内容説明

This 3rd edition updates the text in this book and should help students move from the classroom to the role of an empathetic physician skilled in listening and responding to patients. The text emphasizes the doctor-patient relationship. It continues the first edition's integration of all aspects of physical diagnosis: patient history taking, physical examination, signs and symptoms and their pathophysiology, and it retains its unique address of the physical examination's utility. Two new chapters address caring for patients in a culturally diverse society, and the acutely ill patient. The chapter on "Clinical Decision Making" has been completely rewritten and there is expanded coverage of post-traumatic stress disorder, abuse and its signs, and AIDS and HIV, as well as an increased number of photographs of the common oral, dermatologic, ophthalmologic, and paediatric manifestations of HIV infection. Each chapter begins with a review of the anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiologic states of the respective organ system. Then, the techniques of examination and the major symptoms of that organ system are presented. Students learn about the pathophysiologic causes of symptoms. The book discusses the impact of disease on a patient's life and heightens student empathy and understanding for the patient's condition. Covers medical terminology to promote word-building skills and interviewing skills so students may obtain accurate information from their patients.
