Product Description
Product Description
Every chapter is based on outcome studies and evidence-based orthopaedics. Each region of the body is reviewed with individual chapters covering functional anatomy, fractures and dislocations, nerve entrapments, and common orthopaedic problems specific to that joint. Sections are devoted to basic science, common disease manifestations, modalities, and a wide variety of specialty topics and make this a particularly well-rounded, quick and easy reference.
It provides a quick yet comprehensive review for those taking their orthopaedic or manual therapy specialty board exams. Furthermore, it is a convenient reference for students and clinicians preparing for clinical rotations or state board examinations and is a valuable refresher for practicing physical therapists.
The responsibilities of physical therapists are growing to include the realm of initial evaluations and differential diagnosis and this text includes chapters relevant to and overlapping with orthopaedic surgery and rehabilitation, including recognition, evaluation, and rehabilitation of a variety of fractures, operative procedures, and frequently seen disease processes.

All-in reference book for the orthopaedic internships,
By Cosmic bandito (à l'etranger) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Secrets (The Secrets Series) (Paperback)
Whereas you need a quick answer or a refresher on any given subject, this book should be with you, especially if you are a beginner practitioner, an intern or if you have no time nor access to internet or a large library at your workplace. Invaluable evidence-based info here, and easy to find.

Good book for Orthopedic PT's,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Secrets (Paperback)
This is a comprehensive book on orthopedic physical therapy topics written in a unique "question and answer" format. What's great about this book is that the information presented is recent and is based on evidence-based practise and current research. This book will serve a great reference for the novice and experienced clinician

Effective index,
By Mark R. Bussell - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Secrets (Paperback)
Excellent review for ortho..You can essentially use this as an effective index to direct you to weak areas that demand research and further exploration. Really a must have. Very considerate, efficient, not pompous, and direct.

I utilized this book to prepare for the physical therapy OCS exam and what a source. It was a great text to guide your thinking and elaborates on various areas (ie Pharmocology, Ragiology, wound healing...). I could not have studied without it.
