Using a practical, case-based presentation, Pediatric Diagnostic
Medicine helps you develop diagnostic skills, gain further
knowledge through interesting cases, and improve critical thinking
to reach a correct diagnosis. Dr. Andrew J. White, vice chair of
education and director of the residency program at Washington
University in St. Louis, presents dozens of real-world cases
highlighted by full-color photographs. This unique case collection
is an invaluable resource for pediatricians, residents,
hospitalists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and anyone
who provides care to children. Uses case-based teaching to develop
higher-level medical thinking, based on James P. Keating's concept
of pediatric diagnostic medicine. Teaches how to think about a
patient's symptoms, dissect the issues, think backwards, and arrive
at the correct diagnosis. Presents notable clinical cases starting
with the presenting symptoms and then discussing vital signs,
patient and family history, lab results, consults, differential
diagnoses, and the ultimate diagnosis, finishing each case with
teaching points. Includes additional relevant information on each
case, such as why one diagnosis was chosen over another, or why
certain tests were not run. Enrich Your eBook Reading Experience
