Rate My Professor Emmah Baque

Baque's research focuses on paediatric rehabilitation, emphasizing physical activity measurement and therapeutic exercise interventions for children with chronic conditions and disabilities. Her studies explore the validity of accelerometry for assessing physical activity intensity in children with cerebral palsy, the short- and long-term effects of play-based therapeutic exercise in children with bronchiectasis via multi-centre randomised controlled trials, and goal-directed physiotherapy for paediatric survivors of posterior fossa brain tumours. Notable publications include: Kohler et al., 'Goal-directed therapeutic exercise for paediatric posterior fossa brain tumour survivors: the PF Exercise randomised controlled trial' (2024); Howard et al., 'Diagnostic accuracy of the Hammersmith Neonatal Neurological Examination at 32-weeks postmenstrual age predicts cerebral palsy in high-risk neonates' (2023); Jones et al., 'Experiences of children with bronchiectasis and their parents during participation in the BREATH randomised controlled trial' (2024); Hams et al., 'Evaluating change in self-reported function and pain following physiotherapy management of children with hypermobility spectrum disorders' (2026); Jones et al., 'Barriers and facilitators of physical activity in children with bronchiectasis: Perspectives from children and parents' (2022); and Jones et al., 'Exercise as Therapy (BREATH): rationale and study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial' (2022). Baque has authored or co-authored 25 publications, accumulating over 290 citations on ResearchGate, with contributions appearing in journals such as Pediatric Research, BMJ Open, Frontiers in Pediatrics, and Physiotherapy. Her work advances evidence-based interventions in paediatric physiotherapy.
