TextPublication details: Edinburgh ; New York : Churchill Livingstone, 2010. Edition: 6th edDescription: viii, 323 p. : ill. ; 25 cmISBN: 9780702033926 Subject(s): OrthopedicsDDC classification: LOC classification: NLM classification: WE 17 MC 2010Summary: "Clinical Orthopaedic Examination is firmly established as a standard guide to the subject. Although the basic techniques of a good clinical examination are best learned by performance under supervision, the lack of opportunities to experience an adequate range of suitable clinical cases makes this difficult to achieve in practice. As a result many students and trainees have only a sketchy knowledge of the techniques of examination which are fundamental to diagnosis and treatment. This book will be invaluable in helping fill some of these inevitable gaps until sound practice based on experience is achieved. The author's illustrations, arranged in a linear sequence, follow the traditional lines of inspection, palpation and the examination of movements and pertinent anatomical structures. The essential role of radiographic examination in the investigation of most orthopaedic cases is fully illutrated and integrated with the unique line drawings. For this Sixth Edition the text has been updated to include a number of new tests and methods of assessing overall limb function."--Publisher's description.
