Surface palpation is a valuable method for clinicians in detecting
and treating a variety of injuries and medical conditions. A
Clinical Guide to Surface Palpation, Second Edition With HKPropel
Online Video, is a comprehensive guide that will help both students
and health care professionals become proficient in these techniques
so they can successfully assess and treat their patients. Using a
simple step-by-step approach, A Clinical Guide to Surface
Palpation, Second Edition, provides concise explanations of
palpation techniques, organized by regions of the body. A brief
overview of skeletal and muscle anatomy is offered for each
region-including coverage of bony tissue, soft tissue, and
neurovascular structures-to facilitate a better understanding of
the relationship between structures and how they function together,
leading to improved clinical examination skills. Tips for palpating
bony landmarks are also discussed. Formerly titled A Clinical Guide
to Musculoskeletal Palpation, this second edition has been expanded
to include information on visceral palpation. One of very few
textbooks that teaches readers how to examine the abdomen and
pelvis, it recognizes the profound effect these structures can have
on the function of the neuromuscular system. The visual aspect of
the second edition has also been significantly upgraded. Anatomical
overlays have been added to the numerous photos depicting proper
technique to provide a clear view of the exact structures lying
beneath the surface. More than 50 related online video clips,
delivered through HKPropel, have also been added to showcase real
demonstrations of common clinical palpation techniques. The skills
are demonstrated in a step-by-step format to help readers
understand the nuances of difficult techniques. This text also
includes several learning aids to enhance anatomical knowledge and
clinical skills. Clinical Pearls and notes throughout the text
offer clinically relevant guidance alongside information on body
structure identification and assessment. Each chapter concludes
with a case study presenting a common clinical condition as well as
review questions that prompt readers to apply their new
understanding and proficiency. The most comprehensive resource of
its kind, A Clinical Guide to Surface Palpation, Second Edition,
fosters a strong foundation in anatomical knowledge to optimize the
development and execution of palpation skills. It is a must-have
for all practitioners, instructors, and students in the manual
therapy professions. CE exam available! For certified
professionals, a companion continuing education exam can be
completed after reading this book. A Clinical Guide to Surface
Palpation Online CE Exam, Second Edition, may be purchased
separately or as part of the A Clinical Guide to Surface Palpation,
Second Edition With CE Exam, package that includes both the book
and the exam. Note: A code for accessing the online videos is
included with all new print books.
