• From the Publisher: "The latest version of this best-selling text includes updates and new information designed specifically for physical therapists to facilitate evidence-based practice in both the classroom and the clinical environment. Guide to Evidence-Based Physical Therapist Practice, Second Edition continues to provide students and professionals with comprehensive, accessible information to allow them to understand and critique studies as well as to apply evidence to actual patients in clinical settings." Guide to Evidence-Based Physical Therapist Practice, Second Edition includes user-friendly descriptions of research methods and statistical tests, clinically relevant examples specific to physical therapist practice, and worksheets for use during the evidence appraisal process. The Second Edition is formatted to be consistent with the American Physical Therapy Association's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice, Second Edition and includes terminology from the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. This is a comprehensive resource no physical therapist or student should be without.
