Product Description
Product Description
In the new third edition of this popular multidisciplinary text, Elaine Atkins, Jill Kerr and Emily Goodlad continue to advance the field of orthopaedic medicine. Always inspired by the work of Dr James Cyriax, this edition, renamed A Practical Approach to Orthopaedic Medicine, updates techniques and incorporates recent research discoveries into the text. There are also self assessment tasks to test your understanding of orthopaedic medicine on EVOLVE, an online electronic learning solution site designed to work alongside textbooks to stimulate clinical reasoning and to enhance learning.
The introductory chapters deal with the principles of orthopaedic medicine, with the following chapters taking the clinician through the practice of orthopaedic medicine joint by joint.
This edition includes:
- Substantially revised chapters
- Extended evidence-based commentaries underpinning indications and contraindications to treatment of spinal lesions
- Expanded critique of the treatment of peripheral joints including recent advances in the approach to tendinopathy
- Clearly described and illustrated injection and manual techniques
- New page layout for easy navigation
- Foreword by Monica Kesson
A Practical Approach to Orthopaedic Medicine is a complete reference source that provides the most up-to-date principles and practice for students and postgraduate medical practitioners, physiotherapists and other allied health professionals, including podiatrists and osteopaths. It is essential reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Latest version well worth it,
By Jon A (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Practical Approach to Orthopaedic Medicine: Assessment, Diagnosis, Treatment (Paperback)
This is the third addition of this popular title that forms the bedrock of the orthopaedic medicine approach and post-graduate course programmes. The evidence base has been re-explored providing the clinician with excellent theory sections on tissue healing for example - that provide the busy clinician with a sound basis for applying treatment techniques. The chapters are clearly presented with excellent illustrations, enhanced by new photographs and arrows (to indicate direction of travel) for some images. The book is also supported by 'evolve' which is an online resource for clinicians wishing to test their knowledge of the subject. This new edition has a fresh feel and is a worthy addition to the GP or physiotherapist wishing to develop their MSK skills.
