Description

In an era of never-ending debate over managed care and the containment of health care costs, this reference provides authoritative guidelines for strengthening the scientific evidence on which future medical rehabilitation practices will be based. Authored by a group of distinguished researchers, this volume examines conceptual and methodological issues and critically appraises the status of outcomes research for specific musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and nervous system conditions. Providing insightful recommendations for future research, this text serves medical rehabilitation researchers, service providers, health care administrators, and, ultimately, consumers.
