About the Oxford American Handbooks in Medicine
The Oxford American Handbooks are flexi-covered pocket clinical
books, providing practical guidance in quick reference, note form. Titles
cover major medical specialties or cross-specialty topics and are aimed at
students, residents, internists, family physicians, and practicing physicians
within specific disciplines.
Their reputation is built on including the best clinical information, com-
plemented by hints, tips, and advice from the authors. Each one is carefully
reviewed by senior subject experts, residents, and students to ensure that
content reflects the reality of day-to-day medical practice.
Key series features
- Written in short chunks, each topic is covered in a two-page spread to
enable readers to find information quickly. They are also perfect for
test preparation and gaining a quick overview of a subject without
scanning through unnecessary pages.
- Content is evidence based and complemented by the expertise and
judgment of experienced authors.
- The Handbooks provide a humanistic approach to medicine—it’s more
than just treatment by numbers.
- A “friend in your pocket,” the Handbooks offer honest, reliable guid-
ance about the difficulties of practicing medicine and provide coverage
of both the practice and art of medicine.
- For quick reference, useful “everyday” information is included on the
inside covers.
- Made with hard-wearing plastic covers, tough paper, and built-in ribbon
bookmarks, the Handbooks stand up to heavy usage.

This material is not intended to be, and should not be considered, a
substitute for medical or other professional advice. Treatment for the
conditions described in this material is highly dependent on the individual
circumstances. Although this material is designed to offer accurate infor-
mation with respect to the subject matter covered and to be current as
of the time it was written, research and knowledge about medical and
health issues are constantly evolving and dose schedules for medications
are being revised continually, with new side effects recognized and
accounted for regularly. Readers must, therefore, always check the product
information and clinical procedures with the most up-to-date published
product information and data sheets provided by the manufacturers and
the most recent codes of conduct and safety regulation. Oxford Univer-
sity Press and the authors make no representations or warranties to
readers, express or implied, about the accuracy or completeness of this

Preface
This book explains how to use a history, examination, and preliminary
tests to arrive at a diagnosis. This helps us as clinicians to anticipate what
may happen next and how interventions may influence the disease process.
We are also better equipped to share with our patients and colleagues
what we are thinking and doing.
The approach used here enables clinicians to focus on symptoms,
physical signs, and initial test results that are likely to lead to a diagnosis.
This is based on the principle that diagnostic leads with short differential
diagnoses will be more informative than those features with long lists of
causes.
Each sign or symptom on a page is followed by a list of diagnoses with
associated suggestive and confirmatory clinical and laboratory features.
The reader may scan down the page to see which entries are compatible
with the patient’s findings thus far. The compatible findings can then be
used as evidence for the diagnosis.
In the spirit of the Oxford American Handbooks, readers are encour-
aged to be critical about the contents of the book, to make changes, and
to let us know of any significant differences in opinion or errors.
