Physical Examination and Health Assessment, 9th Edition by Carolyn Jarvis PhD APN CNP and Ann L. Eckhardt PhD RN is the #1 Best Seller in Nursing Assessment and the most widely used, authoritative, and easily implemented learning solution for health assessment in nursing. Published by Elsevier in March 2023 and rated 4.6 stars by over 174 reviewers, this text is the hub of a tightly integrated learning package built on Jarvis's clear, logical, and holistic approach to physical examination across the patient lifespan.
The 9th Edition is packed with vivid illustrations, step-by-step guidance, and evidence-based content for a complete approach to health assessment. With an enhanced focus on today's need-to-know information, this edition integrates concepts from the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) initiative, concepts of interprofessional collaboration, expanded transgender considerations, and integrated resources for success on the Next Generation NCLEX (NGN). Updated photos identify common skin conditions in both light and dark skin, increasing inclusivity and representation.
Key topics include: the health history and interview, mental status assessment, skin, hair, and nails, head and neck, eyes and ears, thorax and lungs, cardiovascular system, abdomen, musculoskeletal system, neurological system, and assessment across the lifespan including pediatric, pregnant, and older adult patients. Essential for students in BSN, ADN, and NP programs preparing for the NCLEX-RN, NGN, and ANCC certification examinations.
"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
