Riassunto

Brings together theoretical concepts with orthotic fabrication procedures. Emphasis is on the hand, but coverage also includes splinting the elbow, shoulder, face, head, neck, back, and lower extremities. Theoretical concepts covered include joint mechanics, tissue biomechanics, rationale for orthotic intervention for various conditions, orthotic design principles, and ergonomic considerations. Illustrated fabrication procedures include patterns and step-by-step instructions for dozens of orthoses, written to be understood by beginning and experienced therapists. Designs emphasize client comfort and compliance. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
