Synopsis

Guidelines are issued regularly by governmental agencies, expert panels, medical specialty organizations and other professional and scientific organizations. With the dual rise of evidence-based medicine and managed care, guidelines increasingly determine clinical practice. Because guidelines change as new research reshapes recommendations, and because guidelines sometimes express different positions on the same topic, clinicians need help in selecting the most appropriate screening, preventive, or treatment measure for a given situation. This book meets that need. The book covers recognized screening and primary prevention and treatment recommendations for over 60 common conditions and guidelines are annotated with the most recent authoritative references and relevant Web addresses. Extensive appendices include screening instruments, immunization schedules, and professional and government Internet sites for access to latest updates and more. Also, the book is portable for on-the-spot consultation and tabbed and formatted for rapid access.
