Musculoskeletal assessment : joint motion and muscle testing / Hazel M. Clarkson - 3rd ed - Philadelphia : Wolters Kluwer/Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Health, ©2013 - x, 532 pages : illustrations ; 29 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index
Principles and Methods. Joint range of motion -- Relating assessment to treatment. -- Regional Evaluation Techniques. Shoulder complex -- Elbow and forearm -- Wrist and hand -- Hip -- Knee -- Ankle and foot -- Head, neck, and trunk -- Sample numerical recording form: range of motion assessment and measurement -- Sample recording form: Manual muscle strength assessment -- Summary of patient positioning for the assessment and measurement of joint motion, muscle length, and muscle strength
Completely revised and updated, the third edition offers a student-friendly approach to muscle assessment, presenting the basic principles and methodology of assessing and how assessment methods are applied in clinical practice. It explains joint range of motion (ROM), muscle length, and manual muscle strength evaluation techniques for the head, neck, trunk, and extremities. Each chapter is devoted to a separate anatomical region and provides knowledge of pertinent surface anatomy and deep anatomy. Excellent photography and illustrations enhance comprehension of techniques and serve as a self-learning tool. This edition features in-depth reviews of articulations, arthrokinematics, and the SFTR method. It teaches new techniques to measure active ROM of teh temporomandibular joint and the spine, and also contains a patient position chart for performing assessments
