Le premier contact avec le patient lors de l’examen clinique constitue le point de départ essentiel pour une prise en charge réussie et efficace. Ce guide pratique fournit aux internes et jeunes médecins la méthodologie, les connaissances, et les compétences à maîtriser pour pratiquer un bon examen clinique. Il s'agit à la fois de savoir recueillir l'anamnèse et de conduire un examen physique complet permettant de s'orienter vers un bon diagnostic. Les principales étapes - l’interrogatoire, l’examen clinique détaillé décrit selon chaque zone anatomique, ainsi que la rédaction du compte rendu médical - sont détaillées de façon claire et pédagogique. Les cas particuliers des personnes âgées et des situations d’urgences sont également étudiés. Cet ouvrage est conçu pour permettre un accès rapide à l'information : - contenu très découpé ; - nombreuses listes ; - encadrés de synthèse et sur les points critiques de l'examen ; - iconographie abondante (dessins de rappel anatomique, schémas et photographies pour illustrer l'examen en lui-même ou certains signes particuliers) ; - exemples concrets, trucs et astuces. La rigueur de la méthode alliée à un ton pédagogique facilitent l'acquisition et la maîtrise de la bonne posture et des bons gestes.
