Synopsis

Adult Physical Dysfunction and the Occupational Therapy Process was written to engage and educate entry-level therapists about common clinical conditions affecting people. The text includes clinical indications, interventions, and general practice guidelines for conditions like stroke, traumatic brain injury, visual perceptual disorders, and orthopedic conditions. It will assist in the development of clinical practice skills, evaluation skills, and identifying assessment criteria for new therapists.

This text explains and develops fundamental assessments techniques based on the occupational therapy process. The Occupational Therapy Practice Framework III (AOTA) and domains of practice from the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) is used as a basis for occupational therapy intervention. It will also cultivate the learner's clinical knowledge and performance skills for therapeutic intervention.

Learners will explore disease processes such as types of fractures, Huntington's disease, heart disease and a myriad of other common clinical disease processes. These conditions are discussed from a clinical evaluation perspective to further enhance performance of assessments including visual assessments, range of motion, cognition, and strength. 

This text is unique to occupational therapy education by providing a basic working knowledge of multiple clinical conditions and foundational treatment interventions for the entry-level clinician. It also includes practice activities designed to cultivate critical thinking skills and develop the use of professional terminology. It is a great learning tool for any medically based conditions course.
