Ortopedteknik  

Bokens syfte är att ge en uppdaterad och lättillgänglig vägledning i den kliniska vardagen. I praktikans format ges konkreta förslag på utredning och behandling av de vanligast förekommande sjukdomarna i rörelseorganen.

Rörelseorganens sjukdomar och skador spänner över ett brett fält och för att vården ska fungera behövs hela teamet runt patienten: läkare, sjuksköterska, undersköterska, sjukgymnast, arbetsterapeut och ortopedingenjör. Detta är den första boken som beskriver samtliga professioners perspektiv och kompetens i den ortopediska vården.

Physical rehabilitation for walking recovery after spinal cord injury is undergoing a paradigm shift. Therapy historically has focused on compensation for sensorimotor deficits after SCI using wheelchairs and bracing to achieve mobility.
