Great find! October 27, 2008 One of my Advanced Practice Nurses (APN) asked me to try to find an older book another provider used for x-rays. Lo and behold there were 4 copies to pick from! It's really a great way to share books so they are used by people who need them.
Awesome for Ortho! September 10, 2008 This book is great for just about every other issue under the sun. Knees, shoulders, and backs...NO PROBLEM!
Best Price September 9, 2008 The best prices are on Amazon- and I always get what I'm expecting, usually the quailty of the books exceeds my expectations!
can do self diagnosis December 4, 2007 1 out of 2 found this comment useful.
If you are a medical layperson, you can use this book in a "self-diagnosis" mode, with very little risk. Several of the tests can be done by yourself. You have to understand enough of the medical jargon, which is mostly about anatomy. Straightforward. Keep in mind the title, "physical examination". The tests are all meant to be done by a doctor or nurse with mostly manual steps. No medical instruments.
Some tests really do involve 2 people. You and the examiner. In this case, you can recruit a non-medical friend.
By and large, all this should be safe. There's no surgery involved. Just remember that you should not perform some steps beyond or even close to a pain limit. If you are doing tests, it may be because you have some physical problem. Watch that pain threshold.
Amazing book! July 3, 2007 0 out of 2 found this comment useful.
This book is so helpful. It turned my practical test scores around 100%. It is great for the visual learner!
