PRIMARY CARE ACROSS THE LIFESPAN is a comprehensive text for students in Family Nurse Practitioner and Adult Nurse Practitioner programs. Part I covers more than 200 common complaints and conditions, organized alphabetically. Lifespan content on physical findings and appropriate treatments for children, elderly, and pregnant women is integrated within each chapter, and diagnostic tests, differential diagnoses, and pharmaceutical treatments are organized into tables and treatment plans. Part II covers client wellness across the lifespan and includes growth and development charts, physical examination forms, and health promotion recommendations. The extensive Appendices include quick reference data such as drug tables, immunization schedules, and laboratory values for clients in various age groups, making this book a valuable tool for students to use in the classroom and on into practice.* Presents each condition and complaint in the SOAPE format -- Subjective findings, Objective findings, Assessment, Plan, Evaluation -- for a logical presentation of the material that mirrors clinical reasoning. * Includes additional indices that categorize each topic four different ways -- body system, clinical diagnosis, presenting symptom, and lifespan -- to assist students in organizing study needs. * Provides ICD-9 codes for diagnostic classification and for insurance reimbursement. * Includes algorithms for conditions, providing a quick overview of diagnosis and treatment options. * Presents differential diagnoses and the supporting data in a table format for quick information access. * Outlines diagnostic and lab tests available for each condition in table format, and includes test outcomes and cost ranges to enable logical decision-making on low-cost, high-yield test options. * Presents pharmaceutical treatment plans in table format, including essential information on costs, pregnancy categories, and pediatric and geriatric dosages, to facilitate treatment options. * Includes many client education materials that students may copy and incorporate in their practice.
