Saunders Physical Examination and Health Assessment Video Series

Designed to complement PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AND HEALTH ASSESSMENT, by Carolyn Jarvis, RN, C, MSN, FNP, these videotapes demonstrate assessments specific to each body system, and detail full head-to-toe examinations across the lifespan. Transcultural and developmental considerations are highlighted when appropriate. All videos are enhanced by introductory remarks, computer animation, and a focus on clear, sequential assessment techniques. Each body system is covered in a separate 15 to 25 minute video. Five 30 to 35 minute videos present full individual client head-to-toe examinations of a healthy adult, an older adult, a pregnant woman, a neonate, and a child. An instructors manual, included with every videotape, provides suggestions for class discussions and ways to encourage critical thinking. Tapes are available individually or as packaged sets.
