"Patients present with symptoms not diseases. They rely on healthcare professionals to accurately interpret them. Answering questions about patient symptoms requires good communication but also accurate interpretation of the patient's description based on knowledge of what is being described. Exploring Symptoms describes the connection between the underlying science of symptoms and the words used by patients to describe them. Though many patients may have a particular disease, each person's experience, and description of it is unique to them. Nonetheless, connecting science, the patient's words, and studies of how symptoms are presented in disease facilitates clinical reasoning and diagnostic accuracy. It is safer for patients and more professionally satisfying for clinicians. Importantly, it may lead to more judicious use of finite resources with more appropriate choice of limited diagnostic technologies"--

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Understand the relationship between disease and description with this invaluable guide Correctly interpreting patient symptoms is one of the most critical components of medical diagnosis and treatment. Though each instance of any given disease will share features with others, each patients experience is unique, and assessment of their condition depends on taking and interpreting an individual patients history. Correct diagnosis and treatment decisions rely on a sound, evidence-based approach to this crucial clinical interaction. Exploring Symptoms - An Evidence-based Approach to the Patient History offers a rigorous analysis of the complex relationship between symptoms and patient communication. Carefully connecting basic sciences such as anatomy and physiology with the development of symptoms in each body system, this book surveys evidence for how patients tend to experience and describe symptoms and how these descriptions can shape diagnosis and treatment. Its a must-have volume for students and clinicians looking to concretely improve patient outcomes. Exploring Symptoms - An Evidence-based Approach to the Patient History readers will also find: Detailed discussion of patient thresholds for presenting symptoms to healthcare professionals Analysis of individual symptom epidemiology and its general expression at both the patient and population level An inclusive approach with concrete advice for addressing the needs of a diverse patient body Exploring Symptoms - An Evidence-based Approach to the Patient History is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as healthcare educators and postgraduate-allied health professionals. It is also a useful tool for early-years practitioners and general practitioners. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
