Here's a powerful quick reference and clinical tool - small enough
to fit into your pocket, yet complete enough to cover any
assessment test you need to perform! Detailing every test included
in Illustrated Orthopedic Physical Assessment, 3rd Edition, this
handy, thoroughly illustrated pocket guide includes only the
essential information you need to know. Information for each test
is presented in a consistent manner for quick reference, and
includes: name of the test, alternate names for the test, suspected
syndrome, concise description of the testing procedure, clinical
pearl, and photo(s) of the procedure. Plus, just as in the parent
text, each test also contains a corresponding orthopedic gamut
which provides a summary of key points in a concise list, serving
as a diagnostic rubric for use in patient exams. Fits in your lab
coat pocket, giving you easy access to frequently used assessment
and testing information. Every test from the parent textbook,
Illustrated Orthopedic Physical Assessment, 3rd Edition, is
included in this pocket guide. A consistent format for each test
(the same format as the parent text) ensures that you'll find the
information you need quickly and easily. Clinical pearls appear
with almost every test, detailing author's own clinical experience
and providing valuable insight to both students and practitioners.
Nearly 400 orthopedic gamuts concisely cover anatomy, motion
assessment, muscle function, and imaging elements - essential
concepts for effective assessment and diagnostic decision-making. A
complete index of tests appears on the inside cover in alphabetical
order, as well as by body system, so you can see at a glance which
tests are covered and where to find them. Nearly 500 illustrations
(line drawings and photographs) show key moves of each test, and
other necessary maneuvers, anatomy, and pathologies. A glossary of
key abbreviations is included at the end of the book, familiarizing
you with common clinical terms and notation. A comprehensive
bibliography provides helpful references for further research and
study. All-new photos clearly illustrate every assessment test.
Updated content ensures you have the latest assessment information
at your fingertips.
