Purchase options and add-ons

The second edition of the Pocket Guide is designed to work as a clinical handbook and up-to-date reference for nurses when interviewing patients of all age groups and cultural backgrounds, taking health histories, promoting health, and performing physical assessments. The content derives from and has been developed in conjunction with Jensen's Nursing Health Assessment: A Best Practice Approach and serves to both review the core content provided in the textbook as well as help students apply their foundational learning through reinforcement and streamlined presentation.
The content focuses on key questions in the area of health promotion, reviewing important risk factors and outlining essential teaching points for risk assessment and intervention. It includes essential questions to review common and concerning signs and symptoms for each health assessment topic. The chapters review the key techniques of examination, outlining normal and unexpected findings. Finally, tables of findings provide a quick reference by which students can compare and contrast results to assist with eventual nursing and medical diagnoses.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2013

I was looking for a quick reference guide and refresher on assessments. I stumbled upon this book and I love it. The illustrations are great. The book is easy to follow. It gives you objective and subjective assessments which is very nice. I recommend this as something a nurse would keep on the shelf in her office or in her nursing bag to refer to at any time. This is not the most thorough book you can find yet it definitely serves it's purpose for the money.

This is the Ebook my school provides but oddly enough, we are not permitted to take our Ipad minis to clinicals with us, so this handy little pocket guide works our perfectly. The layout is systematic and in easy to understand format. I recommend it to any nursing student as a valuable reference.

This book is really handy when on the go because it's the important parts of the normal sized textbook in a smaller pocket sized format. Made reading on the go much easier.
