<li>Addresses the important considerations in designing a rehabilitation program for the patient with a musculoskeletal injury</li>
<li>Provides a guide-based overview of the rehabilitation process as well as an introduction to Clinical Reasoning and Algorithmic Thinking in rehabilitation</li>
</ul>
Treating Physiologic Impairments During Rehabilitation<ul><li>Presents information on various physical impairments that may need to be addressed as part of the rehabilitation process</li></ul>
The Tools of Rehabilitation<ul>
<li>Provides an overview of important rehabilitation tools and strategies</li>
<li>Delivers detailed coverage of how these interventions should be incorporated into a rehabilitation program to achieve the individualized treatment goals for patients with musculoskeletal pathologies</li>
</ul>
Intervention Strategies for Specific Injuries<ul><li>Covers specific rehabilitation techniques and interventions applied to the treatment of a wide variety of regional musculoskeletal injuries, dysfunctions, and post-operative conditions</li></ul>
Special Consideration for Specific Patient Populations<ul><li>Discusses treatment considerations for specific patient populations, such as the geriatric patient, pediatric patient, and physically active female</li></ul>
This edition is enhanced by a new full-color presentation, as well as the inclusion of valuablelearning aids, such as clinical pearls, protocol grids, algorithms, learning objectives at the beginning of eachchapter, and end-of-chapter treatment guidelines and references.
