Physical Rehabilitation, 7th Edition, is a comprehensive textbook that addresses the rehabilitation management of adult patients. It provides structured guidance on selecting appropriate evaluation procedures, formulating patient goals, and designing therapeutic intervention plans.
Broad thematic areas include patient examination methods, interventions to improve motor and locomotor function, and the management of complex neurological, cardiopulmonary, and musculoskeletal disorders. Coverage also explores environmental adaptations, orthotics, prosthetics, and wheeled mobility systems.
Intended to serve as a curriculum-spanning text during professional training and as an ongoing reference in clinical practice, the volume integrates examination procedures, goals, and interventions aligned with the APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice.
