Mastering Practical Physiology (Volume 2): Advanced Physiology and Experimental Methods - A Complete Guide to Clinical Skills for Medical Students By Wayne K. Vanegas, PhD & Jerry T. Gonzales, MD, PhD A complete guide to mastering clinical examination and experimental physiology-designed for today's medical students. This volume equips students with advanced practical skills essential for clinical excellence and scientific inquiry. Written by seasoned educators Dr. Wayne K. Vanegas and Dr. Jerry T. Gonzales, the book blends real-world clinical insights with structured laboratory experimentation to foster diagnostic acumen and physiological reasoning. Section I: Clinical Examinations Covers systematic patient evaluation techniques-including cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and neurological assessments. Emphasis is placed on structured history taking, physical examination protocols, and the interpretation of signs such as pulse waveforms, reflexes, and cranial nerve function. Each chapter integrates clinical cases and practical guidance, ideal for OSCE preparation and real-life bedside application. Section II: Experimental Physiology Explores classic neuromuscular experiments, including the gastrocnemius-sciatic nerve setup, electrical stimulation, and kymographic analysis. Students are introduced to essential instruments such as the Du Bois-Reymond inductorium and electric kymograph, with step-by-step protocols, safety guidelines, and physiological interpretations. Key Features Dual focus: clinical skills and experimental lab techniques Clear objectives, procedures, and physiological interpretations Ideal for OSCE preparation, practical exams, and clerkship readiness Authored by experts in physiology, hematology, and medical education Designed for medical students, interns, and allied health learners Whether you're preparing for exams or building practical confidence, Mastering Practical Physiology (Volume 2) is your trusted companion for clinical and experimental mastery.
