Preferred Practice Patterns: APTA Guide To Physical Therapy Practice

The document outlines various physical therapy practice patterns for different body systems including musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiovascular/pulmonary, and integumentary. It lists 13 patterns for musculoskeletal issues, 9 patterns for neuromuscular issues, 9 patterns for cardiovascular/pulmonary issues, and 5 patterns for integumentary issues. The patterns describe different impairments physical therapists may address related to joint mobility, motor function, muscle performance, range of motion, and other issues.
