Clinical Exercise Pathophysiology for Physical Therapy

Examination, Testing, and Exercise Prescription for Movement-Related Disorders

By: Debra Coglianese

In order to effectively examine, test, and treat patients with exercise, physical therapists need to understand how physiology from the cellular to the systems level provides the basis for normal responses to exercise. But that is not enough. Knowledge about pathophysiology, the changes that lead to abnormal responses to exercise in different patient populations, is also essential. Clinical Exercise Pathophysiology for Physical Therapy: Examination, Testing, and Exercise Prescription for Movement-Related Disorders is a comprehensive reference created to answer the “why” and the “how” to treat patients with exercise by offering both comprehensive information from the research literature, as well as original patient cases. Dr. Debra Coglianese, along with her contributors, have arranged Clinical Exercise Pathophysiology for Physical Therapy into three parts: foundations of physiological responses, pathophysiology of deconditioning and physiology of training, and pathophysiology considerations and clinical practice. The chapters present the physiology and pathophysiology for defined patient populations consistent with the American Physical Therapy Association’s Guide to Physical Therapy Practice. Patient cases also supplement each chapter to illustrate how understanding the content of the chapter informs physical therapy examination, testing, and treatment. The patient/client management model from the Guide to Physical Therapy Practice defines the structure of the patient cases, and the International Classification of Function, Disability, and Health (ICF) model of disablement has been inserted into each patient case. Highlighted “Clinician Comments” appear throughout each patient case to point out the critical thinking considerations. Included with the text are online supplemental materials for faculty use in the classroom. Clinical Exercise Pathophysiology for Physical Therapy: Examination, Testing, and Exercise Prescription for Movement-Related Disorders is a groundbreaking reference for the physical therapy student or clinician looking to understand how physiology and pathophysiology relate to responses to exercise in different patient populations.

The Politics of Regulatory Reform

By: Stuart Shapiro,Debra Borie-Holtz

Regulation has become a front-page topic recently, often referenced by politicians in conjunction with the current state of the U.S. economy. Yet despite regulation’s increased presence in current politics and media, The Politics of Regulatory Reform argues that the regulatory process and its influence on the economy is misunderstood by the general public as well as by many politicians. In this book, two experienced regulation scholars confront questions relevant to both academic scholars and those with a general interest in ascertaining the effects and importance of regulation. How does regulation impact the economy? What roles do politicians play in making regulatory decisions? Why do politicians enact laws that require regulations and then try to hamper agencies abilities to issue those same regulations? The authors answer these questions and untangle the misperceptions behind regulation by using an area of regulatory policy that has been underutilized until now. Rather than focusing on the federal government, Shapiro and Borie-Holtz have gathered a unique dataset on the regulatory process and output in the United States. They use state-specific data from twenty-eight states, as well as a series of case studies on regulatory reform, to question widespread impressions and ideas about the regulatory process. The result is an incisive and comprehensive study of the relationship between politics and regulation that also encompasses the effects of regulation and the reasons why regulatory reforms are enacted.

By: Debra Williamson

God-Sized Dreams: The Story Of A Little Black Girl From The South Side Of Chicago, tells the story of a highly sensitive little black girl who from a young age, felt insecure in her own skin and struggled with low self-esteem and low self-worth for most of her life. With a front row seat, she witnessed the crumbling and eventual demise of her parents' marriage and loss of their familial identity. During those years, she felt like an island and was plagued with a dark, mysterious unhappiness. In a desperate attempt to counter these negative feelings, the author charted a course to live her dreams, ' or so she thought. She sought the approval of men, and when it was not provided she felt like a failure. This book chronicles how the author navigated through the storms of her life. Believing she had it all worked out, operating in her own strength, she learned after many trials and setbacks that perhaps she was not actually living her dream.' When she accepted that God had a dream much bigger than she could ever imagine, miraculous things began to unfold in her life. God-Sized Dreams will encourage you if you see yourself as a failure in life or love. This book is for you if you feel that you are not worthy of the love of a godly man, not a good man, but a godly man. If you've ever struggled with your identity in Christ, God-Sized Dreams will show you that God is a dreamer! God sees your identity in Christ. God is bigger than your dreams! God wants you to believe for the IMPOSSIBLE! If you are living a life of pain and discouragement, let God shape your dreams!
