Clinical Skills and the Ear, Nose, and Throat delivers a structured approach to understanding and mastering the clinical assessment and procedural skills that are essential for delivering safe, effective and compassionate care for patients with conditions affecting ENT.

Part of Peate's Clinical Skills, a 12-book series that combines knowledge of human anatomy and physiology with practical, confident clinical skills, this volume is organised into chapters covering how to engage with patients, assessing ENT, health promotion, planning care for the pre-operative phase, vital signs, medicine management, removal of ear wax, and specimen collection.

Clinical Skills and the Ear, Nose, and Throat equips readers with:

  • Clear explanations of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology relevant to ENT
  • Step-by-step guidance on assessment, examination, and procedural techniques, emphasising best practice and patient safety
  • Insights on interpreting findings, recognising abnormalities, and applying knowledge to guide care decisions
