How is the rating of perceived effort reported in anterior cruciate ligament and knee osteoarthritis rehabilitation studies? A scoping review
"Familiarization", "anchoring", "instructions", "local vs. whole-body RPE", and "moment of RPE recording" were not consistently reported in studies, limiting the validity of the method and study replication and making it difficult for clinicians to interpret and apply the method.
