Research
Professor Haxby Abbott’s research focuses on the management of common musculoskeletal conditions.
His research is based in the disciplines of clinical epidemiology, outcomes research, and health technology assessment. Projects have included:
- Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of exercise therapy and manual therapy interventions for hip and knee osteoarthritis
- Measurement properties of outcome measures in clinical practice
- Accuracy and validity of clinical examination procedures
- Physiotherapy interventions for chronic plantar heel pain
- The prognosis of low back pain
- The design of a computer program for the semi-automated analysis of spinal segmental motion
His research is funded by the Health Research Council of New Zealand, Lottery Grants Board, Arthritis New Zealand, and Physiotherapy New Zealand. His osteoarthritis research led to collaboration with the Southern District Health Board, with whom he led the initiation, development, and evaluation of the “Joint Clinic”, delivering an innovative practice model for the chronic care management of hip and knee osteoarthritis, funded by the National Health Board.
Professor Abbott is a former Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy (JOSPT) and the New Zealand Journal of Physiotherapy.
Professor Abbott was awarded the Carl Smith Medal and Rowheath Trust Award by the University in 2014, and a University of Otago Early Career Award for Distinction in Research in 2012. In 2010 Haxby was awarded a prestigious Sir Charles Hercus Health Research Fellowship by the Health Research Council of New Zealand. In 2006, he was the first New Zealander to earn Fellowship of the NZ College of Physiotherapy.
