With detailed descriptions of orthopedic surgeries, Rehabilitation
for the Postsurgical Orthopedic Patient, 3rd Edition provides
current, evidence-based guidelines to designing effective
rehabilitation strategies. Coverage of each condition includes an
overview of the orthopedic patient's entire course of treatment
from pre- to post-surgery. For each phase of rehabilitation, this

complications and precautions, and appropriate therapeutic
procedures. New to this edition are a full-color design and new
chapters on disc replacement, cartilage replacement, hallux valgus,
and transitioning the running athlete. Edited by Lisa Maxey and Jim
Magnusson, and with chapters written by both surgeons and physical
therapists, Rehabilitation for the Postsurgical Orthopedic Patient
provides valuable insights into the use of physical therapy in the
rehabilitation process. Comprehensive, evidence-based coverage
provides an overview of the orthopedic patient's entire course of

vignettes with critical thinking questions help you develop

the expected time span and goals for each phase. Evidence-based
coverage includes the latest clinical research to support treatment
decisions. Overview of soft tissue and bone healing considerations
after surgery helps you understand the rationale behind the
timelines for the various physical therapy guidelines. A
Troubleshooting section in each chapter details potential pitfalls
in the recovery from each procedure. Over 300 photos and line
drawings depict concepts, procedures, and rehabilitation. Detailed
tables break down therapy guidelines and treatment options for
quick reference. Expert contributors include surgeons describing
the indications and considerations for surgery as well as the
surgery itself, and physical or occupational therapists discussing
therapy guidelines. New coverage of current orthopedic surgeries
and rehabilitation includes topics such as disc replacement,
cartilage replacement, hallux valgus, and transitioning the running
athlete. New full-color design and illustrations visually reinforce
the content. Updated Suggested Home Maintenance boxes in every
chapter provide guidance for patients returning home. References
