      Motor Assessment of the Developing Infant, 2nd Edition presents theories of infant motor development and discusses the unique challenges involved in assessing the motor skills of developing infants as compared to that of adults. It provides step-by-step instructions for using the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) — a scale that measures infant gross motor skills. It also features a review of two current theories of motor development, line drawings and photographs of 58 gross motor skills, and a percentile graph to plot an infant’s score and derive an estimate of his or her percentile ranking. Clinicians, researchers, and parents/caregivers have all reported satisfaction with both the ease of an AIMS assessment and the strong psychometric properties of the scale. Thus, the descriptors of the 58 motor items and the administration and scoring guidelines have stood the test of time and remain unchanged in this second edition.

      LA COLLECTIONLes ouvrages de la collection Les indispensables en kinésithérapie et physiothérapie, sous la direction d’Adrien Pallot, font écho à la réforme de 2015 des études de kinésithérapie en France, leur contenu étant réparti par rapport aux Unités d’Enseignement (UE) et Unités d’Intégration (UI) définies dans le nouveau programme. Répondant ainsi aux besoins des étudiants, ils seront également un outil utile à tout professionnel désireux de rester à jour.Chaque ouvrage propose, pour chaque champ de compétences professionnelles du kinésithérapeute, une démarche raisonnée basée sur l’identification des signes et symptômes du patient, puis sur leur intégration réflexive d’après le modèle bio-psycho-social. Cette démarche, largement inspirée de la Classification Internationale du Fonctionnement et du Handicap, répond à l’approche par compétences instaurée par la réforme, et permet au (futur) professionnel d’apporter les meilleures réponses et soins possibles au patient.Les ouvrages de cette collection proposent, dans une maquette en couleur, des contenus solides, de haut niveau reposant sur la démarche évidence based practice, étayés de nombreux encadrés, illustrations et focus sur les notions essentielles / importantes.L’OUVRAG... Adoptant une approche centrée sur le patient, par syndrome et non par pathologie, ce volume aborde à travers 7 grandes parties et 46 chapitres, plusieurs thèmes importants de la formation en kinésithérapie : d’une part la sémiologie, la physiopathologie et la pathologie dans le champ neuromusculaire (UE16) et d’autre part l’évaluation, les techniques et outils d’Intervention dans ce même champ (UE 20). Une dernière partie consultable en ligne propose de très nombreuses échelles d’évaluation. Les contenus suivent la Classification Internationale du Fonctionnement.

      Monografía perteneciente a la colección Cuidados de Salud Avanzados, dirigida a profesionales y a estudiantes de posgrado y doctorado dentro de las ciencias de la salud, cuyo objetivo es ampliar los conocimientos básicos adquiridos en el grado con contenidos avanzados en cada materia. En esta segunda edición, revisada y ampliada, se dedica un capítulo al análisis de regresión lineal simple, realizando un abordaje completo, y de forma que el modelo de regresión lineal múltiple se perciba como una extensión natural. Por su parte, la regresión lineal múltiple se recoge ahora en otro capítulo que se ha ampliado con nuevos contenidos. Asimismo, se incluye una introducción al modelo de regresión logística binaria en el contexto de la generalización de los modelos de regresión lineal. Se introducen los conceptos progresivamente, comenzando por los más básicos e intentando generar una forma de entender y abordar los problemas que permita la comprensión y la utilización de técnicas más complejas. Se persigue no abusar del lenguaje matemático, resaltando las ideas intuitivas sobre los procedimientos y la interpretación de los resultados. Al finalizar el estudio de esta monografía, los lectores serán capaces de aplicar los métodos estadísticos como herramienta fundamental en investigación en ciencias de la salud, analizar e interpretar los datos estadísticos referidos a estudios poblacionales, redactar trabajos científicos y desarrollar razonamientos críticos, y la capacidad para definir y dar respuesta a problemas utilizando la evidencia científica.
