Inhaltsangabe

A clinical reference for the primary care years.
This book is organized for the way primary care is actually practiced — across the lifespan, across the spectrum of common presentations, and across the chronic conditions that fill the panels of working family physicians. Twenty chapters, structured by clinical domain, present the evidence and operational frameworks behind contemporary outpatient practice.
Chapters cover the foundations of family medicine, preventive care across the lifespan, newborn through adolescent care, women’s and men’s health, care of the older adult, common acute outpatient presentations, chronic disease management, behavioral and mental health, multimorbidity and care transitions, and the professional practice of family medicine.
Recommendations cite operative guidelines current to early 2026, including the AHA PREVENT-ASCVD equations, the 2025 AHA/ACC hypertension guideline, the 2026 ACC/AHA dyslipidemia guideline, the ADA Standards of Care in Diabetes 2026, GINA and GOLD 2026, KDIGO 2024, the AGS 2023 Updated Beers Criteria, and the AAFP and AAP 2026 immunization schedules. Each chapter includes an edition note directing the reader to current sources for clinical application.
Written for family medicine residents, practicing primary care physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants in primary care, and medical students preparing for primary care rotations.
Twenty chapters. Seven parts. The breadth of family medicine, organized for the way it is practiced.
