Disability Evaluation by Stephen L. Demeter (Hardcover)

This complement to the new, 5th Edition of the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairments provides the step-by-step guidance needed to judge the degree to which impairments affect performance for specific jobs and whether disability is present. You'll also understand how to use tests such as functional capacity evaluations and work hardening to assess and manage disabilities. A standard format for each body region covers sources of disability (pathological conditions and common occupationally related injuries), history, methods of physical examination, radiographic testing and interpretation, disability ratings, and work rating information.
