I am a PGY4 in Physiatry (university of toronto) and this is the best sports medicine book I have. A must buy for anyone in a related field.PROS: Well written, easy to ready, details physiology and explaniation with anatomy. Love the hard cover (makes it last).CONS: Big, would have liked more physical exam tests and their sensitivity/specificity.OVERALL: If you are thinking about this book, BUY IT. Everyone that I know that has this book has not regretted it.
This is great for helping with clinical reasoning when presented with a "problem area". Chapters are grouped into areas of the body, and sorted into common clinical conditions. Tests are nicely described.Some more anatomical pictures would be helpful, and I can't get the online component to work...
I'm a third year FM resident, who bought this book as a reference and also to accompany me on an ortho/sports med rotation. I'm nowhere near to covering all of the material, but I have read a few of the chapters that I feel are more "high yield" (knee pain, shoulder pain, hand pain). These are great, and fit hand in hand with what I'm learning from the ortho doc I'm working with (she's hardcore...treated many high level athletes and has been the team doc for a few olympic teams).Some of the chapters also offer photographs and descriptions of PT/strengthening exercises for certain conditions. I do wish they talked more about reading specific x-rays, and also about joint injections (maybe they do and I haven't gotten there yet??). The book comes with a subscription to their website, which is not yet up and running...the go live date keeps getting pushed back. The website it supposed to have videos of exams (there are also pictures with descriptions in the book), among other things).Overall, I am very happy with this purchase. I think it will make a great reference for questions that arrise around patient care of sports med/musculoskeletal issues. Part of the book is organized by "regional problems, " (ie. where is the pain) which make it quick to look things up based on a patient's complaint.
The bible of Sports Medicine just got bigger and better. I love the first 3 editions but this is an improvement. More content, more colour and interactive website to hone those skills. 10/10 from me
I was told (as a physiotherapy student) that this book would be the book that will stop you crying late at night. It lives up to that - very comprehensive.
The book is good for sports med docs, some uncommon diagnosis are not included so i have to go online to look for that. Otherwise its a good book.i won`t say its best the best book for sports med doc. Physical exam is very well explained but the anatomy portion is not explained well. I will always like if they mention the root level association too. I am buying another sports med book soon, will see if thats any better than this.
It is becoming a classic sports medicine book for the residents and the sports medicine fellows. Illustrations guidance for diagnosis and rehabilitation are great. Dr. Nicola
