Description: About the AuthorSuzann K. Campbell, PT, PhD, FAPTA, holds the BS in Physical Therapy and a PhD in Neurophysiology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is Professor Emerita and Director of Mentoring Programs in Clinical/Translational Science at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). She is senior editor of Physical Therapy for Children and has published more than 60 peer-reviewed articles. Dr. Campbell’s research with OT and PT colleagues on assessment of infants born at high risk for movement disorders resulted in publication of the Test of Infant Motor Performance (TIMP), a functional motor scale for newborns which was normed on 990 U.S. infants. Recent research has demonstrated the value of the TIMP for educating parents of premature babies about their infant’s motor development. Used as both a core textbook in PT programs and as a clinical reference, Physical Therapy for Children, 3rd Edition, provides the essential information needed by PTs, both student and professional, when working with children. Like the previous bestselling editions, the 3rd edition follows the practice pattern categories of the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice and presents evidence-based coverage of treatment in a convenient and concise format. Users will discover that the new edition features more case studies, revised chapters with additional information, a DVD-ROM with video clips, as well as a three-tiered website with resources for instructors, students, and clinicians.Presents broad coverage of all potential practice situations including information on unique practice settings and medicolegal informationEmphasizes an evidence-based approach that incorporates the latest researchFollows the practice pattern guidelines of the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice, 2 Edition which sets the standard for physical therapy practiceFeatures an entire section on the basics of pediatrics, which includes essential coverage of normal development, motor control, motor learning, and a framework for decision makingIncludes extensive information on clinical management featuring practical applications for cliniciansDVD-ROM featuring approximately 39 video clips that correspond to case studies and demonstrate conditions found in each chapterMore case studies providing real-world examples of the material covered in the textChapter on The Environment for Intervention demonstrating contextual factors that are important for children's everyday life functionsChapter on Genomics and Genetic Syndromes Affecting Movement that includes information on genetic resources, mutation, genetics and development, chromosomal disorders, gene disorders ― providing knowledge in a growing field that has revolutionized the diagnosis and categorization for genetic disordersSocial participation aspects of the World Health Organization's disability model explaining how rehabilitation can focus on the entire child rather than the disabilityTwo-color artwork highlighting important points and concepts
