Pocket Companion for Physical Examination and Health Assessment - E-Book

Description

Developmental Considerations sections highlight content specific to infants, children, adolescents, pregnant individuals, and older adults. Cultural and Social Considerations sections reflect the cultural diversity of Canada's population. Two-column format for examination content makes it easier to access, learn, and understand key physical examination skills and findings. Content on the electronic health record, charting, and reporting provides examples of how to document assessment findings. More than 200 full-colour illustrations demonstrate examination skills, underlying anatomy and physiology, and normal and abnormal findings to provide a complete picture for physical examination. Normal and abnormal examination photos offer a fresh perspective on key system examinations, along with cultural diversity and developmental variations. Abnormal findings tables help students recognize, sort, and describe key abnormal findings. Colour-coded bars visually segment each body system chapter into major sections -- anatomy, subjective data, objective data, and abnormal findings -- to make content easier to find. Summary Checklists offer reviews of key examination steps. NEW! Updated content throughout corresponds to the 4th Canadian edition of the textbook and incorporates the latest research and evidence-informed practice.
