Which factors predict outcome from specialist physiotherapy for functional motor disorder? Prognostic modelling of the Physio4FMD intervention
Age and perceptions of symptom control were weak predictors of outcome from specialist physiotherapy. In contrast, a number of factors commonly believed to predict poorer treatment response, including illness duration and levels of pain and fatigue, were not related to the outcomes measured in this study.
