The first chapters detail the anatomical knowledge and background information required before molding orthoses on clients. Each chapter then explores a specific part of the upper extremity, describing common clinical diagnoses before highlighting typical orthoses that might be utilized to immobilize and protect it. Detailing the application of biomechanical, anatomic and clinical constructs, this new edition has been updated with new chapters on pediatric orthotic fabrication and 3D printed orthoses and adaptive aids. Other chapters have also been updated, with additional information on prefabricated orthoses and information on where to purchase them.
Also featuring multiple choice and short review questions to help with exam preparation, this is the ideal entry-level resource offering both text and video in illustrating this important area. It will be key reading for both Occupational Therapy students and practitioners.
