Tecklin's Pediatric Physical Therapy

Trusted for decades by Physical Therapy students as well as experienced therapists who want to improve their knowledge, Tecklin’s Pediatric Physical Therapy provides a comprehensive and logical overview of some of the most common pediatric physical therapy diagnoses.

This  straightforward approach presents basic medical information regarding  common clinical diagnostic categories followed by coverage of physical  therapy examination, intervention and special considerations within each  diagnostic group.

Content in this 6th Edition has been  thoroughly updated and reorganized to help prepare students for today’s  clinical challenges, accompanied by case studies and interactive  features that reinforce understanding and instill the clinical  decision-making skills essential to successful practice.

• Revised organization reflects the latest information consistent with The APTA Guide to Physical Therapist Practice.
• New chapters cover  regional pain disorders – written by experts working in the premier  pain management program in the US - and management of pediatric clients  through the transition to adulthood.
• Updated content presents  the most current pediatric PT management approaches to orthotics and  prosthetics, complex pain syndromes, autism spectrum disorder and  autoimmune disorders.
• Updated clinical case studies guide students through the patient examination and intervention process.
• Expanded coverage of Pediatric Practice Settings provides additional context on where pediatric clinicians practice by  adding acute care, rehabilitation, and outpatient settings to the  existing chapters on NICU and educational settings.
