Lippincott (R) Connect Featured Title Purchase of the new print
edition of this Lippincott (R) Connect title includes access to the
digital version of the book, plus related materials such as videos
and multiple-choice Q&A and self-assessments. Clinically
focused, clearly written and vibrantly illustrated, this
introductory text equips students with a working knowledge of the
force-motion relationship within the musculoskeletal system and the
use of biomechanical principles in the evaluation and treatment of
musculoskeletal dysfunction in clinical settings. Content
progresses logically, introducing the basic terminology and
concepts of biomechanics and providing focused perspectives on the
biomechanics of tissues and structures, the biomechanics of joints
and applied biomechanics - with case studies throughout to
integrate biomechanical knowledge into clinical training for
patient care. This updated 5th Edition of Basic Biomechanics of the
Musculoskeletal System highlights the global relevance of
musculoskeletal biomechanics and features new full-color images
that demonstrate biomechanical movement with vivid detail. NEW! Two
new chapters familiarize students with biomechanical approaches to
the thoracic spine and rib cage, and typical postures (such as
squatting) and their biomechanical impact upon indigenous people
throughout the world. UPDATED! Revised content throughout acquaints
students with the most up-to-date and clinically relevant
perspectives. NEW! Full-color illustrations clarify structures and
movements with engaging detail. Clinical case studies help students
link biomechanical knowledge to practical applications. Lippincott
(R) Connect features: Full access to the digital version of the
book with the ability to highlight and take notes on key passages
for a more personal, efficient study experience. Carefully curated
resources, such as interactive diagrams, audio and video tutorials,
and self-assessment, all designed to facilitate further
comprehension. Lippincott (R) Connect also allows users to create
Study Collections to further personalize the study experience. With
Study Collections you can: Pool content from books across your
entire library into self-created Study Collections based on
discipline, procedure, organ, concept or other topics. Display
related text passages, video clips and self-assessment questions
from each book (if available) for efficient absorption of material.
Annotate and highlight key content for easy access later. Navigate
seamlessly between book chapters, sections, self-assessments, notes
and highlights in a single view/page.
Biomechanics applies the principles and rigor of engineering to the
mechanical properties of living systems. This book integrates the
classic fields of mechanics--statics, dynamics, and strength of
materials--using examples from biology and medicine. Fundamentals
of Biomechanics is excellent for teaching either undergraduates in
biomedical engineering programs or health care professionals
studying biomechanics at the graduate level. Extensively revised
from a successful first edition, the book features a wealth of
clear illustrations, numerous worked examples, and many problem
sets. The book provides the quantitative perspective missing from
more descriptive texts, without requiring an advanced background in
mathematics. It will be welcomed for use in courses such as
biomechanics and orthopedics, rehabilitation and industrial
engineering, and occupational or sports medicine.

book: Introduces the fundamental concepts, principles, and methods
that must be understood to begin the study of biomechanics
Reinforces basic principles of biomechanics with repetitive
exercises in class and homework assignments given throughout the
textbook Includes over 100 new problem sets with solutions and
illustrations
Con un enfoque clinico, claramente escrito y acompanado de cientos
de ilustraciones, Bases biomecanicas del sistema musculoesqueletico
brinda a los estudiantes conocimiento practico sobre la relacion
fuerza-movimiento en el sistema musculoesqueletico y el uso de los
principios biomecanicos en la evaluacion y el tratamiento de la
disfuncion musculoesqueletica en entornos clinicos. Esta 5. edicion
comienza con una introduccion a la terminologia de la biomecanica y
continua con sus conceptos basicos, proporcionando perspectivas
centradas en la biomecanica de los tejidos y las estructuras, la de
las articulaciones y la aplicada. Tambien contiene estudios de
casos para integrar los conocimientos biomecanicos en la formacion
clinica para la atencion al paciente. La obra esta dividida en tres
secciones. La primera, "biomecanica de los tejidos y estructuras
del sistema musculoesqueletico", cubre la mecanica basica del
hueso, el cartilago articular, los tendones y ligamentos, los
nervios perifericos y el musculo esqueletico. La segunda seccion
abarca la mecanica de las articulaciones y presenta los principales
sistemas articulares del cuerpo humano. Por ultimo, la tercera
seccion cubre algunos topicos importantes sobre biomecanica
aplicada e incluye cuatro capitulos sobre fijacion de fracturas,
artroplastia, marcha y posturas autoctonas.
