Patients don't present with a disease; they present with symptoms.
Using a practical, symptom-based organization, Nelson Pediatric
Symptom-Based Diagnosis: Common Diseases and their Mimics, 2nd
Edition, offers authoritative guidance on differential diagnosis
and treatment of diseases and disorders in children and
adolescents, and covers the symptoms you're likely to see in
practice, their mimics, and uncommon disorders. Drs. Robert M.
Kliegman, Heather Toth, Brett J. Bordini, and Donald Basel walk you
through what to consider and how to proceed when faced with common
symptoms such as cough, fever, headache, autistic-like behaviors,
chronic pain, chest pain, gait disturbances, and much more. Begins
with a presenting symptom and leads you through differential
diagnosis and a concise review of treatment recommendations.
Contains more than a dozen new topics including Disease Mimics: An
Approach to Undiagnosed Diseases, Autistic-like Behaviors, Shock,
Hypertension, Neurocognitive and Developmental Regression, Chronic
Pain, Hypertonicity, Movement Disorders, Hypermobility, and more.
Features a new focus on symptoms of rarer diseases that are mimics
of more common diseases. Offers a user-friendly approach to Altered
Mental Status such as coma and other CNS disorders, with numerous
clinically useful tables and figures to guide clinical decision
making in various care settings. Uses a highly templated format for
easy reference and quick answers to clinical questions, with the
same consistent presentation in each chapter: History, Physical
Examination, Diagnosis (including laboratory tests), Imaging,
Diagnosis, and Treatment. Includes numerous full-color
illustrations, algorithms, tables, and "red flags" to aid
differential diagnosis. Serves as an ideal companion to Nelson
Textbook of Pediatrics, 21st Edition. Content in this book is
referenced and linked electronically to the larger text, providing
easy access to full background and evidence-based treatment and
management content when you own both references. Enhanced eBook
version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook allows you to
access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a
variety of devices.
