Examination of Orthopedic & Athletic Injuries
Five Stars!! Great Book!!“Was worth the cost! Have used it a lot in Undergrad and Graduate school. Has great photos and examples.”—Online Reviewer
 
Perform accurate evaluations of orthopedic injuries
The field’s standard resource brings you the most current knowledge through a superb combination of detailed illustrations and precise language to make even the most complicated concepts and techniques clear. Organized by body region, each chapter begins with a review of anatomy and biomechanics; proceeds through clinical evaluation, pathologies, and related special tests; and concludes with a discussion of on-field or initial management of specific injuries.
 
An access code inside new, printed texts unlocks range-of-motion animations and review questions for every chapter online.
 
Five Stars!! “Amazing book. A must-have reference for all musculoskeletal therapists.”—Jack, Online Reviewer
 
Five Stars!! Great! “Great book for those going into Athletic Training.”—T-A-L, Online Reviewer
 
  • Updated & Revised! Today’s most current information and best evidence-based practices
  • Expanded! “Intervention Strategies” for each condition, an overview of the approaches that can be used which serve as the foundation for integrating the diagnostic process with the subsequent interventions
  • New! “Clinical Correlations” tables, visual representations of key clinical findings and their relationships to pathologies and the key clinical findings associated with the pathology, facilitating the identification of which clinical tests may be used to develop the differential diagnosis
  • Updated! Muscle test procedures with instructions on the use of hand-held dynamometry for more precise assessment of muscular strength than traditional muscle testing to enhance the process of obtaining precise, objective strength measurements during the evaluation process and, when possible, comparing those measurements with those assessed during manual muscle testing
  • Updated! Information regarding the diagnostic accuracy of clinical testing, including additional representation of clinical prediction rules
  • Expanded! Emphasis on integrating outcome measures into the examination process and connecting the outcomes to brief descriptions of the interventions used
  • Conforming to or exceeding the National Athletic Training Educational Competencies
  • Procedures for over 185 special, neurological, ligamentous, and range of motion tests, with distinctive boxes for each type of test, including goniometry, resisted range of motion and manual muscle tests, clinical tests, and special tests
  • Precisely illustrated, step-by-step instructions for the correct position of patient and examiner, the evaluative procedure, positive test results, and implications
  • “Evaluative Findings” boxes, “Practical Evidence Boxes” and “Observational Findings” boxes
  • Unique palpation photographs with anatomical overlays to identify the underlying structure as well as tables of bony landmarks
  • Assessments of the reliability of each test with grades that'show the level of support from the available evidence
