    Cover from actual book file





    Core Clinical Cases guides you to think of the patient as a whole, rather than as a sequence of unconnected symptoms. With its practical approach strongly linked to underlying theory, the series integrates your knowledge with the realities of managing clinical problems, and provides a basis for developing problem-solving skills.



    The core areas of undergraduate study are covered in a logical sequence of learning activities: each is followed by a detailed answer, along with a number of short-answer questions to help you practice for examinations in the first two to three years of your course. Mechanisms showing the pathogenesis of a disease process and explanations of the clinical findings and laboratory investigations have been included.



    This book provides a highly structured case history text covering each of the important components of the undergraduate biomedical sciences, in the form of 45 clinical scenarios. Each scenario is followed by eight to ten questions and answers with detailed feedback.





    Preface

    Most of the medical and health professional schools in the UK, North America, Middle East,

    South East Asia and Australia are moving to new courses, which are systems-based. In

    addition, many of these schools are implementing integrated problem-based learning or

    case-based approaches in their curricula. These new approaches aim at enhancing

    students’ understanding, critical thinking, reasoning and communication skills rather than

    rote or didactic learning.



    This book has been designed with these changes in mind, and with the aim to help

    students review knowledge learnt in basic sciences and practice clinical scenario-based

    questions. The questions in the book test a number of cognitive skills including hypotheses

    generation, collection of more information by asking history questions, interpretation of

    clinical findings and laboratory results, construction of mechanisms and refining their

    hypothesis on the basis of evidence available from history, clinical examination and

    investigations. It provides revision for basic sciences needed in these courses and allows

    for the discussion of 45 clinical scenarios addressing important principles related to

    different body systems. This approach is intended to emphasize the importance of

    knowledge of basic sciences for the understanding of medicine. It also aims at enhancing

    students’ skills and motivates them at an early stage of their course.



    The clinical cases chosen are those that enable students to discuss the relevance of many

    aspects of basic sciences in relation to specific clinical problems and demonstrate the role

    of basic sciences in understanding pathophysiology, differential diagnoses, laboratory and

    radiological changes and management options related to the cases.



    This book is not aimed at replacing standard textbooks recommended to students and

    other resources. A list of these resources, has been included at the end of the book as well

    as a list of useful reviews related to the principles discussed in the cases have been

    included at the end of each chaper. This book should be used in conjunction with your

    recommended textbooks; I would recommend using it as a review resource when you

    complete the study of a body system. It will also be useful for your study throughout the

    year and before summative examinations.
