Description

Orthopaedic surgeons are increasingly involved in the planning of post-surgical rehabilitation of patients as evidence mounts that the quality of postoperative rehabilitation directly correlates to the effectiveness of that surgery.

What's more, the need for rehabilitation increases as an aging population participates in more activities and sustains more injuries. Differential diagnosis included at the beginning of each chapter for quick and accurate diagnosis of musculoskeletal conditions Assess a body joint's range quickly with the regional assessment boxes in every chapter Find information easily with new portrait oriented rehabilitation protocols
