Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Read the Signal, Fire the Response, Change the TrajectoryBuilt for the intensivist who must translate a bedside signal into a definitive action before the next hour costs the patient, this reference connects the physiology of critical illness - oxygen delivery, the delivery-dependent state, the Frank-Starling balance, the alveolar-capillary interface - to the specific decisions made at three in the morning in the intensive care unit. It moves from the mechanics of hemodynamics, gas exchange, and acid-base balance through the shock states, respiratory failure, multi-organ dysfunction, sepsis, trauma, and post-arrest care, into the humanistic close of the critical illness encounter.The Critical Care Decision Trigger System - a five-part callout embedded in every chapter and consolidated in the back-of-book Master Atlas - codifies the intensivist's core cognitive move into a repeated framework the reader applies under acute cognitive load.What This Book Puts in Your Hands- Classify undifferentiated shock at the bedside - RUSH-informed cardiac, IVC, and lung ultrasound integrated with invasive monitoring to name the mechanism within thirty minutes.- Read the ventilator screen - driving pressure, plateau pressure, and waveform-based dyssynchrony recognition for the ARDS lung, the obstructive lung, and the injured brain.- Escalate the failing ARDS patient - Berlin severity stratification, prone positioning per PROSEVA, and VV-ECMO timing per EOLIA and its Bayesian re-analysis.- Execute the sepsis one-hour bundle - 2026 Surviving Sepsis Campaign vasoactive selection, adjunctive corticosteroids, angiotensin II, and source-control timing that shortens mortality by the hour.- Manage the refractory cardiogenic patient - SCAI staging with Impella and VA-ECMO deployment before rather than after arrest, coordinated through the shock team.- Apply the tiered ICP algorithm and the multimodal post-arrest prognostication that avoids self-fulfilling prophecy in the first seventy-two hours.- Recognize the silent acute abdomen in the intubated sedated patient where acalculous cholecystitis and mesenteric ischemia declare only through rising lactate.- Close the encounter humanistically - A2F ICU Liberation Bundle, CAM-ICU delirium screening, structured family communication, and the transition to comfort-focused care as redirection rather than withdrawal.Open it before your next admission - the decisions every critically ill adult depends on, in one reference.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Built for the clinician who encounters the lesion, makes the call, and owns the outcome, this reference connects cutaneous pathophysiology to the diagnostic and management decisions made in clinic, on the ward, and in the emergency department. It moves from skin biology and the dermatologic examination through the full range of inflammatory, infectious, neoplastic, and systemic skin disease - and into the treatment choices that determine whether the diagnosis is made today or missed for months. Dermoscopic criteria, evidence-graded management algorithms, and the Dermatologic Mimicry Navigation System turn pattern recognition into clinical action at every decision point.What This Book Puts in Your HandsNavigate the mimicry traps that delay diagnosis - 33 indexed look-alike pairs, each with a one-line diagnostic anchor that separates the benign from the dangerous before biopsy results return.Triage pigmented lesions with dermoscopic precision - ABCDE and EFG criteria, ugly duckling detection, and the vascular-pattern signatures that catch nodular and amelanotic melanoma when classic algorithms fail.Stage and risk-stratify cutaneous malignancy - Breslow-driven surgical margins, SLNB indications informed by MSLT-II, and the immunotherapy and targeted-therapy landscape for advanced melanoma, SCC, BCC, and Merkel cell carcinoma.Select biologics by pathway - IL-23 and IL-17 inhibitors for psoriasis, dupilumab and JAK inhibitors for atopic dermatitis, with paradoxical-reaction recognition built into the prescribing logic.Recognize the skin as a systemic alarm - paraneoplastic dermatoses with malignancy-screening protocols, retiform purpura as a vascular-occlusion emergency, and the nail, hair, and pigmentary findings that diagnose endocrine, hepatic, and hematologic disease before the labs return.Manage dermatologic emergencies from the first hour - SCORTEN-scored SJS/TEN with pharmacogenomic prevention, erythroderma stabilization with Sezary exclusion, and the bradykinin-vs-histamine distinction that determines whether angioedema responds to epinephrine.Open it before your next clinic - the diagnostic decisions every skin patient depends on, in one reference.