Learn 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 you master hands-on exam techniques, as well as communication skills that build rapport and trust with the patient.

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
Strong focus on social inclusiveness and patient-centeredness incorporates LGBTQ+ patients and providers, with special emphasis on cultural competency, history-taking, and special considerations for examination of the breasts, female and male genitalia, reproductive health, thyroid, and anus/rectum/prostate
Cross-references to Dains’ Advanced Health Assessment & Clinical Diagnosis in Primary Care help you take "the next step" in clinical reasoning abilities and provides a more seamless user experience
