内容説明

This expanded update of the first edition on the basic concepts and principles of geriatric rehabilitation describes the modifications essential to adapting clinical intervention to the elderly to achieve effective therapeutic outcomes in geriatric physiotherapy. Pharmacologic aspects are included, such as drug interactions and effects on molecular activity. This book is a single source for the basic applied science of normal ageing, common medical and functional problems among the elderly, and the implications for therapeutic investigation. It also includes research on gerontological motor problems and covers pharmacologic aspects such as drug ineractions and effects on molecular activity. It should prove to be of interest to physiotherapists, gerontologists, and teachers of geriatric PT courses.
