Inhaltsangabe

In introducing two dozen chapters by primarily UK and US contributors, the Lamb (trauma and orthopedic surgery, U. of Leeds) and Hay (consultant orthopedic surgeon, UK hospitals) explain why the concept of evidence-based medicine (EBM) has particular relevance in the field of orthopedics. In addition to surgical management, specialists weigh the evidence for non-operative treatment options including exercise, physiotherapy, cortisone injections, acupuncture, and biofeedback. Chapters include data from controlled clinical trials and other research, case studies, imaging results, specific recommendations, and EMB-related Web resources. Lacks an index. U.S. distribution is by BookMasters. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
