Book Description:
The first
consolidated textbook explaining the mechanism of clinical signs commonly seen
in medicine. "Mechanisms of Clinical Signs" is the first consolidated
text of its kind; designed to help medical students and junior doctors
understand the pathophysiological mechanisms behind clinical signs. Unlike
existing clinical examination textbooks which are predominantly organised by
disease systems and states, "Mechanisms of Clinical Signs" is
arranged by body system; bridging the gap between identifying clinical signs
and understanding the causes behind them. Presented in a useful handbook style,
"Mechanisms of Clinical Signs "discusses the evidence base and
clinical value of each clinical sign to assist with interpretation. Examples
are plentiful and include such signs as distinctive tremors in a Parkinson's
disease patient and red hands on a patient with liver disease. As well as being
an easy-to-follow reference for clinical signs seen on the ward,
"Mechanisms of Clinical Signs" is an excellent study aid - particularly
useful for those preparing for 'Viva' or 'OSCE' practical stations. The ability
to accurately identify and interpret clinical signs of disease upon examination
is a vital first step in correct diagnosis and treatment. "Mechanisms of
Clinical Signs" is therefore an essential textbook for medical students
and new practitioners. Online StudentConsult resources accompany
"Mechanisms of Clinical Signs" upon purchase.
