It is vitally important for medical students and junior doctors to
grasp an understanding of 'real-life medicine'. This innovative
book of cases shows how a particular presentation may progress, and
the different complications that may arise and emerge over time,
which may be missed by the 'snapshot in time' approach taken by
many problem-based volumes. The content reflects the average length
of stay for a patient in hospital, in which their situation can
change in a multitude of ways, and the management of chronic
conditions may also need to be adapted as complications arise.
Demonstrates the real bedside experiences that medical students can
expect, in whichever simple or complex way that they may present
Cases selected from a range of sub-specialties for comprehensive
coverage across the curriculum Illustrates the complicated,
progressive problems that will be seen while practicing as a doctor
with detailed diagrams and diagnostic imagery to aid understanding
Shows, with timepoints, how differential diagnoses may change as
more information becomes available and new symptoms arise Describes
a typical initial hospital stay, and subsequent presentations to
the general practitioner and hospital readmission The Authors
