Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
The first book published specifically about post-surgical rehabilitation. Unlike the more general and/or basic orthopedic books, this book provides specific clinical information about specific surgeries. The reader is not only given descriptions of each surgery, but also rehabilitation protocols for each surgery. Information provided in this unique text allows the reader to formulate specific rehabilitation outcomes for individual patients, including treatment protocols and troubleshooting with various patient populations.

2 out of 5 stars Good book for basic student knowledge   October 22, 2002

This is an excellent text for PT students or for the PT with no acute orthopedic experience. It provides basic and fundamental information. I do not recommend it for the therapist with experience; it is too elementary.


3 out of 5 stars Good for students, fair for clinicians   February 19, 2002
10 out of 10 found this review helpful

This text may be of benefit to the student physical therapist, when he/she is familiarizing himself with general ortho protocols. However, generally this information is clearly outlined by the referring orthopedic surgeon. I do not recommend this book to experienced clinicians, as the information is very remedial.
