dc.description.abstract Fifty years after its initial publication, Macleod’s Clinical Examination remains the go-to textbook for medical students, junior doctors, nurses, and allied health practitioners. The fully revised fifteenth edition focuses on teaching how to take a history and perform clinical examinations to identify key clinical symptoms and signs of disease. It covers general principles, history taking, examination, and investigations for major body systems, along with applying these skills to specific clinical situations and preparing for assessments. Enhanced with 32 supplementary videos, the edition demonstrates key examination routines, many of which are newly updated to align with the latest guidelines and best practices. en_US
