Prepare for success in today's fast-paced, collaborative healthcare
environment! Offering expert perspectives from a variety of primary
care and nurse practitioners, Primary Care: A Collaborative
Practice, 5th Edition helps you diagnose, treat, and manage
hundreds of adult disorders. Care recommendations indicate when to
consult with physicians or specialists, and when to refer patients
to an emergency facility. This edition includes six new chapters, a
fresh new design, the latest evidence-based guidelines, and a new
emphasis on clinical reasoning. Combining academic and clinical
expertise, an author team led by Terry Mahan Buttaro shows NPs how
to provide effective, truly interdisciplinary health care. UNIQUE!
A collaborative perspective promotes seamless continuity of care,
with chapters written by NPs, physicians, PAs, and other primary
care providers. Comprehensive, evidence-based content covers every
major disorder of adults seen in the outpatient office setting,
reflects today's best practices, and includes the knowledge you
need for the NP/DNP level of practice. A consistent format in each
chapter is used to describe disorders, facilitating easier learning
and quick clinical reference. Diagnostics and Differential
Diagnosis boxes provide a quick reference for diagnosing disorders
and making care management decisions. Complementary and alternative
therapies are addressed where supported by solid research evidence.
Referral icons highlight situations calling for specialist referral
or emergency referral. NEW chapters cover topics including
transitional care, risk management, LGBTQ patient care, bullous
pemphigoid, pulmonary embolism, and dysphagia. NEW! An emphasis on
clinical reasoning helps you develop skills in diagnosis and
treatment, with coverage moving away from pathophysiology and
toward diagnostic reasoning and disease management - including
pharmacologic management. NEW focus on interdisciplinary care
underscores the importance of interprofessional education and
practice, and includes Interdisciplinary Management features.
UPDATED chapters reflect the latest literature and evidence-based
treatment guidelines, including new content on the Affordable Care
Act as well as new coverage of patient satisfaction metrics,
quality metrics, value-based purchasing, pharmacogenetics/genomics,
and teen pregnancy and abnormal pregnancy. NEW quick-reference
features make it easier to locate important information, through
colorful section tabs, bulleted summaries, additional algorithms, a
more logical table of contents, an Index to Standardized Treatment
Guidelines, and a Reference to Common Laboratory Values.
