Examination, clinical reasoning, therapeutic interventions, and the therapist-patient relationship all play an inseparable part in the physical therapy process. This book provides PT students with logical, step-by-step guidance on how to perform examinations, document findings, draw up individual treatment plans, and help gain a better understanding of this process. Includes specific guidance on: structures and functions of the musculoskeletal system; joint measurement based on the neutral zero method; testing intra-articular mobility; cardiopulmonary functions; cardiac stress; and exertion assessment, and a chapter devoted to pain assessment and management.
