Every medical student must be able to take an accurate history and
perform a physical examination. This third edition of History
and Clinical Examination at a Glance provides a concise, highly
illustrated companion to help you develop these vital skills as you
practice on the wards. Building on an overview of the
patient/doctor relationship and basic enquiry, the text supports
learning either by system or presentation of common conditions,
with step-by-step and evidence-based information to support
clinical examination and help you formulate a sound differential
diagnosis.
History and Clinical Examination at a Glance
features:
* Succinct text and full colour illustrations, including many
brand new clinical photographs
* A new section on the development of communication skills, which
explains how to communicate in different circumstances, and with
different groups of people
* A self-assessment framework which can be used individually, by
tutors, or in group practice to prepare for OSCEs
History and Clinical Examination at a Glance is the
perfect guide for medical, health science students, and junior
doctors, as an ideal resource for clinical attachments, last-minute
revision, or whenever you need a refresher.
