Inhaltsangabe
The 155 outcomes instruments collected in this handbook are arranged by shoulder, elbow, wrist/hand, pelvis, hip, knee, ankle, and calcaneus. Each method for measuring treatment effectiveness is displayed on two side-by-side pages that list a summary of its content, the results of validation studies, the reliability and responsiveness of the instrument, a score for clinical utility, and an overall score on a ten-point scale. In addition to facilitating the selection of outcomes instruments in daily clinical practice, the book may assist in the critical assessment of academic journal articles and the development of new and improved outcomes instruments via standardized criteria.
