Learn how to screen for red flags and when to refer clients to a medical specialist! Differential Diagnosis for Physical Therapists:
Screening for Referral, 6th Edition provides a step-by-step approach to screening for systemic disease and medical conditions that can mimic neuromuscular and musculoskeletal problems. It describes both red flags and yellow flags, so you can recognize the signs and symptoms for conditions outside the scope of physical therapy practice. This edition includes new information on women’s health issues.
Written by experienced PT practitioner Catherine Cavallaro Goodman, this book helps you determine whether a client’s symptoms require physical therapy or physician referral!
Edited by John Heick and Rolando T. Lazaro.<\/p>\n
