by Rodney Hicks (Author), Diane Seibert (Author)
Designed to fit in a lab coat pocket, The Comprehensive Health History and Physical Examination: A Lifespan Approach equips nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and medical students with a concise and practical tool for conducting thorough medical histories and physical examinations.
The pocketbook provides a step-by-step approach for collecting a patient's medical history and performing a physical evaluation, guiding users through the process with specific questions and a dedicated sequence. It encompasses a variety of assessments, featuring a unique chapter on obstetric assessment and a newly added chapter on mental health and substance use. The guide does not intend to elaborate on the significance of findings or definitions but rather focuses on the process of gathering medical information.
Targeting the educational needs of early healthcare trainees, this guide includes with chapters dedicated to adult and pediatric medical histories-both subjective and objective-preconception visits, new obstetric assessments, sample notes, and an overview of evaluation and management (E&M) codes for both new and established patients.
The Comprehensive Health History and Physical Examination is suitable for a broad range of health profession educational settings and courses, especially as a reliable companion in the clinic.
