Pocket Companion for Physical Examination and Health Assessment (4th ed)

"Pocket Companion for Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 4th edition", is a convenient and portable clinical tool for carrying out a holistic, head-to-toe assessment.

This handbook is useful either as an adjunct to the "Jarvis" text, or as an independent primer of basic assessment skills.

The pocket companion features all the essentials: health history points, exam steps for each body system, normal versus abnormal findings; integrated life span and transcultural considerations; and over 100 meticulously prepared color illustrations.

All of this is presented in an attractive and user-friendly format that mirrors the core text.

Revised and updated to match the text, the pocket companion is cross-referenced to the text by page number for those times when the reader needs more detailed information.
