Commensurate with an emphasis on evidence-based practice and health
competencies to improve patient outcomes, get a solid foundation in
cardiovascular and pulmonary physiology and rehabilitation!
Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy: Evidence and
Practice, 6th Edition provides a holistic, person-centered approach
to the spectrum of cardiovascular and pulmonary physical therapy.
From examination and evaluation to interventions, this book guides
you through the health promotion strategies for maximizing
patients' health and wellbeing, in conjunction with managing the
needs of patients with acute and chronic conditions, those in
intensive care units, and of special populations such as children
and elders. Selected case studies translate related scientific
research into evidence-based practice and enhance clinical decision
making. Now including an enhanced eBook version (with print
purchase), this text details the latest best practices to help
achieve the best physical therapy outcomes. Coverage of
evidence-based practice includes the latest research from leading
top-tier journals to support physical therapist clinical reasoning
and decision making. Realistic scenarios and case examples show the
application of concepts to evidence-based practice. Holistic
approach supports treating the whole person rather than just the
symptoms of a disease or disorder, covering medical, physiological,
psychological, psychosocial, therapeutic, practical, and
methodological aspects. Full-color photos and illustrations enhance
your understanding of the book's concepts, ideas, and management
considerations. Emphasis on the terminology and guidelines of the
APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice keeps the book
consistent with the practice standards in physical therapy,
including the International Classification of Functioning,
Disability and Health. Primary and secondary cardiovascular and
pulmonary conditions are emphasized, along with their co-existence.
Multimorbidity focus is used rather than a single-disease
framework, with attention to implications for assessment,
management, and evaluation. Integrated approach to oxygen transport
demonstrates how the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems function
interdependently to support all organ systems. Key terms and review
questions in each chapter focus your learning on important concepts
and translating these into practice. NEW! Updated content reflects
the latest research and clinical practice in the field. NEW! eBook
version included only with print purchase allows you to access all
the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search,
