Teach students how to conduct a patient-centered health history and physical examination! Seidel's Guide to Physical Examination: An Interprofessional Approach, 11th Edition, takes a uniquely interprofessional collaborative approach to health assessment, with a strong emphasis on lifespan considerations and differential diagnosis of unexpected findings. Each core chapter is organized into four sections ― Anatomy and Physiology, Review of Related History, Examination and Findings, and Abnormalities ― with lifespan content integrated into each area. Written by a team of nurse practitioners and physicians, this one-of-a-kind textbook uses evidence-based guidelines to help students master hands-on exam techniques, as well as communication skills that build rapport and trust with the patient.
    • UPDATED! Content reflects the latest standards and guidelines in health assessment

    • Interprofessional collaborative approach, written by two advanced practice nurses and three physicians, offers balanced expertise in both pediatric and adult-geriatric health
    • Integrated lifespan content includes separate sections in each chapter on infants and children, adolescents, pregnant patients, and older adults
    • Compassionate, patient-centered approach emphasizes developing good communication skills, use of effective hands-on examination techniques, and reliance on clinical reasoning and clinical decision-making skills
