Fallbuch Physiotherapie: Neurologie

For all those who find themselves asking "What now?" in their daily practice, this book presents a comprehensive and evidence-based spectrum of assessment and therapy in physiotherapy through relevant practical case studies from neurology and neuro-rehabilitation.

Over 20 cases of varying difficulty levels, such as ataxia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, brain tumors, Guillain-Barré syndrome, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and tetraplegia, are addressed.

Practice-oriented and scientifically grounded: Divided into cases of varying difficulty, experts "translate" current scientific literature into daily work with patients and provide practical tips.

Clinical Reasoning: The authors explain why they chose specific interventions. This helps to understand the thought processes and connections, allowing for the derivation of one's own measures.

Boxes labeled "Caution," "Practical Tip," or "What if..." highlight important information at a glance.

With varying levels of difficulty, everyone benefits—from beginners to experienced physiotherapists. Simpler cases ease the entry for physiotherapy students, trainees, and newcomers into the complex field of physiotherapy. Experienced therapists will find many interesting additional insights and suggestions for their work in more challenging cases. Instructors and internship supervisors will discover helpful visual materials for lesson preparation. The presentation of the case studies follows a uniform structure, including the introduction of patients and their issues, as well as the description and explanation of diagnostics and therapy according to the ICF framework.
