Download or read book Cases in Chemical Pathology written by R N Walmsley and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 1992-10-28 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the clinical aspects and interpretation of test results of disorders commonly encountered by clinicians and the chemical pathology laboratory. It is structured around actual case material seen in the author's laboratory and emphasizes the selection of tests and interpretation of results. Each of the 25 chapters deals with a single analyte or a single organ system and includes case material, discussion of evaluation of the particular disorder, and interpretation of test results. The content is non-specialised enough to be followed by general practitioners but sufficiently detailed to appeal to the more specialised practitioner. It will be particularly useful to medical students who first embark on a study of this subject, the clinical biochemists at the bench, and students preparing for College examinations such as those for physicians, pathologists and surgeons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 77-year-old man phones ‘999’ after experiencing severe backache. The paramedics arrive to find him in severe pain, and cold and clammy. While at his house, they note that he smokes and also elicit a history of hypertension. He is tachycardic and hypotensive en route to hospital, and intravenous fluids are started. You have been assigned his initial assessment ... 100 Cases in Clinical Pathology and Laboratory Medicine presents 100 clinical scenarios commonly seen by medical students and junior doctors in the emergency department, outpatient clinic, operating theatre or in general practice. A succinct summary of the patient's history, examination and initial investigations is followed by questions on each case, with particular emphasis on the interpretation of the results and in which an understanding of the underlying clinical pathology is central to arriving at the correct diagnosis. The answer includes a detailed discussion on each topic, providing an essential revision aid as well as a practical guide for students and junior doctors, especially those preparing for undergraduate and postgraduate examinations. Making speedy and appropriate clinical decisions, and choosing the best course of action to take as a result, is one of the most important and challenging parts of training to become a doctor. Fully revised and updated for this second edition, these true-to-life cases will teach students and junior doctors to recognize important clinical conditions, to request the appropriate pathological investigation and correctly interpret those results, and, as a result, to develop their diagnostic and management skills.
Download or read book Clinical Chemistry written by William J. Marshall and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical Chemistry considers what happens to the body’s chemistry when affected by disease. It provides introductory coverage of the scientific basis for biochemistry tests routinely used in medicine - including tests for the assessment of organ function, diagnosis and monitoring disease activity and therapy efficacy. Each topic area begins with a concise description of the underlying physiological and biochemical principles and then applies them to patient investigation and management. The regular use of case histories helps further emphasise clinical relevance and chapter key points, as well as provide a useful starting point for examination revision. The clear and engaging writing style appreciated by generations of readers has been retained in this ninth edition, while the content has been thoroughly updated throughout. The approach and scope of this trusted text makes it ideal for integrated medical curricula, for medical training and for students and practitioners of clinical and biomedical science. The complementary eBook version, including additional cases and self-assessment material, completes this superb learning package. Updated to incorporate the latest changes in practice – including new tests and the most recent evidence-based guidance – plus a new chapter on clinical chemistry in pediatrics. Figures, tables, boxes, and case studies aid understanding and learning. ‘Light bulb’ sections give practical advice and clarify difficult concepts or potential pitfalls. New ‘Red flag’ boxes highlight the results which should cause immediate concern to clinicians. Updated references to core guidelines reflect latest best practice.

Download or read book Diagnostic Reasoning written by Ibrahim A. Hashim and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-09-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Training in clinical chemistry is acquired via different avenues that include didactic lectures on pathophysiology of disease, methodologies and practical aspects of testing, and through attendance of operations meetings, sign-out sessions, seminars and tutorials. There is little instruction on how to apply the vast amount of knowledge gained in the process to practice. In other branches of medicine, cases are regularly presented with clinical information and therapeutic interventions which form the basis of training. Diagnostic Reasoning: Laboratory Based Case Studies in Clinical Chemistry fills this gap for clinical chemistry. The concise and practical approach of the book, including real-life scenarios, is an excellent resource for pathology trainees, clinical laboratory science students, clinical chemistry fellows, clinical laboratory professionals, and clinicians. These cases help professionals remain competent in the field and be successful in their board exams. The cases are stated as they present, often with no or few clinical details accompanying the sample request with only barcoded samples arriving into the laboratory. In a busy laboratory, thousands of these cases are received daily and it is impossible to review the clinical information associated with the specimens. There are no books with a similar approach and emphasis Fills the gap in teaching by addressing the subject from a laboratory practical prospective with concomitant application of evidence-based laboratory investigation Presents laboratory data in tabulated format to resemble real-life scenarios, shows list of abbreviations and conversion factors Cases begin with clinical presentation and information not available to those within the clinical laboratory Discusses the differential diagnosis and suggests additional testing or investigations as necessary
Download or read book A Primer of Chemical Pathology written by E. S. C. Koay and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written primarily for medical students and junior doctors in clinical practice, but would also be a useful reference for postgraduate students in chemical pathology (clinical biochemistry), laboratory scientists, pathologists and medical laboratory technologists. It covers the field of chemical pathology, the biochemical basis of disease, and provides a basic understanding of the relationship between abnormal biochemical test results and disease states. A rational approach to proper selection and interpretation of biochemical investigations is adopted for each organ system or analyte covered in the 28 chapters. Emphasis is placed on areas and problems most commonly met with in clinical practice. Meant primarily as an introductory study book to the subject rather than as a reference text, the materials have been presented in a clear, condensed format to aid the study process. The written text is amply supplemented with relevant illustrations.
