A full-color, case-based review of the essentials of pathophysiology--covering all major organs and systems The goal of this trusted text is to introduce you to clinical medicine by reviewing the pathophysiologic basis of 120 diseases (and associated signs and symptoms) commonly encountered in medical practice. The authors, all experts in their respective fields, have provided a concise review of relevant normal structure and function of each body system, followed by a description of the pathophysiologic mechanisms that underlie several common diseases related to that system. Each chapter of Pathophysiology of Disease concludes with a collection of case studies and questions designed to test your understanding of the pathophysiology of each clinical entity discussed. These case studies allow you to apply your knowledge to specific clinical situations. Detailed answers to each case study question are provided at the end of the book. This unique interweaving of physiological and pathological concepts will put you on the path toward thinking about signs and symptoms in terms of their pathophysiologic basis, giving you an understanding of the "why" behind illness and treatment. Features 120 case studies (9 new) provide an opportunity for you to test your understanding of the pathophysiology of each clinical entity discussed Checkpoint questions provide review and appear in every chapter Updates and revisions throughout this new edition reflect the latest research and developments Numerous tables and diagrams encapsulate important information Updated references for each chapter topic Pathophysiology of Disease is a true must-have resource for medical students preparing for the USMLE Step 1 exam, as well as students engaged in their clerkship studies. House officers, nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians’ assistants, and allied health practitioners will find its concise presentation and broad scope a great help in facilitating their understanding of common disease entities.

Pathophysiology Case Studies is designed to expose nursing students to disease processes in the format of clinical scenarios and essentially to allow them to "apply what they have learned." It is designed to be thought-provoking. In order to answer the questions, the students will have to use not only the available resources (i.e. textbooks), but also outside sources. The goal is to ignite the process of analytical thinking, or logical processing of the information given, to solve the problem and come to a reasonable and logical conclusion (i.e. a diagnosis or differential diagnosis). It is intended to incorporate the materials learned in class into the clinical application. All the case studies are drawn from professional experiences from the authors. Clinical vignettes are written in a format like the questions that will be asked on standardized exams. It is also a means to introduce the students to a coherent method of presenting a patient's history and physical findings. The workbook is designed to be inclusive but also acknowledge the diversity of students with respect to interests and academic/professional backgrounds. This workbook is flexible in that it can be used as an adjunct to the lectures; a mechanism to reinforce the lectured materials in the form of homework; a means to foster group dynamics by assigning case studies to groups of students where they will ultimately have to defend their conclusions; and a mechanism to enhance the students' knowledge base in understanding a disease. We also want to make it a little fun by incorporating crossword puzzle and concept maps. In the end, we hope this workbook will serve as a foundation to future nursing courses.
