Description:
The fourth edition of Clinical Examination provides a clear, practical and above all, superbly illustrated guide to all aspects of history taking and patient examination. Designed to be accessible both to medical students just starting their clinical attachments and to more experienced readers, the clear writing style, the innovative use of clinical photographs and the explanatory illustrations combine to explain and clarify the concepts and skills necessary to take a history and perform an examination. The text is organised by body system, with each chapter structured the same way: firstly, underlying structure and function; secondly, signs, symptoms and abnormalities; thirdly, patient examination.
New to this edition:
An expanded author team includes representatives from primary care to reflect the changes in the teaching environment for clinical skills
A new first chapter focuses more strongly on communication skills and ethics
New ‘red flag’ highlight important symptoms and signs requiring urgent attention
Online access to the text and illustrations on Student Consult for the first time
