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 teaches an evidence-based, step-by-step process for evaluating, diagnosing, and treating patients based on their clinical complaints. By applying this process, clinicians can accurately recognize specific diseases and prescribe the most effective therapy.

Each chapter is built around a common patient complaint, illustrating essential concepts and providing insight into the process by which the differential diagnosis (DDx) is identified. As the case unfolds, detailed explanations of clinical reasoning are provided. 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. As the chapter progresses, the pertinent diseases are reviewed, mimicking the stepwise nature of real-life diagnostic processes as tests are performed and diagnoses are confirmed or refuted.

Completely updated to reflect the latest research in clinical medicine, this fourth edition is enhanced with 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.

Notable changes in this edition 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, and Cough and Fever, and new guidelines have been included in the chapters on Screening, Diabetes, and Hypertension.
