Examination of Musculoskeletal Injuries, Fourth Edition With Web
Resource, guides current and future athletic trainers and
rehabilitation professionals through the examination and evaluation
of musculoskeletal injuries both on and off the field. The text
presents injury examination strategies in on-site, acute, and
clinical settings and provides the information on mastering the
skills needed for the Board of Certification examination for
athletic trainers as determined by the sixth edition of Athletic
Training Role Delineation Study/Practice Analysis for entry-level
athletic trainers. This updated fourth edition contains
foundational information on a wide spectrum of injuries and the
appropriate tests for examining and diagnosing them. Readers will
learn to obtain an accurate injury history from the patient,
inspect the injury and related areas, test motion control, palpate
both bone and soft tissues, and examine function in order to gauge
the player's readiness to return to play. The fourth edition also
includes the following enhancements: * A new online video library
contains more than 51 short video clips that correspond to and
demonstrate evaluation techniques for various musculoskeletal
disorders found throughout the text. * Full-color photos and
medical artwork have been added throughout the text to clarify
testing techniques and enhance knowledge of relevant body
structures. * Substantial updates provide the most recent
evidence-based clinical information. * An expanded selection of
special tests and injury-specific examinations are now presented in
a more accessible format and include a photo or video, description
of the purpose, patient and clinician positions for the test,
procedures performed, and possible outcomes. The content of

Resource, has been restructured and focused to provide applicable
information in a straightforward manner. Part I is aimed at
entry-level students and presents general and introductory skills
for each component of injury examination, including basic
terminology and a breakdown of the examination procedure. Each
component is then explored in depth along with general purposes and
techniques. Part I ends by incorporating the various components
into a systematic strategy for examination based on severity of
injury and environment. Part II then applies the principles learned
in the previous chapters to the recognition and examination of
injuries organized by specific regions of the body. Each chapter
includes strategies for examination immediately after an injury as
well as examinations seen later in a clinical setting. To assist
student comprehension and knowledge retention, key terms are in
boldface throughout the text and are defined in the glossary.

and highlight important information. The web resource houses
printable tables of special tests, examination checklists and forms
that students can use in laboratory work and review sessions, and a

of ancillary materials featuring a test package, instructor guide,
and presentation package plus image bank. Examination of
Musculoskeletal Injuries, Fourth Edition With Web Resource, is an
essential resource ffor students of athletic training and therapy
as well as current practitioners in the field who wish to use
evidence-based procedures in their clinical practice to ensure safe
and accurate diagnoses of injuries.
