This book is a resource for providers and students, integrating germane basic science information with clinical-medicine insights. The goal is to improve primary-care outpatient interactions for physicians, APRNs, and PAs. It is unique, integrating germane basic-science information with clinical-medicine. Unlike other resources that introduce these concepts more distinctly, this book bridges the gap and provides insights for providers and students. Also, there are succinct, yet comprehensive, presentations on managing the more common out-patient problems. The book is designed for primary care (...) providers and students, e.g., physicians, APRNs, and PAs, who desire to improve their patient-education, diagnostic, and treatment skills. The PEARLS are instruments to embellish and emphasize important concepts. The focus of the book is to improve outpatient medicine delivery, and better informed and confident providers are keys to the process. (shrink)
