Sample text
To illustrate the complexity of clinical reasoning we use the term three-dimensional thinking (3D thinking; Fig. 2). 3D thinking is a very dynamic and rapidly occurring process. 3D thinking should permit a unique therapist response (output) in relation to each individual and unique patient scenario (input). 2 also shows how equal weight is placed on the patient (input) and the physiotherapist (output). This illustrates that for clinical reasoning to be successful the patient and therapist should form an active and balanced partnership in trying to come to an understanding of the patient’s condition.
TB infections of the spine are usually ‘seeded’ from the lungs (Khoo et al 2003). Interestingly, the most common spinal site of infection is the thoracolumbar junction (Wiesel et al 1996). Cyriax (1982) 38 RED FLAGS refers to this site as ‘no man’s land’ and CSAG (1994) lists this area as a Red Flag. In adults there are four primary patterns of spinal infection: • • • • paradiscal lesions anterior granuloma central lesions appendiceal type lesions. Of these, paradiscal lesions are most common, representing approximately 50% of all cases (Khoo et al 2003).
