Overview
Clinical Guidelines in Primary Care (3rd Edition) by Amelie Hollier is a quick-reference and review resource organized by body system, popular with nurse practitioner students and clinicians for its concise, guideline-based format. This study guide is built to follow it chapter by chapter, so you review in the same order it is organized — through cardiovascular, dermatologic, ear-nose-and-throat, endocrine, gastrointestinal, genetic, hematologic, neurologic, ophthalmic, orthopedic, psychiatric, and pulmonary disorders, along with child growth and development, men's and women's health, reproductive health, sexually transmitted diseases, urologic disorders, and physical examinations. It pulls out the high-yield diagnostic criteria, first-line treatments, and guideline-based management points you need for exams and clinical decision-making. It is an independent, aligned study companion — not the textbook itself and not a reproduction of its content.
Aligned with nurse practitioner primary-care courses and clinical practice, supporting course exams and the diagnosis-and-management content tested on NP certification exams.
