Evidence suggests a direct correlation between the quality of postoperative orthopaedic rehabilitation and the effectiveness of the surgery. Clinical Orthopaedic Rehabilitation, 4th Edition, helps today’s orthopaedic teams apply the most effective, evidence-based protocols for maximizing return to function following common sports injuries and post-surgical conditions. Charles Giangarra, MD and Robert Manske, PT continue the commitment to excellence established by Dr. S. Brent Brotzman in previous editions, bringing a fresh perspective to the team approach to rehabilitation.

Title Reviews

"This is an invaluable resource for all clinicians working with an orthopedic population. It covers surgical procedures, the evaluation process, treatment ideas/protocols, and current resources for further inquiry. The authors cite new and updated evidence-based treatment ideas and rehabilitation protocols as the rationale for this updated edition. The book is very much in step with these ongoing changes in orthopedic rehabilitation." - Christopher Blessing, MS, MPT, OCS, CSCS (University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro) Doody’s Score: 90 – 4 Stars!
