Prepare for practice with the book tailored specifically for
physical therapist assistants! Physical Rehabilitation for the
Physical Therapist Assistant provides a clear, easy-to-read,
evidence-based guide to the PTA's role in patient management,
covering the core concepts related to physical rehabilitation and
emphasizing the PTA's role in intervention. A treatment-oriented
focus addresses each of the four categories of the American
Physical Therapy Association (APTA) Preferred Practice Patterns:
musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, and integumentary.
The final section of the book addresses interventions which overlap
many practice patterns. Written by rehabilitation experts Michelle
Cameron, MD, PT and Linda Monroe, MPT, in consultation with Susan
Schmidt, a practicing PTA, and Carla Gleaton, the director of a PTA
education program, this text will be a valuable resource both in
the classroom and in professional practice. Comprehensive,
evidence-based coverage of rehabilitation includes sections on
pathology; examination; evaluation, diagnosis, and prognosis;
clinical signs, and intervention -- emphasizing the PTA's role in
intervention. Unique! A consistent, organized approach covers
physical therapy intervention by disorder, with full discussions of
each condition found in a single chapter. Format follows the Guide
to Physical Therapist Practice, 2nd Edition so you become familiar
with the terminology used in therapy practice. Clinical Pearls
highlight key information. Unique! Full-color illustrations clearly
demonstrate pathologies and interventions. Case studies with
discussion questions guide you through specific patient
interactions to build your clinical reasoning skills. Glossaries in
each chapter define key terms to build your clinical vocabulary.
Unique! Student resources on the companion Evolve website enhance
your learning with vocabulary-building exercises, boards-style
practice test questions, examples of commonly used forms, and
references from the book linked to Medline.
