「分からない」がヒントになる、治療への手引き 臨床経験が浅い研修医には、教科書どおりの検査結果が得られない場合など、次に何をすべきか分からない状況に遭遇することも多くあります。そのような「わからない」状況に陥った研修医向けに、患者を治癒に導くために必要な「こうすれば何とかなる」やりかたを提供する書籍です。症状を見て、積極的な絞り込みをかけるやり方を知識として集約。経験豊富な医師であればとっさにできる判断や手順をチャート化して紹介しています。

The Oxford English Dictionary defines diagnosis as:'Identification of a disease by careful investigation of its symptoms and history'. Regrettably, the value of the history in the diagnosis of disease often seems to be neglected in both undergraduate and postgraduate medical education. The considerable advances in medical technology have made it easy to carry out a multiplicity of tests. As a result, there is frequently an unfortunate tendency to rely on the results of tests before decisions are taken on diagnosis and treatment, even though such tests are often of limited value in the manage­ ment of the patients. This book is an attempt to redress the balance and place the proper emphasis on the diagnostic value of a well-taken and perspicacious history. The main purpose of the book is to show that most of the clinical problems encountered in daily practice can be dealt with effectively and satisfactorily on the basis of a good clinical history. This should be supplemented by a prob­ lem-orientated clinical examination, the primary function of which is either to confirm and amplify the diagnosis provided by the history, or to refute it.

In dit boek wordt de basis gelegd voor een goed begrip voor de interne en chirurgische ziektebeelden, samen met de basiswerken Anatomie en fysiologie en Algemene ziekteleer, die hierop aansluiten.et toedienen, verdunnen en oplossen van geneesmiddelen in de patiëntenzorg. Het boek begint met het hoofdstuk medisch meedenken. Bij alle onderdelen van het diagnostisch proces spelen verpleegkundigen een belangrijke rol. Aan de hand van casuïstiek wordt verhelderd hoe het diagnostisch proces verloopt en hoe verpleegkundigen hierin een rol kunnen en moeten spelen. In de volgende hoofdstukken worden de verschillende meest voorkomende ziektebeelden met hun verschijnselen, complicaties en behandeling naar orgaansysteem beschreven. Steeds wordt geprobeerd om de verschijnselen en complicaties vanuit de fysiologie te verklaren, zodat de verpleegkundigen beter kunnen observeren (wat kan men observeren, hoe kan men observeren en met welk doel wordt geobserveerd) en daardoor beter kunnen signaleren en beredeneren welke verpleegkundige interventies noodzakelijk zijn.

Doody Rating : 5 stars : The contents of this book are focused on commonly encountered symptoms, with their differential diagnosis in a concise form, which will lead to a working diagnosis and investigations. The emphasis is on the axiom, ‘common diseases present commonly, and its converse, uncommon diseases present uncommonly'. However, pointers to ‘red flags', i.e. uncommon manifestations of common diseases should alert the physician of serious diseases not to be missed. No attempt has been made to discuss etiology or pathology of illness, or the complexities of practice management. The frequency with which a disease is encountered by physician will depend upon its prevalence in the region from which their patients are drawn and also their specialty; therefore, regional variations in the incidence of diseases or methodology, or guidelines for investigations and diagnosis are not discussed, which can be accessed from other relevant sources. The book assumes much basic knowledge and the information it contains must be supplemented by further reading. Cover a spectrum of symptoms, with emphasis on practical features of diagnosis, based on recent evidence-based guidelines. The contents of the book are intended for medical students, internists, and house-officers during their daily office or hospital practice, and also to physicians to boost their diagnostic skills during busy practice day, and preparation for ‘rounds'and clinical teaching.

This pocket reference and revision guide is a must for all medical students and junior doctors preparing for major exams in clinical medicine or needing a rapid reminder of essential facts during a clinical attachment. Now thoroughly updated, this new edition combines the first editions of Rapid Medicine and Rapid Differential Diagnosis and contains reference to over 200 common medical conditions and diseases and 350 signs and symptoms encountered on a daily basis on the wards, in clinics and in exams.
