paperback. Condición: Near Fine. PAPERBACK, fresh attractive copy, near fine and appears little used if at all. CROSKERRY, PAT / COSBY, KAREN S. / GRABER, MARK L. / SINGH, HARDEEP. Diagnosis: interpreting the shadows. Boca Raton, FL: CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, 2017, 370pp., . "Despite diagnosis being the key feature of a physician's clinical performance, this is the first book that deals specifically with the topic. In recent years, however, considerable interest has been shown in this area and significant developments have occurred in two main areas : a) an awareness and increasing understanding of the critical role of clinical decision making in the process of diagnosis, and of the multiple factors that impact it, and b) a similar appreciation of the role of the healthcare system in supporting clinicians in their efforts to make accurate diagnoses. Although medicine has seen major gains in knowledge and technology over the last few decades, there is a consensus that the diagnostic failure rate remains in the order of 10-15%. This book provides an overview of the major issues in this area, in particular focusing on where the diagnostic process fails, and where improvements might be made." - CONTENTS: Section I : Models of diagnosis -- What is diagnosis? / Karen Cosby -- Medical decision making / Karen Cosby -- Modern cognitive approaches to the diagnostic process / Pat Croskerry -- Section II : Informal and alternative approaches to diagnosis -- Alternatives to conventional medical diagnosis / Pat Croskerry -- Complementary and alternative medicine / Pat Croskerry -- Section III : The elements of reasoning -- Stone age minds in modern medicine : ancient footprints everywhere / Pat Croskerry -- Cognitive and affective biases, and logical failures / Pat Croskerry -- The rational diagnostician / Pat Croskerry -- Individual variability in clinical decision making and diagnosis / Pat Croskerry -- Section IV : Challenges and controversies in diagnosis -- Diagnostic error / Karen Cosby -- The role of the healthcare system in diagnostic success or failure / Karen Cosby -- Do teams make better diagnoses? / Karen Cosby -- How much diagnosis can we afford? / Karen cosby and Mark L.

Paperback. Condición: New. Behind heart disease and cancer, medical error is now listed as one of the leading causes of death. Of the many medical errors that may lead to injury and death, diagnostic failure is regarded as the most significant. Generally, the majority of diagnostic failures are attributed to the clinicians directly involved with the patient, and to a lesser extent, the system in which they work. In turn, the majority of errors made by clinicians are due to decision making failures manifested by various departures from rationality. Of all the medical environments in which patients are seen and diagnosed, the emergency department is the most challenging. It has been described as a "wicked" environment where illness and disease may range from minor ailments and complaints to severe, life-threatening disorders. The Cognitive Autopsy is a novel strategy towards understanding medical error and diagnostic failure in 42 clinical cases with which the author was directly involved or became aware of at the time. Essentially, it describes a cognitive approach towards root cause analysis of medical adverse events or near misses. Whereas root cause analysis typically focuses on the observable and measurable aspects of adverse events, the cognitive autopsy attempts to identify covert cognitive processes that may have contributed to outcomes. In this clinical setting, no cognitive process is directly observable but must be inferred from the behavior of the individual clinician. The book illustrates unequivocally that chief among these cognitive processes are cognitive biases and other flaws in decision making, rather than knowledge deficits.
