A Guide to Pediatric Cardiovascular Physical Examination: Or, How to Survive an Outreach Clinic

By Colin K. L. Phoon

This pocket-sized collection of advice addresses the common problems of the outpatient paediatric cardiac examination. It includes more than 100 cases and emphasizes physiology to demonstrate why certain lesions produce certain murmurs. Each case is presented primarily through physical findings, accompanied by history, chest radiographs, electrocardiograms and echocardiograms when available. Readers should learn to refine their clinical examination skills through this physiological approach.
