Español
Fisioterapia en la rehabilitación neurológica aborda de manera integral los fundamentos de la neurorrehabilitación a partir de sus 13 principios rectores, e incluye un nuevo capítulo sobre razonamiento clínico y evaluación. Describe el tratamiento físico de trastornos neurológicos frecuentes, como el ictus, la lesión cerebral traumática, la lesión de médula espinal, la esclerosis múltiple y la enfermedad de Parkinson, así como el de otras afecciones menos habituales, como las enfermedades neurológicas hereditarias, la enfermedad de la motoneurona, las polineuropatías y los trastornos musculares. Elaborada por un equipo internacional de editores y expertos, esta quinta edición es el texto sobre fisioterapia más actualizado para estudiantes universitarios y profesionales de la salud, pues se centra en seleccionar los recursos y las herramientas basados en la evidencia más apropiados en lugar de en refrendar abordajes terapéuticos específicos.
