Synopsis

Devoted to the fundamental techniques of history taking and examination, restricting itself to common conditions likely to be seen in everyday practice, An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs in Clinical Medicine, addresses the need to go back to the basics of clinical examination. This companion to the very popular book by Peter Toghill comes in response to the feedback from student groups and lecturers that expressed the desire for a book that isn't a 'mini textbook'. The first book written with a systems based and problem oriented emphasis, it focuses on core topics and common conditions, and will have a wide general interest. Written in a reader friendly, concise style, with extensive use of bulleted lists, revision boxes, clinical cases, data interpretation, and four color throughout with numerous line illustrations and clinical photographs.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' has been conceived as the medical companion to Browse's hugely successful 'Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Surgical Disease'. Like Browse, it concentrates on the fundamental techniques of history taking and examination, restricting itself to common conditions likely to be seen in everyday practice.

The changes in undergraduate curricula in the UK and overseas medical schools have opened up a niche for a 'hands-on' clinical skills book which takes a symptom-oriented approach. This book, with its emphasis on core topics and common conditions will be an invaluable resource for all medical students.

Written in an accessible and concise style, 'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' includes practical 'stop and think' boxes for the reader. These include revision panels, practical points and symptom checklists. Red 'warning flags' are used to indicate critical situations.
