This book was released on 2015-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, psychologists are in the process of adapting to the World Health Organization's International Classification of Diseases (ICD), which was recently integrated-with clinical modifications (ICD-10-Cm)-into the U.S. health care system. This easy-to-read guide teaches students a conceptual framework for assessment and diagnosis with the ICD-10-CM as its foundation. Schaffer and Rodolfa begin with a brief primer on the ICD-10-CM, demonstrating how to interpret diagnostic codes and use them as guides for critical thinking. At the core of the book are three detailed case examples, each of which describes a client who illustrates a common yet very different clinical scenario. These cases demonstrate how to collect and interpret data to formulate possible diagnoses. Potential ethical and risk management issues are examined, as are considerations for developing an intervention plan. Book jacket.

This book was released on 2019-11-29 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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 Doody's Core Titles for 2023! Symptom to Diagnosis, Fourth 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 is built around a common patient complaint that illustrates essential concepts and provides insight into the process by which the differential diagnosis is identified. As the case progresses, clinical reasoning is explained in detail. The differential diagnosis for that particular 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. Just as in real life, the case unfolds in a stepwise fashion 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 by 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.

Download or read book The Student s Guide to Medical Diagnosis Classic Reprint written by Samuel Fenwick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Student's Guide to Medical Diagnosis The art of diagnosis would be readily acquired if the symptoms Of each disease were in all cases the same; but this is not so. Although therefore the rules laid down will generally sufice, yet you will occasionally meet with cases in which the accustomed signs are absent, or in which unusual symptoms are present. For instance, no complaint has more strongly marked signs than peritonitis the excessive and general pain of the abdomen, the great tenderness on pressure, the rapid, wiry pulse - and yet you may meet with fatal peritonitis with scarcely any pain, or with out tenderness, or with a pulse not above the normal standard. In order to obtain the necessary Skill in diagnosis, it will be requisite that you should practise the taking Of cases. You should record the symptoms and phy sical signs present in each case, the order in which the symptoms have been developed, the treatment adopted, the progress of the disease, and, if it terminate fatally, you should add the morbid appearances discovered after death. You will readily understand that unless some plan is adopted, there is great probability that you will either encumber your description Of the dis ease with a number Of unnecessary details, or overlook important facts. I have therefore added the following suggestions for a plan, which you may perhaps find useful until experience enables you to propose a better. Commence with the name and address of your patient, his age, and occupation. - The age is important, because many diseases, such as cancer, are chiefly found at cer tain periods of life. The nature of the occupation Often gives a clue to the complaint; as, for instance, painters and other workers in lead are especially liable to colic and paralysis.
