"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 in Doody's Core Titles for 2021! This latest edition teaches an evidence-based, step-by-step process for evaluating, diagnosing, and treating patients based on their clinical complaints. By applying this process, clinicians will be able to 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 by which the differential diagnosis is identified. As the case unfolds, clinical reasoning is explained in detail. The differential diagnosis for each case is summarized in tables that highlight the clinical clues and important tests for the leading diagnostic hypothesis and alternative diagnostic hypotheses. The pertinent diseases are reviewed as the chapter progresses, mirroring real-life clinical scenarios where tests are performed and diagnoses are confirmed or refuted.
Completely updated to reflect the latest research in clinical medicine, the fourth edition includes new algorithms, summary tables, questions that direct evaluation, and an examination of recently developed diagnostic tools and guidelines. Clinical pearls are featured in every chapter. Coverage for each disease includes: Textbook Presentation, Disease Highlights, Evidence-Based Diagnosis, and Treatment.
Significant updates include new algorithms and approaches in the chapters on Chest Pain, Syncope, Dizziness, and others. Recently developed diagnostic tools are discussed in the chapters on Diarrhea, Jaundice, Cough and Fever, while new guidelines have been incorporated into the chapters on Screening, Diabetes, and Hypertension.
