Using a clear layout and matter-of-fact style, this book is the most comprehensive guide to basic clinical skills available.

- Takes a systems-based approach
- Includes just about every clinical skill taught in medical school
- Provides listings of the conditions most likely to be covered in your exam and valuable boxes of additional background information
- Written by recently qualified medical students who understand the real needs of students

The ideal clinical skills guide for all exam candidates, from third year to finals. No other book makes preparation for the OSCEs or PLAB so simple.

Clinical skills exams, such as OSCEs, are a daunting but essential component of medical undergraduate education.

To prepare for these exams, our generation of medical students had to pull together vast amounts of information from maladapted resources. This tedious and time-consuming process can now be avoided, as all this information has been compiled into this one, handy book.

Indeed, this book covers all the clinical skills that are likely to be tested during the clinical years of a medical course. Although it aims to be comprehensive and detailed, its primary purpose is to be easy to read and to the point. Clinical Skills for OSCEs does not attempt to teach its reader medicine or surgery, but rather gathers and organises a large amount of information and presents it in a structured and memorable fashion.

We hope you find Clinical Skills for OSCEs useful both for your revision and for the consolidation of skills learnt at the patient's bedside.
