Editorial Reviews for Hand and Upper Extremity Rehabilitation: A Practical Guide

This practical resource blends the technical and clinical skills and knowledge of hand surgery and hand therapy for the treatment of common medical conditions affecting the upper extremity. Written in an outline format, it covers non-surgical and surgical procedures for these conditions, along with their purpose and rationale. The new edition addresses not only the hand, but also features expanded coverage of the wrist, elbow, and shoulder. Both conservative and postoperative rehabilitation are reviewed, and potential postoperative complications are addressed. * Each chapter is written by a hand therapist, and the operative content within each chapter is contributed by a hand surgeon, reflecting the collaborative nature of current practice. * The editorial board consists of three hand therapists and two hand surgeons. * Chapters follow a templated, outline format that enables readers to quickly access information about therapeutic approaches for diagnoses in the clinical setting.

Summary: Great quick reference
Comment: A great quick review reference book, very helpful within a practice setting for easy-to-access information. Information is designed in a diagnosis-treatment summary style, good for therapists looking for a quick reference on common treatment diagnoses. For more detailed info (as one might need for initial instruction or for the CHT exam), one might be better served by the "Rehabilitation of the Hand" volumes. This book is very practical and helpful in day to day practice.
