Abstract

In the first book of its kind, noted biomechanists William Whiting and Ronald Zernicke explore the mechanical bases of musculoskeletal injury to better understand causal mechanisms, the effect of injury on musculoskeletal tissues, and how our current knowledge of biomechanics can contribute to injury prevention. Never before has the broad spectrum of injury mechanics been covered so completely in a single book. From introductory biomechanics to detailed examinations of the mechanical aspects of common injuries, Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal Injury provides a solid foundation for in-depth study. The book includes comprehensive information on -the basic biomechanical concepts of force, stress and strain, stiffness, and elasticity; -the mechanics of joints that are subject to disabling injury; -the structure of connective tissues (bone, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments), which are most often involved in musculoskeletal injuries; and -factors such as age, gender, nutrition, and exercise, which affect the musculoskeletal system's response to force. After providing the reader with a fundamental understanding of tissue structure and function, the authors then proceed with detailed explorations of the mechanisms of common injuries, including -inversion ankle sprains, stress fractures, and other lower-extremity injuries; -rotator cuff tears, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other injuries to the upper extremities; and -concussions, intervertebral disc injuries, and other injuries that afflict the head, neck, and trunk. Packed with more than 300 drawings, photos, and tables, Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal Injury is both visually compelling and indispensable as a reference on injury mechanisms.

Abstract

De belangstelling voor de posttraumatische stress-stoorniss (PTSS) is overweldigend groot en de hoeveelheid literatuur erover is inmiddels nauwelijks meer te overzien. Recente studies tonen aan dat circa 7 % van de bevolking boven 18 jaar kampt met PTSS. De kans op PTSS is ook aanzienlijk als gevolg van de toename van geweld, verkrachting, incest, oorlogs-ervaringen, martelingen, verkeersongelukken, branden en rampen. PTSS komt geregeld voor in combinatie met depressie, verslaving of andere angst- en dissociatieve stoornissen. De stoornis leidt tot een aanzienlijk functieverlies in werk, maar ook in relaties, en blijkt zeer hardnekkig te zijn. Veel behandelaars zijn nog onvoldoende vertrouwd met de verschillende behandelingsstrategieën die voor PTSS zijn ontwikkeld. Ook cliënten zelf denken vaak dat onderlinge steun of verwerking met behulp van gesprekken met een psychotherapeut voldoende is. Dit leidt ertoe dat velen niet of onder-behandeld worden.
