Abstract

This volume focuses on a second key element for the implementation of self-management: musculoskeletal health literacy—what it is, why it matters, and how to assess and support it in practice. It reviews key domains (accessing, understanding, appraising and applying health information), highlights available tools, and identifies gaps for future measurement. Practical strategies help align communication with patients’ needs to enhance safe self-management.
