Written by a leading expert in the field, this comprehensive reference text enables users to properly screen for medical disease to make an informed diagnosis. The goal of this proven text is to teach the Physical Therapist how to determine if the patient has a true neuromuscular or musculoskeletal problem and to determine the specific dysfunction or impairment. Now with a new title that reflects a better understanding of the screening process as the first step in making a diagnosis, this text provides students, physical therapy clinicians and physical therapist assistants with a step-by-step approach to client evaluation, which follows the standards of competency established by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) related to conducting a screening examination.
A systems-based approach to differential screening and diagnosis make it easy for Physical Therapists to find information and understand it in light of other systems issues.
CD-ROM with screening tools provides Physical Therapists with forms and checklists they can use in the clinical setting.
Case studies provide real-world examples.

Includes new information on musculoskeletal problems.
A separate chapter on pain introduces the concept of pain as a screening tool.
An entire section is devoted to systematic origins of pain to demonstrate how regional pain should be approached in screening for particular disorders.

I used it while working on my doctorate. There were books that I sold after I was done with them, but this is certainly one that I kept and use frequently. The format is easy to read and there are a variety of helpful case studies. I strongly recommend it.
Summary: Very good book!

I am currently using this book in my 3rd year of PT school. The book has very good information, and is easy to read, unlike many textbooks. The book can be utilized by reading the entire chapters, or by reviewing the many tables and figures which organize signs/symptoms and important information in list form on different systemic diseases. There are many case study examples, which are interesting and very useful. Summaries at the end of the chapters and the practice questions are all very helpful. I highly recommend this book!
