PDF-(BOOK)-Risk and Reasoning in Clinical Diagnosis

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of medical practice but at the start of the diagnostic process uncertainty is inevitable The clinicians skills and cognitive attributes determine the quality of the initial differential diagnosis and thus the crucial first phases of investigation andtreatment mistakes are often selfpropagating Diagnostic error is a major cause of avoidable morbidity and mortality and is the commonest reason for successful litigationRisk and Reasoning in Clinical Diagnosis is an accessible and readable look at the diagnostic process Dr Cym Ryle presents the insights and concepts developed in cognitive psychology which have led to the consensus that in all domains human reasoning is primarily driven by unconscious intuitivemechanisms the contribution of structured analytical thinking is variable and inconsistent He notes that the risk of error is inseparable from these mechanismsDr Ryle then develops a description of the diagnostic process which encompasses its form strengths and fallibility and illustrates this description with examples from his work as a general practitioner He argues that improving diagnostic accuracy should be a priority and that there issufficient evidence to guide changes in medical training in clinical practice and in the culture and organisation of our institutions He identifies specific practical steps that can be taken by individual clinicians and by clinical teams suggests priorities for action in our institutions andconsiders the obstacles to progress.

The clinician\'s skills and cognitive attributes determine the quality of the initial differential diagnosis and thus the crucial first phases of investigation andtreatment mistakes are often self-propagating. Diagnostic error is a major cause of avoidable morbidity and mortality, and is the commonest reason for successful litigation.Risk and Reasoning in Clinical Diagnosis is an accessible and readable look at the diagnostic process. Dr. Cym Ryle presents the insights and concepts developed in cognitive psychology which have led to the consensus that in all domains human reasoning is primarily driven by unconscious, intuitivemechanisms the contribution of structured, analytical thinking is variable and inconsistent. He notes that the risk of error is inseparable from these mechanisms.Dr. Ryle then develops a description of the diagnostic process which encompasses its form, strengths and fallibility, and illustrates this description with examples from his work as a general practitioner. He argues that improving diagnostic accuracy should be a priority, and that there issufficient evidence to guide changes in medical training, in clinical practice, and in the culture and organisation of our institutions. He identifies specific, practical steps that can be taken by individual clinicians and by clinical teams, suggests priorities for action in our institutions, andconsiders the obstacles to progress. \"Publisher\'s Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.

The ultimate guide to the evidence-based clinical encounterA Doody\'s Core Title for 2015!This book is an excellent source of supported evidence that provides useful and clinically relevant information for the busy practitioner, student, resident, or educator who wants to hone skills of physical diagnosis. It provides a tool to improve patient care by using the history and physical examination items that have the most reliability and efficiency.--Annals of Internal MedicineThe evidence-based examination techniques put forth by Rational Clinical Examination is the sort that can be brought to bear on a daily basis - to save time, increase confidence in medical decisions, and help decrease unnecessary testing for conditions that do not require absolute diagnostic certainty. In the end, the whole of this book is greater than its parts and can serve as a worthy companion to a traditional manual of physical examination.--Baylor University Medical Center (BUMC)Proceedings5 STAR DOODY\'S REVIEW!Physical diagnosis has been taught to every medical student but this evidence-based approach now shows us why, presenting one of medicine\'s most basic tenets in a new and challenging light. The format is extraordinary, taking previously published material and updating the pertinent evidence since the initial publication, affirming or questioning or refining the conclusions drawn from the data.This is a book for everyone who has studied medicine and found themselves doubting what they have been taught over the years, not that they have been deluded, but that medical traditions have been unquestionably believed because there was no evidence to believe otherwise. The authors have uncovered the truth.This extraordinary, one-of-a-kind book is a valuable addition to every medical library.--Doody\'s Review ServiceCompletely updated with new literature analyses, here is a uniquely practical, clinically relevant approach to the use of evidence in the content of physical examination. Going far beyond the scope of traditional physical examination texts, this invaluable resource compiles and presents the evidence-based meanings of signs, symptoms, and results from physical examination maneuvers and other diagnostic studies. Page after page, you\'ll find a focus on actual clinical questions and presentations, making it an incomparably practical resource that you\'ll turn to again and again.Importantly, the high-yield content of The Rational Clinical Examination is significantly expanded and updated from the original JAMA articles, much of it published here for the first time.
