Publisher's Synopsis
Breaking away from the approach of the traditional medical handbook oriented by body systems, disease or diagnosis, this text is aimed more at the practising physician who is confronted with a patient symptom, physical sign or laboratory abnormality. This approach is designed to provide a more direct approach to breaking down extensive diagnosis into smaller, more manageable ones.;Intended for use at the patient's bedside, this book classifies common clinical symptoms and signs as they present themselves in daily practice. It provides a logical and concise approach from which they can profit and acquire medical reasoning.
