The general practitioner is required to make hundreds of decisions
every day and each must be tailored to the specific needs of the
individual patient.
This first book on decision making in general practice is an invaluable reference for all concerned with providing quality care. Using over 200 real life cases, it analyses the difficulties arising in:
Diagnosis, investigation, management, follow up, outcome, prevention, practice organization.
A body of rules that can be applied to these wide ranging issues provides a framework to improve decision making skills in ways that are ethical, cost-effective, safe, and acceptable for GPs, trainees, trainers and medical students. Here is an essential guide to understanding this critical element of general practice.
