Dispositionalism in Musculoskeletal Care: Understanding and Integrating Unique Characteristics of the Clinical Encounter to Optimize Patient Care (Paperback)

Reference:

Price: US$24.95

The aim of this book is to discuss contextual factors and the mechanisms at play during the management of musculoskeletal disorders. Knowledge and understanding of these factors can help clinicians to better understand their patients, themselves, and the interactions taking place during patient-clinician exchanges. The awareness of these dispositions can help physicians improve themselves and the care they deliver to patients, leading to a true patient-centered collaborative therapeutic alliance. Physician-patient collaboration is, in turn, associated with better patient adherence and outcomes, and care, delivered in a positive context, produces better outcomes.

This is a Comprehensive Guide to Dispositionalism in Musculoskeletal Care

This book is a practical and astute guide for physicians who are interested in developing care for their patients in need of musculoskeletal and pain management. The author is an experienced chiropractor and teacher, he demonstrates the dispositionalism model which is a patient-centered approach that emphasizes the need to understand the unique characteristics of each clinical encounter. Vianin argues that there are factors that affect the outcome of treatment that need attention, such as sleep quality, pain catastrophizing, and even the clinician's disposition.

In this book, the author offers practical resources to help clinicians incorporate the knowledge he presents into their daily practice. He also advocates the need for clinicians to address the emotional and psychological symptoms of pain in patients and not just focus on the physical symptoms.

A Practical Guide

A practical guide for improving how to treat pain. I like that it doesn't have hard terms that are hard to follow, and it is written in a very clear and approachable style. And the best part for me is the way the author talks about how to approach it; he says we must consider the emotional, the psychological and the physical aspect of pain as a whole, because that is the way our body, mind and soul connects with it as well.
The book talks about sleep quality as a thing to take in consideration and also attitudes. I think this book would help a lot of readers and their professionals in health care.
