Details: The book “Breathe Easy: Pearls and Pitfalls in Respiratory Medicine—A Compendium of Clinical Cases” is a short selection of cases with concise clinical details summed up with relevant information in terms of imaging, spirometry, biochemical and pathological details.
It is a mash of a few, simple straightforward cases with subtle but critical details overlooked; some, difficult cases made simple by integrated approach; in part, complexities in cases dusted to clarity through logical interpretations.
This is a close analogy to the dilemma and challenges posed by young clinicians when they set out to practice clinical medicine after a decade of supervised training and mentorship.
Where the current training falters is in bridging the gap between textbook-bedside medicine and applied clinical medicine.
In the present context, clinicians often come across a regular disconnect between the theoretical knowledge to application and interpretation of this knowledge in terms of patient care. This book is an effort to bridge the gap. The emphasis is on applied clinical medicine and problem solving which is not a part of regular postgraduate medical curriculum. In modern-day medicine, diagnostics, their importance, and interpretation have largely superseded clinical medicine. Through this varied case compilation, there is a conscious effort to holistically integrate and supplant investigational medicine with clinical medicine without undermining its importance.
Highlights:
• Comprehensive coverage of structured clinical cases, spotters, and rare respiratory cases
• Each chapter has learning objectives and ends with clinical pearls to reinforce these learning points
• Specific focus on management complexities and dilemmas
• Includes clinical correlation with radiological, pathological, and spirometry interpretations using a holistic approach for a better understanding
• The indusion of flowcharts and references enhances educational value
• A handy clinical aid for pulmonologists, physicians, postgraduates, and clinicians alike Meets the curriculum requirements and can be used in university classrooms and seminars as a resource for case discussion and as a small group teaching exercise
