Common Foot Disorders by Donald Neale
In preparing this edition, the editors have maintained the original concept of this book as a clinically-orientated guide to the diagnosis and management of foot disorders. New features include details on the field of ambulatory foot surgery and its potential for ensuring permanent relief in a number of painful and disabling conditions. Chapters covering this practice include the principles of infection control and the general principles of surgical practice. The new chapter on digital surgery describes day-surgery procedures of proven worth and there are details on the improved techniques of administration of local analgesia. The chapter on physical therapy has been revised and has information on orthotic technology and the chapter on examination and assessment has been expanded. The section on the growing foot has been rewritten and the former appendix on genetic factors enlarged as a new chapter. The restructured text now groups together all chapters on clinical practice before those on significant medical conditions. It also includes contributions from specialists in orthopaedic surgery, rheumatology, dermatology, neurology, medicine, pathology, and physiotherapy as well as from a number of chiropodists. The work should provide background knowledge essential to all practitioners who accept the responsibilities of independent practice and recognize the importance of team work in the total cre of their patients.| SKU | Unavailable |
