With a focus on illustrating care that is both competent and compassionate, this workbook-style resource features 101 engrossing narrative case studies that demonstrate how best to diagnose, treat, and manage a patient based on the history of the illness, a review of systems, relevant patient history, and physical exam findings. Readers will find probing questions within each case to help them determine differential and most likely diagnoses, diagnostic tests to order, and appropriate patient management strategies using relevant references. Each case study is organized to simulate the patient care journey from chief complaint to outcome. The second edition not only updates cases to reflect newest guidelines and protocols but also features 25 brand new cases and expands the body systems addressed including Psych-Mental Health. Twenty-five cases are available online to faculty for student assignment.


Covering conditions across all organ systems and the lifespan, the workbook offers an authentic perspective on what to expect in the patient care environment. It even includes information on pathophysiology and how to use ICD-10 codes in documentation. Unique to the book is its emphasis on both the science and art of medicine by including personal insights into quality and compassionate care. Serving a virtual clinical preceptor, the workbook can be used independently or in a classroom setting. It is accompanied by an online student supplement on Springer's Connect website providing answers and rationale to all questions, real outcomes of the cases, and personal insights from case contributors. Purchase includes online access via most mobile devices or computers.
