Clinical Thinking

Clinicians are taught masses of facts, but not how to use them in the messy reality of patient care. This book provides a missing link between evidence and the clinical coalface. Though there are plenty of guides to evidence-based medicine, few explain how to build the information into patient oriented decision-making. <i>Clinical Thinking</i> allows you to think both logically and laterally about daily clinical issues and look at problems from different angles.<br /> <ul> <li style=”list-style: none”><br /> </li> <li>Uses realistic scenarios, frameworks and models<br /> </li> <li>Takes you through the whole decision-making process, from observation and narrative to evaluating the best evidence for the individual situation<br /> </li> <li>Illustrations and flow charts help clarify this new approach<br /> </li> <li>These methods have been tried and tested by the authors, internationally respected general practitioners and teachers in primary care – all leaders in the evidence-based medicine movement</li> </ul> <br /> <p><br /> </p> <p>This book takes clinical medicine a big step forward in the direction of patient-focused practice!</p>
