Synopsis:
The Tenth Edition of this classic text provides the best foundation for performing physical examination and taking the patient history. The book features a beautiful full-color art program and a clear, simple two-column format, with highly visual step-by-step examination techniques on the left and abnormalities with differential diagnoses on the right. This updated edition has an increased evidence-based focus. New boxes at the end of each health history section model effective interviewing and communication techniques. The pediatrics chapter has been broken into several chapters based on developmental stages, a separate chapter on pain assessment has been added, and the mental status chapter has been revised to focus also on psychosocial assessment. This edition also features an upgraded art program and a new Head-to-Toe Examination visual appendix.
