Editorial Reviews for Orthotics and Prosthetics in Rehabilitation
|
The most comprehensive physical therapy text available on this topic, Orthotics and Prosthetics in Rehabilitation, 2nd Edition provides clinically relevant information in a reader-friendly format. It provides essential information about orthotic/prosthetic prescription and fabrication to give readers a foundation for gait assessment, both pre- and post-intervention. Separate chapters cover each type of orthotic followed by clinical applications for typical and special populations, while the section on prosthetics provides an overview of the epidemiology of amputation and the criteria the physical therapist needs in order to determine the necessity for prosthetic limbs. Instructor resources available; contact your sales representative for details.

Customer Rating:  
Summary: Great structure and information
Comment: The text included in this manuscript is of prime and great relevance to the Orthotic and Prosthetic field. Even psychological and pharmacological aspects are included. Divided into three sections it clearly and simply illustrates practically all aspects of the Orthotic and Prosthetic field. Under the sections are a variety of chapters written by experts of that specific field. However there still remain a few open spaces where imporant information were not addressed and the pictures included can definitely be reviewed and colored in. Except for these minor issues, I love my book!
