Treatment and Rehabilitation of Fractures : Treatment and Rehabilitation of Fractures Pub Date: October 1999 Product Type: Print Author/s: Stanley Hoppenfeld MD; Vasantha L Murthy MD; Mark A Thomas MD; Babak Sheikh MD; Kenneth W Taylor MD; Anne P McCormack MD; Derek A Kram MD; Samuel A Hosington MD; Ashvin I Patel MD; Baron S Lonner MD; Robert Taffet MD; Lane D Spero MD; Jonathan Lewin MD; Ricardo F Gaudinez MD; Bradley M Thomas MD Written by leading orthopaedists and rehabilitation specialists, this volume presents sequential treatment and rehabilitation plans for fractures of the upper extremity, lower extremity, and spine. The book shows how to treat each fracture--from both an orthopaedic and a rehabilitation standpoint--at each stage of healing. Introductory chapters review the fundamentals of fracture management--bone healing, treatment modalities, biomechanics, assistive devices and adaptive equipment, gait, splints and braces, therapeutic exercise and range of motion, and determining when a fracture is healed. Subsequent chapters focus on management of individual fractures.Each chapter on an individual fracture is organized by weekly postfracture time zones, from the day of injury through twelve weeks. For each time zone, the text discusses bone healing, physical examination, dangers, x-rays, weight bearing, range of motion, strength, functional activities, and gait/ambulation. Specific treatment strategies and rehabilitation protocols are then presented. More than 500 illustrations complement the text.

Pollocks Textbook of Cardiovascular Disease and Rehabilitation honors the legacy of the late Michael L. Pollock, PhD (1936-1998). Pollock, an innovative and influential cardiac researcher and clinician, was highly regarded for his substantial educational and scientific contributions to the field of exercise science and sports medicine. This text presents an approach to cardiovascular disease rehabilitation as comprehensive as the vision that Dr. Pollock so passionately pursued during his 35-year career. Pollock's Textbook of Cardiovascular Disease and Rehabilitation addresses developing topics encompassing all aspects of the cardiovascular system. This text breaks away from Medicare-driven reimbursement paradigms for cardiac rehabilitation to discuss the entire cardiovascular system, not only coronary heart disease. In doing so, it provides a much-needed perspective for health professionals and their patients, especially those patients who need help but do not fit traditional entry criteria for cardiac rehabilitation. The texts editors, each a premier cardiovascular science expert, have selected an internationally recognized list of contributors to provide the deliberate and systematic coverage of cardiovascular topics in five comprehensive parts. They begin by laying a foundation that covers the historical and epidemiologic overview of the evolution and current state of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This consists of a discussion of the use of exercise as medicine as well as a description of interventions, clinical guidelines, and outcomes.

Only recently has scientific evidence emerged that relates to its benefits in the prevention and rehabilitation of chronic diseases and medical conditions such as arthritis, pulmonary disorders, and heart disease. Resistance Training for Health and Rehabilitation is the first text to address the expanding role of resistance training for health, disease prevention, and rehabilitation. It was originally developed by the late Michael Pollock, PhDone of the nations most respected experts on the prescription of physical activityand then was taken over by the two editors after Dr. Pollock passed away.The book is a collection of the most current thinking of leading researchers and preeminent scientists who break through the myths surrounding resistance exercises in patients with disease and low fitness levels. Resistance Training for Health and Rehabilitation presents a clear and sound rationale for including resistance training as a health benefit. The evidence points to positive changes in cardiovascular function, metabolism, coronary risk factors, and psychosocial well-being for people with and without disease. This unique resource will help professionals quickly identify the pros and cons of resistance training as it relates to a wide range of medical conditions. Just as important, it provides guidelines that will ensure the development of safe resistance activities for patients with health impairments, including physical disabilities.

Life Cultivation and Rehabilitation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), a monograph systematically introducing the knowledge of TCM life cultivation and rehabilitation, is intended for the readers to learn the theories of life cultivation and rehabilitation and to grasp the various relevant techniques of health care and rehabilitation. Life cultivation and rehabilitation originally be- to the different categories of disciplines of the two major branches of traditional Chinese and Western medical systems. The gradual formation of the system of TCM life cultivation and rehabilitation is Wed on the theories and practice of life cultivation and rehabilitation during the thousands of years of the Chinese people in combination with certain theories and techniques of the modern science of rehabilitation during the second half of the twentieth century. This is just the reason why this book has combined the two disciplines into one science for exposition. This book is composed of nine chapters. The content includes the basic theories and concepts of life cultivation and rehabilitation of TCM, various effective methods and clinical techniques of life cultivation and rehabilitation, the measures of life cultivation and health care in the light of people groups, seasons, regions of the body as well as the rehabilitation methods of twenty-six commonly-seen diseases. The book does not offer the sources of the originals cited from the ancient books and expresses the originals in simple language -instead for the convenience of the readers though it originates from the treasure-house of TCM with a long history of thousands of years. All the names of drugs, acupoints, prescriptions and books in this book are the standard and current ones. As for the names of diseases, we mainly use the names of diseases of modem medicine. In view of the specific characteristics of the discipline of TCM life cultivation and rehabilitation, the first section of chapter nine discusses chiefly symptoms. All the names of diseases of TCM in this book are modem general names. The science of TCM Life Cultivation and Rehabilitation, a comprehensive practical discipline, is based on the basic theories of TCM, diagnostic techniques, drugs, prescriptions as well as internal medicine, surgery, gynecology and pediatrics. Therefore, the readers can achieve overall mastery through a comprehensive study of this book in combination with other books of the series of books by means of mutual connection and consultation. PrefaceThe Publishing House of Shanghai University of TCM published A Practical English-Chinese Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1990. The Library has been well-known in the world ever since and has made great contributions to the dissemination of traditional Chinese medicine in the world. In view of the fact that 10 years has passed since its publication and that there are certain errors in the explanation of traditional Chinese medicine in the Library, the Publishing House has invited Nanjing University of TCM and Shanghai University of TCM to organize experts to recompile and translate the Library. Nanjing University of TCM and Shanghai University of TCM are well-known for their advantages in higher education of traditional Chinese medicine and compilation of traditional Chinese medical textbooks. The compilation of A Newly Compiled Practical English-Chinese Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine has absorbed the rich experience accumulated by Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in training international students of traditional Chinese medicine. Compared with the previous Library, the Newly Compiled Library has made great improvements in many aspects, fully demonstrating the academic system of traditional Chinese medicine. The whole series of books has systematically introduced the basic theory and therapeutic methods based on syndrome differentiation, expounding traditional Chinese pharmacy and prescriptions; explaining 236 herb...
