Abstract

In der medizinischen Betreuung von Patienten werden die Diagnostischen Pfade immer wichtiger. Sie helfen bei der Strukturierung des gesamten klinischen Prozesses von der Aufnahmediagnose bis zum Entlassungsbrief. Diagnostische Pfade senken deshalb auch die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Fehlbehandlung sowie die Verweildauer des Patienten in der Klinik und die Kosten der Behandlung.Das auf diesem Gebiet einzigartige Buch begleitet die praktische Implementierung von Diagnostikpfaden in KIS und LIS mit Hilfe von standardisierten Algorithmen, geordnet nach Indikationen und Symptomen. Vorhandene Algorithmen werden weiterentwickelt und erläutert. This unique book supports the practical implementation of diagnostic pathways in HIS and LIS using standardized algorithms, classified according to indications and symptoms.

Abstract

The explosion of insights in the field of metabolic disease has shed new light on diagnostic as well as treatment options.  ‘Inherited Metabolic Disease – A Clinical Approach’ is written with a reader-friendly consistent structure. It helps the reader to find the information in an easily accessible and rapid way when needed. Starting with an overview of the major groups of metabolic disorders it includes algorithms with questions and answers as well as numerous graphs, metabolic pathways, and an expanded index. Clinical and diagnostic details with a system and symptom based are given to facilitate an efficient and yet complete diagnostic work-up of individual patients. Further, it offers helpful advice for emergency situations, such as hypoglycemia, hyperammonemia, lactic acidosis or acute encephalopathy. Five different indices allow a quick but complete orientation for common important constellations. Last but not least, it has an appendix with a guide to rapid differential diagnosis of signs and symptoms and when not to suspect metabolic disease. It will help physicians to diagnose patients they may otherwise fail to diagnose and to reduce unnecessary referrals. For metabolic and genetic specialists especially the indices will be helpful as a quick look when being called for advice. It has all it needs to become a gold standard defining the clinical practice in this field.

Abstract

This book focuses on clinical presentations that may be caused by inherited metabolic diseases. Its symptom- and system-based approach will help clinicians with and without detailed knowledge of human biochemistry in all specialties to reach a correct diagnosis and institute the optimal treatment program. The book summarizes the central elements of inherited metabolic diseases and describes clearly how to carry out an efficient yet complete diagnostic work-up, thereby guiding the clinician from the presenting symptoms and signs through to effective initial management. After an introduction to the different disorders, the book explains when to consider an inborn metabolic error and which initial tests to order. Core aspects such as structured communication, guidelines, transition, pregnancy, maternal care and how to respond to various medical emergencies are covered. Therapeutic concepts such as dietary treatment are delineated and practical advice provided on the quite different treatment approaches required for individual diseases. An extensive section structured according to organ systems outlines the correct approach in the context of specific symptoms and signs. The value of each of the potential investigations is explained, with precise advice on the interpretation of results. The inclusion of algorithms, tables, lists, and charts facilitates rapid decision making and information retrieval, and the appendices include a helpful guide to differential diagnosis based on clinical and biochemical phenotypes. This new updated edition of Inherited Metabolic Diseases will be an invaluable aid for the busy clinician and an excellent quick reference for metabolic and genetic specialists.

Abstract

In der medizinischen Betreuung werden Diagnostische Pfade zunehmend wichtiger: Sie unterstützen die Strukturierung des klinischen Prozesses von der Aufnahmediagnose bis zum Entlassungsbrief und senken somit die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Fehlbehandlung, Verweildauer und Behandlungskosten des Patienten im Krankenhaus. Die 2. Auflage des Handbuchs umfasst Grundlagen, praktische Umsetzungsvorschläge und enthält typische Praxisbeispiele. The 2. edition of this unique book supports the practical implementation of diagnostic pathways in HIS and LIS using standardized algorithms, classified according to indications and symptoms.

Abstract

The prognosis of a disease often depends on the timing of therapeutic invention, which in turn strongly relies on a reliable and quick diagnosis. Laboratory diagnostic pathways are algorithms that give structure to the diagnostic process, thereby minimizing the risk of mistreatment, shortening the hospital stay, and lowering the cost for treatment. This book offers 70 diagnostic algorithms that lead physicians and laboratory personnel through the diagnostic process in a step-by-step fashion. In Part One, general basics, infrastructure, and economic aspects are discussed and tipps for implementation are given. Part Two introduces screening methods for cases without a suspected diagnosis as well as specific pathways for stepwise diagnosis of the most common diseases, accompanied by information on pathophysiology, preanalytical measures, implementation, and interpretation of results.

Abstract

Die Aussagekraft eines Laborbefundes hängt entscheidend von der Präanalytik ab, also von Prozessen, die vor der eigentlichen Messung der Proben im Labor ablaufen. Dieses Buch beschreibt alle präanalytischen Variablen - Indikation der Anforderung über Probengewinnung, Transport und Lagerung der Proben und Vorverarbeitung dieser für die Analyse - und definiert Qualitätskriterien der einzelnen Aspekte im Sinne einer evidenz-basierten Medizin. The preanalytical phase is an important component of Laboratory medicine and errors arising in this phase affect the validity of laboratory results. In this book physicians and clinical staff have access to valuable information about the current preanalytical variables and factors (patient preparation, sample collection, handling and processing before analysis).
