<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"We begin this preface by emphasizing that the only way to ensure an accurate diagnosis for an individual's health and well-being is through a thorough history and evidence-based health and well-being assessment. Learning to effectively assess the health and well-being of an individual involves integrating skills of history taking, physical exam, and diagnostic decision-making within the context of patient-centered, culturally-sensitive, evidence-based clinical practice. The process of teaching and learning assessment is complex"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>The first book to teach physical assessment techniques based on evidence and clinical relevance.</em></strong></p><p>Grounded in an empirical approach to history-taking and physical assessment techniques, this text for healthcare clinicians and students focuses on patient well-being and health promotion. It is based on an analysis of current evidence, up-to-date guidelines, and best-practice recommendations. It underscores the evidence, acceptability, and clinical relevance behind physical assessment techniques.</p><p><em>Evidence-Based Physical Examination</em> offers the unique perspective of teaching both a holistic and a scientific approach to assessment. Chapters are consistently structured for ease of use and include anatomy and physiology, key history questions and considerations, physical examination, laboratory considerations, imaging considerations, evidence-based practice recommendations, and differential diagnoses related to normal and abnormal findings. Case studies, clinical pearls, and key takeaways aid retention, while abundant illustrations, photographic images, and videos demonstrate history-taking and assessment techniques. Instructor resources include PowerPoint slides, a test bank with multiple-choice questions and essay questions, and an image bank. This is the physical assessment text of the future.</p><ul><strong>Key Features: </strong><li>Delivers the evidence, acceptability, and clinical relevance behind history-taking and assessment techniques</li><li>Eschews "traditional" techniques that do not demonstrate evidence-based reliability</li><li>Focuses on the most current clinical guidelines and recommendations from resources such as the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force</li><li>Focuses on the use of modern technology for assessment</li><li>Aids retention through case studies, clinical pearls, and key takeaways</li><li>Demonstrates techniques with abundant illustrations, photographic images, and videos</li><li>Includes robust instructor resources: PowerPoint slides, a test bank with multiple-choice questions and essay questions, and an image bank</li><li>Purchase includes digital access for use on most mobile devices or computers</li></ul>
