The vast majority of orthopaedic care takes place not in the
orthopaedic surgeon's office or operating room but in various
primary care settings. Essential Orthopaedics, 2nd Edition,
provides concise, practical guidance from noted authority Dr. Mark
D. Miller, along with a stellar editorial team and numerous
contributors from both orthopaedics and primary care. Using a
templated, bulleted format, it delivers the information you need on
diagnosis, management, and appropriate referrals for adult and
pediatric patients. It's the perfect, everyday orthopaedic
reference for primary care physicians, physician assistants, nurse
practitioners, physical therapists, and athletic trainers in the
clinic or training room. Offers expert insight to help you
confidently diagnose and treat sprains, fractures, arthritis and
bursitis pain, and other musculoskeletal problems, or refer them
when appropriate. Covers topics of high importance in orthopaedic
care: anatomy and terminology, radiologic evaluation of orthopaedic
conditions, principles of fracture management, and special
considerations for the obese, the elderly, athletes, those with
comorbidities, and other patient populations. Features 40 videos
covering injections, physical examinations, common procedures, and
more. Includes 12 new chapters with current information on physical
exam of the hip and pelvis, femoroacetabular impingement (FAI),
athletic pubalgia, state-of-the-art surgical techniques, and new
imaging information, particularly in the area of musculoskeletal
ultrasound. Provides new ICD-10 codes for common orthopaedic
conditions. Features diagnostic algorithms, specific steps for
treatment, and full-color illustrations throughout. Enhanced eBook
version included with purchase, which allows you to access all of
the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of
devices
