Diagnosis for Physical Therapists: A Symptom-Based Approach

The first diagnosis book written by PTs for PTs based on how patients present…by symptom, not by organ system!A pioneering team of practitioners and educators addresses the growing need for PTs…to identify the relevant underlying pathology; determine whether a patient’s condition is appropriate for physical therapy; ensure that a serious condition has not been overlooked; and decide the next step in managing a patient.You’ll learn how to organize the history and examination interview, and to interpret the findings using a ‘process’ that helps to determine what the most likely type and source of the pathology is. A consistent organization in each chapter makes reference easy. It’s a resource that you’ll consult every day when evaluating and formulating treatment plans for both adults and children.Additional ISBNs: 6613933821, 1283621371, 0803638027, 9786613933829, 9781283621373, 9780803638020, 9780803638020Diagnosis for Physical Therapists: A Symptom-Based Approach 1st Edition is written by Todd Davenport and published by F.A.
