This book is designed to act as an off-the-shelf guide to assist
health care providers evaluating patients presenting with common
musculoskeletal complaints in the primary care setting. The result
of a $750,000 research grant that studied how comfortable primary
care providers felt when treating musculoskeletal conditions, this
book addresses the common finding that family physcians felt
unprepared despite frequently seeing these types of complaints.
Since the primary care physician operates in a different
environment than an orthopedic surgeon, the approach to the patient
presenting in the primary care clinic must also differ from the
specialist's approach. This book has been divided into chapters
covering major body regions and injuries, and each chapter
includes: Red flags, which are conditions requiring immediate
treatment and referral; basic anatomy of the body region; Clinical
evaluation techniques and tear sheets for use during examination;
Common clinical diagnoses; and disposition of the patient
illustrated with helpful flow charts.
