520 |a Orthopaedics for the Physical Therapist Assistant provides the physical therapist assistant (PTA) student with a broad overview of orthopaedics as it relates to physical therapy. This is the first book to combine kinesiology, orthopedic management, and therapeutic exercise; tying in the anatomy and kinesiology to the examination and pathology of each of the joints.

Working from this foundation, detailed explanations on the re-evaluation and treatment of each of the various areas are given with an emphasis on techniques that are evidence-based. This text also includes chapters on pediatrics, geriatrics, manual therapy, and women s health. Each chapter includes learning objectives, key terms, key point boxes, a summary, suggested readings, references, and end-of-chapter review questions to test the students understanding of the material.
