Your one-stop-shop for final examination, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Examination and Practical Skills is the first truly comprehensive pocket guide to clinical examination and practical skills for medical students and junior doctors. Providing clear and user-friendly guidance on all aspects of history taking, physical examination, common practical procedures, data interpretation and communication skills, it gives realistic advice on coping with common situations.In line with current teaching methods, the book takes a systems-based approach to medicine. Each system chapter follows a structured format covering applied anatomy, history, examination, and the presentation of common and important disorders. The procedures section includes approximately forty practical procedures that the final year medical student and senior nurse are expected to perform, from hand-washing through cardiopulmonary resuscitation to inserting chest drains. The theory, practice and complications are outlined for each. The final section on data interpretation covers the basics of chest x-rays, abdominal x-rays, ECGs, lung function tests and several other areas that the junior doctor is expected to carry out in their early years of training. Aimed at medical students throughout their course and student nurses throughout their clinical years, its clear presentation and layout combined with comprehensive clinical detail make this book an ideal guide both for quick reference whilst on the wards, or for more detailed study at the desk. It will also prove useful to junior doctors and nurse practitioners as a primer before going out onto wards, or into a primary care setting.

Product description
Review
The simple organization of the organ systems, the pertinent historical cures a practitioner should be looking for, the completeness of the description of the physical findings, supported by the excellent graphics, makes this one of the best texts on physical examination available...there is much to be learned by those at all levels of training from this well-organized, well-written book. (Doody's Notes)
This new book, which is part of the popular Oxford Handbook Series, is a must-have for final year students and newly qualified foundation doctors. ... The use of colour illustrations showing the clinical signs strengthens the book as a core text for students. ... I have yet to read a book like this that encompasses clinical skills and practical skills. (British Journal of Hospital Medicine, Vol 68, No 10,)
The books is part of the Oxford Handbook series (like the chesse and onion) and will therefor be familiar to the majoraty of students. Being a handbook is particulary useful and means it'll fit in most pockets without trouble... To finish this excellent piece of work, Thomas and Monaghan have included a chapter on interpretation - going through most of radiology, clinical chemistry and not forgetting the dreaded ECGs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essenziale
Format: FlexiboundVerified Purchase - xtremeReviewed in the United States on 18 February 2014
5.0 out of 5 stars when in doubt consult this book
Format: FlexiboundVerified Purchasetook AMC and PESCI and referred on this book from time to time. the problem with youtube and net is there are several variations of a procedure. If you check it with your book (Murtaghs) you'll have to look for that page wasting your time. The topics here are clustered for ease. Other than using wikipedia, this can be a source of standard care of various tests and procedures with explanations. With that you can definitely say its from an authorative source. plus its cheaper to buy in amazon

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book. Fast shipping.
Format: FlexiboundVerified PurchaseI'm currently preparing for my PLAB Test and this book is highly recommended as a great tool to obtain or refresh the required knowledge for it. I was highly pleased that the seller was able to ship the book to USA where I currently live. Nice service, great seller. I will buy more book from him for sure.
- SuavisReviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 May 2013
5.0 out of 5 stars Good for Medical Students
Format: FlexiboundVerified PurchaseI'd recommend this for all UK medical students as soon as they need to take history / examination. Contains handy notes on the most common and correct notation seen in notes.
Again, as you'd expect from this series the book is concise, condensed and accurate.
Well worth it.
