Pathology,Implications for the Physical Therapist Description
Understand how a patient’s conditions might affect physical therapy and outcomes so that you can design safe and effective interventions. The only pathology textbook written specifically for physical therapists, Pathology: Implications for the Physical Therapist, Third Edition, offers guidelines, precautions, and contraindications for interventions with patients who have musculoskeletal or neuromuscular problems as well as other conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or pancreatitis. Learn about the cause of these conditions, the pathogenesis, medical diagnosis and treatment, and most importantly, the special implications for the therapist. In addition to addressing specific diseases and conditions, this text emphasizes health promotion and disease prevention strategies and covers issues with implications for physical therapy management, such as injury, inflammation, and healing; the lymphatic system; and biopsychosocial–spiritual impacts on health care. With this practical and evidence-based text, now enhanced with full-color illustrations and the latest research, you’ll know what to factor into your clinical decisions to achieve the best outcomes for your patients.

I used this book during my clinical rotations and as preparation for both my exits and boards. Full of good information including implications for the rehab specialist, things that you definitely need to know because let's face it, you can't know everything when you graduate.
When I bought this book, it was $87.10 and now it is $100.00. What?!!? no.

Book is an excellent reference for those in school, or even in practice. I highly recommend it, it has been very useful in learning.
