Abstract
- Deaf sport involves the practice of sports performed by deaf athletes, contributing to the development of self-esteem, quality of life and greater social participation of members of the deaf community. Thus, physical therapy performance plays a fundamental role in maintaining and improving the functional capacity of this population. Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) is a process that integrates the best scientific evidence, the physical therapist's clinical experience and the patient's preferences, aiming to offer an adequate and efficient service and treatment, guaranteeing quality of care. Thus, EBP should be used by professionals in clinical practice with the deaf athlete population. However, no studies are found in the literature that highlight its use by professionals working with this population.
