Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy - Elsevier eBook on VitalSource, 5th Edition

• NEW! Full-color photos and illustrations enhance student understanding of the book's concepts.
• Two NEW Mobilization and Exercise chapters cover physiologic principles along with application to practice.
  
• NEW! Information on airway clearance techniques is revised and condensed into one comprehensive chapter.
• NEW reference style makes it easier to find resources by replacing the old author-date references with numbered superscripts linked to MEDLINE abstracts.
• Evidence-based practice is demonstrated with case studies, and the latest research supports PT decision-making.
• Real-life clinical cases show the application of concepts to evidence-based practice.
• Emphasis on the terminology and guidelines of APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice keeps the book consistent with the standards for practice in physical therapy.
• Holistic approach supports treating the whole person rather than just the symptoms of a disease or disorder, covering medical, physiological, psychological, psychosocial, therapeutic, practical, and methodological aspects.
• Coverage includes both primary and secondary cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions.
• An integrated approach to oxygen transport demonstrates how the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems function together.
• Key terms and review questions in each chapter focus student learning on important concepts.
