Fully updated and revised for its second edition, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Examination and Practical Skills is the only truly comprehensive pocket guide to all aspects of history taking, physical examination, practical procedures, data interpretation, and communication skills. Packed with expert knowledge and practical guidance it gives realistic advice on coping with common situations. The handbook is structured to allow rapid reference of key information, and to aid understanding with concise and practical clinical guidance. Full colour throughout, it includes over 140 detailed photographs and diagrams of all common examination skills to show you exactly what you need to do and the theory, practice and complications for each. More photos have been included, with over half completely new and specially produced for this edition. Each system chapter covers applied anatomy, history, examination, and the presentation of common and important disorders. Data interpretation covers the basics of x-rays, ECGs and other key areas. A new chapter on the eyes is included along with the sections on body language and non-verbal communication, and the section on practical procedures has been expanded. This handbook will help to ensure you have the confidence and skill to carry out an 'A' grade examination every time. Review: Must have for all clinical students and junior doctors. - Awesome book. All details needed and more! Wish the papers were glossy 😉 Review: Top Didaktik... - ... wie bei allen Oxford Handbooks! Einfach nicht zu vergleichen mit Lehrbüchern dieser Art aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum. Es wird viel deteillierter und trotzdem einfach verständlich auf wichtige klinische Aspekte eingegangen. Diese Bücher lesen sich fast wie Geschichten, weil sie nicht nur wichtige Dinge auflisten, wie so manches andere Lehrbuch. Geeignet sowohl als Kitteltaschenkompane, als auch als Gute-Nacht-Lektüre zum Schmökern zuhause. Ich bin begeistert!

Oxford Handbook of Clinical Examination and Practical Skills
Sono all'ultimo anno del corso di laurea in medicina e chirurgia e ho scelto di comprare questo manualetto della collana Oxford medical handbooks per avere a portata di mano un concentrato di semeiotica. L'approccio alla semeiotica del mondo anglosassone è , a parer mio, molto differente dal nostro: Molto più pragmatico, rapido e in un certo senso, anche superficiale. La semeiotica classica che viene spiegata sui testi tradizionali Italiani è molto bella, ricca e affascinante ma aihmè, spesso è difficile da applicare nella pratica di tutti i giorni. In questo volumetto ci sono le cose essenziali, utili come checklist nel primo approccio al paziente. Ci sono molte foto e immagini esplicative. Avevo sfogliato questo manuale in una libreria ma non l'avevo comprato per via del prezzo alto (circa 40€). Su amazon l'ho trovato a 25€ con spedizione inclusa (Prime) dal Regno Unito! L'ho preso al volo e ne sono contento. Non aspettatevi tutte le nozioni della semeiotica classica che si trovano nei voluminosi tomi italiani, ma un approccio un po' diverso, che comunque arricchisce.

Propedéutica en inglés.
Muy buen libro, ideal para sustituir los libros de propedéutica y semiología en español y aprender de la clínica británica.

Brilliant book
My friend paramedic recommended it, as he still uses it after multiple years in industry. It’s quite helpful and covers most important aspects. I bought it as a present for another friend, who’s studying at the moment, he is really happy with it! Book is really nice quality as well.
