physique et de Readaptation 
[French   Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation]) for 
developing recommendations   for rehabilitation interventions. 
The test case was developing recommendations   for rehabilitation 
in hip or knee osteoarthritis (OA) and hip or knee   arthroplasty. 
Physicians in rehabilitation, orthopedic surgery and rheumatology
identified, synthesized, and analyzed data from the literature by 
use of the   usual French system of grading trials (the French 
Agency for Accreditation and   Evaluation in Healthcare [ANAES] 
scale). The data were published results of   comparative 
controlled studies such as randomized controlled trials, 
controlled   clinical trials, cohort studies, case control 
studies, reviews of clinicaltrials, and case series, as well 
as uncontrolled cohort studies. The resulting   recommendations 
were presented to the three annual French national congresses 
of   rehabilitation, rheumatology, and orthopedic surgery for 
comment and for   adapting to French professional practice. 
Finally, a panel of multidisciplinary experts (physicians in 
physical medicine and rehabilitation, rheumatologists,   
orthopedic surgeons, general practitioners, physical 
therapists, social workers,   podologists, occupational 
therapists, nurses, and patients) validated the   recommendations. 
CONCLUSION: The SOFMER methodology could be an interesting tool
for use in developing recommendations elaborated by all the 
concerned medical   and surgical specialists in the wide domain 
of rehabilitation.  ( 10   Refs.)
