Book: Musculoskeletal Assessment
Completely revised and updated, Musculoskeletal Assessment, Third Edition offers a student-friendly approach to muscle assessment, presenting the principles and methodology of assessing both joint range of motion (ROM)/goniometry and manual muscle strength for the head, neck, trunk, and extremities.
Each chapter is devoted to a separate anatomical region and provides knowledge of pertinent surface anatomy and deep anatomy. Excellent photography and illustrations enhance comprehension of techniques and serve as a self-learning tool.
Third Edition features:
- Hands-on Assessment Forms serve as additional practice for students in class or at home. A special feature/icon in the text refers students to these forms online.
- Normal AROM values are shown in red font in the text for quick reference.
- Separation of the book into sections better organizes the material.
- Covers both muscle testing and goniometry, allowing instructors to cover both topics without requiring a second book.
- Clear step-by-step instructions for Muscle Testing making it easy for students to follow.
- Provides clinical tie-ins to the material where possible, allowing students to apply the material they are learning to clinical situations.
- More than 800 lavish photos clearly demonstrate patient and therapist positions and instrument placement.
- Surface anatomy and a detailed visual presentation of deep anatomical structures are provided.
- Functional applications of evaluation findings are related to self-care, work, and leisure activities.
- The specific function of the joint complex, ROM, and muscle work required for functional activities are documented to establish the patient’s present functional status and to set appropriate treatment goals.
- Includes chapter relating assessment methods to selected treatment techniques.
