A significant proportion of skin disease develops rapidly, is
highly symptomatic and can be associated with considerable
morbidity. While most patients with acute skin disorders are
initially seen by primary care services, acute dermatology is also
encountered in hospital emergency departments and in dermatology
clinics. This comprehensive reference on relevant acute dermatology
is designed to encourage a structured and thorough clinical
technique. The sections have been written so that essential
information about each disease is summarized in a clear and concise
way. After a brief introduction, there is a description of the
clinical features, followed by a differential diagnosis, a list of
important systemic associations and the relevant investigations.
Treatment is divided into two sections, the first stating the
immediate action required to prevent further deterioration and the
second discussing long-term management considerations. Each
condition described and discussed is illustrated by clinical
pictures. It is hoped that this book will enable all medical staff
seeing patients with acute skin problems to practice more
effectively. It is aimed at primary care physicians, nurse
specialists, emergency department staff and dermatologists. It
should also appeal to the general physician who is interested in
dermatology.
