About Prosthetics and Orthotics for Therapists

Prosthetics and Orthotics for Physical Therapists provides physical therapy students, physical therapists, and other allied health clinicians with foundational knowledge in prosthetic and orthotic (P and O) topics. The text and its resources are efficient, impactful, and affordable, including an overview of the history of amputation, and artificial limb, prosthetic, and orthotic concepts, followed by a review of professional and educational concepts related to P and O.Prosthetics and Orthotics for Physical Therapists is divided into two sections: first, Prosthetics and second, Orthotics. The Prosthetics section includes chapters on amputation epidemiology, related surgical concepts, componentry, gait, therapy, outcomes, and dermatologic considerations, as well as lower and upper extremity amputation principles and concepts. In the Orthotics section, there is an overview of pathology, and chapters on orthotic principles primarily by body region including below and above the knee, spinal and chest, and cranial and upper extremity.Key features and benefits of the book include the concise but clinically focused topics which are supported by evidence when available, and the covering of historic concepts through to the latest topics such as osseointegration and microprocessor-controlled devices. The organization by prosthetic and orthotic divisions, the anatomic and regional body section divisions, and the special topics (i.e., history, epidemiology, education, and others) allows discrete compartmentalization of vast content.This cutting-edge new textbook is ideal for entry level clinicians in training such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, physicians, prosthetists orthotists, or others in physical rehabilitative disciplines. Additionally, the book may serve well as a desk reference for clinicians who may not be specialized in P and O care but manage patients who utilize P and O devices.
