Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and Upper Extremity: Splinting Principles and Process, 2nd Edition MaryLynn A. Jacobs and Noelle M. Austin

Clinical Pathways , an exciting first edition, helps students learn how to proficiently conduct range of motion (ROM) and manual muscle (MMT) assessment for the main joint structures of the body. Focusing heavily on clinical application, the text also provides a novel, OT-focused “Clinical Pathways of Assessment” model that connects physical assessment with a clinical decision-making process. This model helps students develop the skills to effectively evaluate a client through an occupational profile and performance.

Providing orthosis patterns for most upper extremity diagnoses, this Second Edition of Orthotic Intervention for the Hand and Upper Extremity: Splinting Principles and Proces s provides a practical framework to help students, as well as new and experienced occupational therapists, make an informed decisions about the best solutions for their patients. This detailed and easy-to-use reference demonstrates splint fabrication techniques and related interventions for the upper extremity, highlights anatomical and biomechanical principles, discusses associated indications and precautions, details common orthotic interventions, and provides an overview of popular taping methods.

NEW Frames of Reference for Pediatric OT, 4th Edition Paula Kramer

Updated throughout with new research, this 5th Edition of Kielhofner’s Model of Human Occupation (MOHO) offers a complete presentation of the most widely used model in occupational therapy today. In the new edition, author Renée Taylor preserves Dr. Kielhofner’s original voice and contributions while updating MOHO concepts and their uses in today’s practice environment.

Frames of Reference for Pediatric Occupational Therapy , Fourth Edition , uses frames of reference for diagnostic categories (neuro-development, social participation, etc.) as effective blueprints for applying theory to pediatric OT practice. Updated with new chapters, case examples, and a new focus on evidence-based practice. This proven approach helps students understand the “why” of each frame of reference before moving on to the “how” of creating effective treatment programs to help pediatric clients lead richer, fuller lives. The book first covers the foundations of frames reference for pediatric OT (Section I), and then covers commonly used frames of reference such as motor skill acquisition, biomechanical, and sensory integration (Section II). A final section discusses newer focused/specific frames of reference like handwriting skills and social participation. A standardized format within each frame of reference chapter covers the same elements (Theoretical Base, Supporting Evidence, the Function/Dysfunction Continuum, Guide to Evaluation, and Application to Practice) to help students build the knowledge and skills needed for effective practice.
