Editorial Review:Mosby’s Guide to Physical Examination is a comprehensive textbook of physical examination, history-taking, and health assessment with a unique emphasis on differential diagnosis and variations across the lifespan. Written by a team of two physicians and two nurses with a special blend of expertise in adult health and pediatrics, the book conveys a uniquely compassionate, patient-centered approach to physical examination with a strong evidence-based foundation. A completely updated art and media program -- consisting of 260 new illustrations, with all new examination photos, full motion video exams on the companion CD-ROM, a completely new 15-part video series, and expanded Health Assessment Online asset library -- further solidify Seidel’s reputation as the best-illustrated, most media rich, physical examination textbook on the market. * Lifespan considerations are highlighted in clearly delineated subsections called Infants and Children, Adolescents, Pregnant Women, and Older Adults. * Highlights key points of abnormal findings and medical diagnosis in Differential Diagnosis boxes. * Risk Factors boxes equip examiners to focus on high-risk problems. * Functional Assessment boxes help practitioners focus on the impact of diseases and disorders on patient function. * Evidence-Based Practice in Physical Examination boxes support time-tested exam practices with current research * Documentation content is featured throughout the book in Sample Documentation: History and Physical Examination boxes, and includes both subjective and objective sections. * Summary of Examination boxes serve as a handy review, with page numbers, to help readers ensure that they have mastered the necessary examination steps.
