Description

This practical handbook provides a comprehensive written and photographic collection of all physical examination tests including neurological screening tools and conventional tests for all body regions. Diagnostic values are reported for each of the tests, if they exist. The quality of research behind each test is evaluated using a quality tool (QUADAS) that provides an analysis of the extent to which bias has influenced the diagnostic values. Finally, a summary “Utility” score is provided for each test based on the authors’ interpretation of the research and their use of the tests in clinical practice. The reader is provided with a one-stop resource for determining the benefit of an orthopedic physical examination test.
