This book, first published in 2002, covers clinical examination in orthopaedics at an advanced level, bringing together important techniques and concepts that can normally only be found in large, specialist surgical texts. It adopts a systemic approach, taking each region in turn, and uses bullet points, key information tables, algorithms, summary boxes and clear photographs or line drawings to present information in an easy-to-read way and to and highlight important hints and common pitfalls.
Examination Techniques in Orthopaedics comprehensively covers the basic examination skills and important special tests needed to evaluate the adult and paediatric musculoskeletal system. Chapters are presented in an easy-to-read, memorable format, helping readers develop their own detailed framework for patient examination as well as promoting exam success. For this new edition, all of the chapters have been rewritten in a uniform style and a chapter on general principles has been added. Each chapter is illustrated by clinical photographs and photographs demonstrating the techniques on models, and includes a summary of techniques, which readers will find useful in exam preparation. The contributing authors are experienced in teaching clinical examination both in the hospital setting and on national courses, and furthermore, many are examiners with firsthand awareness of what candidates need to know. Invaluable reading for those taking undergraduate and postgraduate examinations, practising orthopaedic surgeons, physiotherapists, general practitioners, medical students and rheumatologists.
A comprehensive and easy-to-read guide to clinically examining the musculoskeletal system for everyday practice and exam preparation.
Featuring 775 full-color illustrations, this atlas demonstrates the surgical approaches used in orthopaedics and provides a surgeon's-eye view of the relevant anatomy. Each chapter details the techniques and pitfalls of a surgical approach, gives a clear preview of anatomic landmarks and incisions, and highlights potential dangers of superficial and deep dissection. The Fourth Edition describes new minimally invasive approaches to the spine, proximal humerus, humeral shaft, distal femur, proximal tibia, and distal tibia. Other highlights include new external fixation approaches for many regions and surgical approaches to the os calcis. New illustrations of the appendicular skeleton are included. New drawings show the important neurovascular structures that need to be protected.
"Stands on its own as an easy-to-carry reference in the clinic. [Its] strengths… are its clear diagrams and the table format frequently used to present information. Athletic trainers and physical therapists will find this on-the-field or in-the-clinic handbook a useful reference with clear explanations and diagrams."—Advance for Physical Therapists and PT Assistants, review of a previous edition. Tap into easy-to-follow, step-by-step guidance on the evaluation and initial management of specific orthopedic and athletic injuries with the companion to Examination of Orthopedic and Athletic Injuries, 4th Edition. From evaluative procedures for palpation and range of motion through neurologic, ligamentous, and special tests, everything you need now in the lab, and later in the field or in the clinic, is here. It’s a terrific preparation tool for the BOC examination, too.
Physical Examination in Orthopaedics is a concise colour illustrated book structured around the three-stage system of examination - LOOK, FEEL and MOVE - advocated by the authors. In recognition of the importance of the positioning of both examiner and patient at every stage, the text is fully illustrated on a point-by-point basis with colour figures. These feature the authors as examiners, and each chapter contains both examination technique details and actual examples of abnormalities that may occur. The chapters are based on examination of specific parts of the body, taking a systematic approach. Extremely clear and easy to use, the text has been designed so that the reader can quickly refer to the specific area of interest.
