DESCRIPTION
"This book is a tremendous asset for students and residents learning to develop their diagnostic skills. It can also be useful as a refresher for established clinicians when the more common diagnoses are not the cause of a patient's complaints."―Doody's Review
An engaging case-based approach to learning the diagnostic process in internal medicine, Symptom to Diagnosis has been recognized as one of Doody's Core Titles for 2021. This latest edition offers an evidence-based, step-by-step guide for evaluating, diagnosing, and treating patients based on their clinical complaints. By applying this structured process, clinicians can efficiently recognize specific diseases and prescribe the most effective therapy.
Each chapter revolves around a common patient complaint, illustrating essential concepts and providing insight into the process of identifying a differential diagnosis. As the case unfolds, detailed explanations of clinical reasoning are provided. The differential diagnosis for each case is summarized in tables that highlight clinical clues and important tests for both the leading diagnostic hypothesis and alternative diagnostic hypotheses. As the chapter progresses, pertinent diseases are reviewed, mirroring real-life scenarios where tests are performed, and diagnoses are either confirmed or refuted.
Completely updated to reflect the latest research in clinical medicine, the fourth edition includes new algorithms, summary tables, guiding questions for evaluation, and discussions on recently developed diagnostic tools and guidelines. Each chapter features clinical pearls, and coverage for each disease includes Textbook Presentation, Disease Highlights, Evidence-Based Diagnosis, and Treatment.
Notable updates include new algorithms and approaches in chapters on Chest Pain, Syncope, Dizziness, and others. Recently developed diagnostic tools are discussed in chapters on Diarrhea, Jaundice, Cough and Fever, and new guidelines are included in chapters on Screening, Diabetes, and Hypertension.
