"Clinical Applications of Pathophysiology: Assessment, Diagnostic Reasoning, and Management" explains and illustrates how pathophysiologic concepts are used in patient care. By understanding underlying pathophysiologic processes, the clinician can better interpret clinical manifestations, choose evaluative studies, initiate appropriate therapies, and anticipate potential complications. Organized by body system, this book covers 27 of the most commonly encountered health problems seen in clinical practice. Each chapter provides a summary of the disease, including definition, epidemiology, pathophysiology, patient presentation (history, symptoms, and examination), differential diagnosis, keys to evaluation, and keys to management. The application of pathophysiologic principles to the clinical setting is illustrated with representative case studies. Questions designed to promote continual critical thinking are integrated, relating to patient history, physical examination findings, lab and diagnostic studies, therapies, and follow-up care.
