Excellent condition, came in way faster than I anticipated. Product is exactly as description tells. I am in a Physical Therapy Assistant program, and I got this textbook for my Orthopedic Management class. It gives detailed outlines of special tests for specific joints and pathologies.

Chapters cover: diagnostic accuracy, neurological testing & screening, medical screening, Physical exam tests for: cervical spine, temporomandibular joint, shoulder complex, elbow & forearm, wrist & hand, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, sacroiliac joint & pelvis, hip, knee, & lower leg, ankle, & foot 550 pages total Well written and super helpful. Review: Critical resource for the orthopedic physical therapy shelf. - This book is designed as a reference tool assimilating current research supporting or negating physical examination tests commonly used during the examination/evaluation process. This book not only lists the examination, but utilizes the QUADAS tool to assess the bias inherent within the research of these diagnostic tests. After using this book as a reference tool in my orthopedic residency, it became more clear to me why special tests have limited value in the diagnostic process without considering the whole person and the unique presentation of the individual. This is not a textbook for "evaluation" in the context of the whole person but serves it's role as a reference tool very well. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #392,784 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #17 in Orthopedics (Books) #103 in Orthopedic Surgery #203 in Physical Therapy (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (117) | | Dimensions | 8.4 x 0.9 x 10.8 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 0132544784 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0132544788 | | Item Weight | 2.3 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 560 pages | | Publication date | December 30, 2011 | | Publisher | Pearson | ## Images ![Orthopedic Physical Examination Tests: An Evidence-Based Approach - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812DqOWzGhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Helpful and Easy to Understand *by K***N on May 26, 2020* Ordered New-Paperback.

Many of the best evidence based examination tests shown in this book unfortunately are probably hardly ever used. I look forward to using this book from now on. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/3778404-orthopedic-physical-examination-tests-an-evidence-based-approach](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/3778404-orthopedic-physical-examination-tests-an-evidence-based-approach) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
