内容説明

This volume looks at the management of otherwise healthy people with regional musculoskeletal symptoms that cause occupational incapacity. The first section provides general information on musculoskeletal disease. The following sections provide practical information describing how to approach the patient and useless versus useless treatment. The last section deals with issues which cannot be ignored when dealing with occupational disability and is written in "broad strokes" so that the information is not dated or of limited applicability. The book also has insights into how people perceive and cope with musculoskeletal illness and how these perceptions impact on the physician-patient interaction. It also has guidelines on management and diagnosis of specific regional musculoskeletal illness and on disability determination.
