Evaluation and treatment guidelines are parameters for clinical practice. Therapists use guidelines to provide interventions that optimize patient outcomes. Developed by therapists at Therapeutic Associates, Inc. with clinical experience and an understanding of today's health care environment, this user-friendly manual provides a reference to all aspects of patient care, including initial evaluation, goal development, treatment, and discharge planning. Function and patient responsibility are emphasized. The guidelines are organized by orthopaedic and neurological diagnoses commonly encountered in rehabilitation practice. They can be used as a resource in the clinic or to validate treatment to a referral source or third-party payer. Each guideline concludes with an extensive, up-to-date bibliography, and each guideline is paired with a one-page quick reference tool that summarizes the guideline. The terminology in the guidelines is designed to coincide with APTA's Guide to Physical Therapist Practice.

People who suffer from chronic pain are typically found to be more anxious and fearful of pain than those who do not. Recent evidence has shown that the fear itself serves as a mechanism through which chronic pain is maintained over time. Even once the muscle or tissue damage is healed, a fearof further pain can lead to avoidance behaviour, which over time, leads to deconditioning (e.g. decreased mobility, weight gain). This in turn leads to further pain experiences, negative expectancies, and strengthened avoidance. It is the reciprocal relationship between fear and avoidance that isthought to be responsible for maintaining pain behaviour and disability. With fear of pain known to cause significant suffering and functional disability, there is a need for a greater understanding of this condition. This is the first book to explore this topic. It starts by introducing the current theoretical positions regarding pain-related fear and anxiety alongwith relevant empirical findings. It then provides comprehensive coverage of assessment issues and treatment strategies. Finally, the book suggests further areas for investigation. Pain-related fear and anxiety are now receiving considerable attention, and efficient and effective treatments are fast becoming available. This book will help guide and extend our understanding of a condition that has been shown to be associated with substantial suffering and disability.
