This new edition guides students and practising athletic trainers and rehabilitation professionals through the examination and evaluation of musculoskeletal injuries both on and off the field.
The text presents injury examination strategies in on-site, acute and clinical settings.
You will learn to obtain an accurate injury history from the patient, inspect the injury and related areas, test motion control, palpate both bone and soft tissues, and examine function in order to gauge the player’s readiness to return to play.
