Description
This second edition of Primary Care continues to deliver succinct, current, and integrated information on the assessment, differential diagnosis, treatment, and management of individuals with commonly seen conditions in primary care settings. Written and edited by APNs in a wide range of specialties and other health professionals, it has been updated to place greater emphasis on guidance for differential diagnosis and on interprofessional primary care, lifestyle management, health promotion, risk reduction, and prevention. Also featured is extensive coverage of elderly/geriatric primary care, age, gender, and occupational considerations, palliative care, and evidence-based practice guidelines.
This comprehensive text distils and integrates required information from all arenas of primary care, so readers will find all the information they need in one easy-to-use resource. It presents current diagnostic criteria for each condition and includes relevant anatomy, pathology, and physiology. Epidemiology of the condition, including cultural and economic factors, is included as is prevention, risk identification, and screening. Also covered are related laboratory studies, the physical exam, wellness coaching, treatment options, potential pitfalls, and much more. Additionally, the book includes clinical ""pearls,"" references, and chapter review by experts in each field. It will be of value to all interprofessional primary care providers, with a special focus on the needs of advanced practice MSN and DNP students, and as a course textbook for teaching primary health care topics.
