Description

Handbook of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is a concise but broad reference dedicated to the day-to-day needs of those in physiatric practice, including trainees and other clinicians faced with rehabilitation problems. Contributors from leading rehabilitation programs and centers come together in this unique handbook to provide expert guidance into management techniques for a variety of diagnoses and clinical problems. Structured in its approach and focused on clinical care delivery, this essential resource is designed to help practitioners navigate the PM&R landscape with insight into conditions and issues encountered in everyday practice regardless of setting.

Designed for on-the-go reference, chapters are organized within sections from A to Z, beginning with management by diagnosis to address topics spanning the spectrum of practice from amputations and prosthetics, cardiac rehabilitation, multiple sclerosis, and stroke to traumatic brain injury plus more. A dedicated section focusing on musculoskeletal management of common injuries throughout the body is followed by reviewing management for a range of problems, including but not limited to anxiety, bladder and bowel, fatigue, infections, pain management, and seizures. A final section evaluates diagnostics, modalities, equipment, and technology to explore topics of EEG, EMG, neuropsychological evaluation, tracheostomy, and more. Throughout, chapters feature core definitions for the disorder or problem, its etiology and pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches, treatment methods, functional prognosis and outcomes, and suggested order sets in a systematic manner for targeted access. Complete with flow charts, diagrams, and tables, Handbook of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is the essential manual to all topics PM&R.

Key Features:

  • Addresses management by diagnosis and problem for the full range of physiatric conditions and injuries
  • Portable size and format for quick point-of-care problem-solving
  • Provides inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient clinic order sets for the most common diagnoses
