Trauma is a serious public health problem worldwide and is the
leading cause of death among adults and children. Physiotherapists
play a key role in the interdisciplinary team caring for patients
with physical injury after a traumatic event. The aim of
Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy in Trauma: An Evidence-based Approach
is to encourage quality evidence-based physiotherapy management of
adult and paediatric survivors of trauma in an acute care setting
on a global level.The first edition of the book was written by
South African physiotherapy academics and clinical physiotherapists
with expertise in trauma care. This new edition involves the South
African writers from the first edition as well as a team of
international experts in trauma care across health care disciplines
(including surgeons, nurses, occupational therapists, dieticians,
pain experts, and social workers). The information shared in the
first edition has therefore been updated with more clinical
expertise and the latest available evidence. The new content in
this latest edition aims to make physiotherapists more aware of the
importance of considering how pain influences patients'
participation in therapy sessions, and of a team approach to
patient care (e.g. managing pain and planning of care) to ensure
the best possible outcomes for adult and paediatric patients with
traumatic injury, at hospital discharge.
