Clinical Orthopaedic Diagnosis, 4th Edition (Original PDF From Publisher)

The aim of this book is to focus on the clinical orthopaedic diagnosis. Orthopedics is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, correction, prevention, and treatment of patients with skeletal deformities – disorders of the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves and skin. Orthopaedic practice demands repetitive and complex decision making. All decisions are necessarily influenced by non-scientific considerations, such as limited facilities, patients’ non-compliance, and financial constraints, as well as the current limitations of orthopaedic science. This book consists of 25 chapters, which include orthopaedic, examination of long bones, joints, shoulder joints, elbow joints, wrist joints, hand, spine, pelvis, low backache, examination of paralytic patients, hip, knee, ankle joints, foot, peripheral nerve injuries, bone tumours, mandible and temporomandibular joint, gross examination of head injury, gross assessment of chest injuries, advanced diagnostic imaging, and syndromes related to orthopaedics and traumatology. In addition to the clinical examination methodology, relevant clinical anatomy of the region being dealt with in a chapter has been described at the beginning of each chapter. The clinical pictures and X-rays collated over the life-time covers almost all orthopaedic diseases, deformities and traumatology. This book is recommended to be kept in all clinics taking care of orthopaedic diseases, disorders and trauma.
