Le Guide de l'examen clinique de Barbara Bates reste une référence d'apprentissage pour les étudiants en médecine qui doivent acquérir un savoir-faire médical: dialoguer avec un patient, l'écouter, l'examiner, savoir pratiquer et interpréter l'examen clinique pour comprendre et évaluer ses problèmes. Dans la lignée de la 5e édition, la 6e édition comprend trois parties: La première partie, Les bases de l'évaluation de l'état de santé, initie les étudiants à l'interrogatoire du patient et à l'examen clinique. Un exemple de compte rendu d'observation complet et une note d'évolution illustrent les propos théoriques. Des recommandations aident à rédiger un compte rendu d'observation succinct et bien structuré. Un état des connaissances précise la nature et les indications des principales techniques d'examen, du matériel le plus fréquemment utilisé, et des précautions standards et universelles à respecter. Cette première partie s'enrichit d'une présentation du processus du raisonnement clinique et des méthodes d'évaluation des données cliniques et explique les techniques d'un interrogatoire adroit mettant l'accent sur l'importance de l'empathie, de l'éthique et le respect de l'environnement culturel. La deuxième partie, Examens régionaux, traite de l'examen physique du patient, qu'il soit général ou par appareil, et des techniques de mesure des constantes vitales. La prise en compte et l'évaluation des douleurs aiguë et chronique devient une entité à part entière. Les chapitres détaillent les techniques d'examen des différents organes avec, pour chaque appareil, un rappel anatomique et physiologique et des exemples de transcription de compte rendu d'observation. Des questions clés sont mises en relief pour établir clairement les antécédents et l'histoire de la maladie du patient. Chaque chapitre précise par ailleurs, les messages de promotion de la santé les plus récents et les conseils à donner au patient. En fin de chapitre, des tableaux aident les étudiants à reconnaître et comparer des anomalies proposées. Dans la troisième partie : Populations particulières, les lecteurs trouveront les chapitres concernant les problématiques particulières liées à certaines étapes de la vie : l'enfance, la grossesse et la vieillesse.