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Family Medicine Diagnosis & Treatment Handbook gives primary care clinicians a structured reference for symptom evaluation, chronic disease monitoring, prevention, lifespan care, behavioral health, medication safety, and referral decision-making. Built around The Primary Care Decision Arc System, it connects outpatient physiology, diagnostic probability, patient context, and follow-up responsibility to the clinical decisions that determine whether a patient can be managed safely in primary care or needs urgent escalation.The book moves from the foundations of family medicine through common presenting symptoms, longitudinal disease care, pediatric and geriatric medicine, reproductive health, behavioral health, substance use, multisystem inflammatory disease, and coordinated practice management.- Sort undifferentiated symptoms - use red flags, time course, risk context, testing thresholds, safety-netting, and follow-up intervals for fever, fatigue, chest pain, dyspnea, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, rash, and urinary symptoms.- Manage chronic disease longitudinally - monitor hypertension, diabetes, asthma, COPD, CKD, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, chronic pain, depression, and substance use with treatment anchors and escalation thresholds.- Practice lifespan family medicine - adapt care for newborns, children, adolescents, pregnancy-related visits, men's health, women's health, geriatrics, frailty, caregivers, and functional decline.- Prescribe with primary care safety logic - apply renal dosing, pregnancy and lactation review, geriatric prescribing, anticoagulation checks, controlled-substance monitoring, and deprescribing principles.- Recognize high-risk behavioral and social patterns - evaluate depression, anxiety, trauma, insomnia, suicide risk, substance use, pain, health equity barriers, and care-access failures.- Close the loop on care delivery - track abnormal results, referrals, transitions of care, remote monitoring data, preventive screening, immunizations, and medico-legal documentation.Choose this handbook to make every primary care visit more structured, safer to follow, and clearer to escalate when risk crosses the outpatient threshold.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. See the Lesion, Name the Pattern, Make the Decision - at the ChairsideThis reference teaches oral mucosal diagnosis the way the clinician actually works: morphology first. It builds from the histological architecture of masticatory, lining, and specialized mucosa through the full disease spectrum - white, red, pigmented, ulcerative, vesiculobullous, infectious, autoimmune, premalignant, and malignant - and into the pharmacotherapy that resolves each condition. Every diagnostic pathway begins with the visible lesion, not the suspected disease, giving the practitioner a structured sequence from observation to clinical decision that works under the time constraints of a real appointment.Forty-five integrated Morphology-First Diagnostic Pathways, clinical case scenarios with guided reasoning, evidence-graded treatment algorithms, and a back-of-book Master Atlas indexed by clinical presentation and anatomical site turn dense oral pathology into repeatable chairside decisions.What This Book Puts in Your Hands- Triage any mucosal lesion by color and morphology - structured pathways that separate erythroplakia from inflammatory erythema and leukoplakia from frictional keratosis before the biopsy decision is made.- Apply the two-biopsy protocol for desquamative gingivitis - lesional H&E plus perilesional DIF patterns that definitively distinguish pemphigus from pemphigoid from lichen planus.- Risk-stratify oral potentially malignant disorders - WHO dysplasia grading, site-specific transformation data, and surveillance intervals matched to histopathological findings.- Manage erosive lichen planus through the full treatment ladder - topical corticosteroid potency selection, calcineurin inhibitor transition, and systemic escalation with TPMT and G6PD screening protocols.- Recognize oral manifestations of systemic disease - the glossitis of B12 deficiency, the gingival infiltration of leukemia, and the pigmentation of Addison disease as first-presentation diagnostic clues.- Detect oral squamous cell carcinoma early - the palpation findings, the three-week rule, and the depth-of-invasion staging that determine surgical margins and neck dissection decisions.- Navigate drug-induced oral disease - temporal correlation frameworks for lichenoid reactions, DIGO, MRONJ, and checkpoint inhibitor toxicities that guide medication modification.- Prescribe from the evidence - forty-five indexed diagnostic pathways consolidated in the Morphology-First Master Atlas for rapid clinical lookup between patients.Open it before your next mucosal finding - the structured diagnostic method every oral medicine decision depends on, in one reference.
