About this title

Synopsis

A practical, point-of-care companion for the wards―backed by Harrison’s trusted expertise 

Harrison's Guide to Inpatient Medicine: Common Internal Medicine Diseases and Workups bridges the gap between dense medical school textbooks and quick-reference pocket guides, providing a structure to help medical students, interns, and residents navigate the transition from the classroom to the bedside with practical inpatient protocols for the wards. Each highly templated symptom- or condition-based chapter guides the reader through the gathering of the patient history, performing the physical exam, arriving at a differential diagnosis, deciding which tests to order, formulating and adjusting a treatment plan, and anticipating complications. 

Key points, clinical vignettes, and guiding questions are highlighted within the chapters so that medical students, interns, and residents can apply their knowledge to real-world cases and build confidence on the wards. 

This book offers:

•   Coverage dedicated to the most common symptoms, diseases, and topics in hospital-based internal medicine, allowing clinicians to quickly find answers and apply evidence-based management on the wards
•   High-yield key points at the start of every chapter for quick reference
•   Clinical scenarios frequently encountered during inpatient management, such as chest x-rays, ECGs, and more
•   References to chapters from Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine for more in-depth coverage on any given topic when needed  
•   Practical point-of-care features combined with illustrative clinical vignettes and guiding questions
•   Full-color clinical diagrams, images, and tables
•   Disease-specific admitting orders to streamline initial management and built-in discharge planning guidance to support safe, efficient transitions of care
•   Short summaries of landmark trials that medical students and residents would be expected to know on rounds
•   Trust and authority―all chapters have been reviewed by the world-renowned editors of Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine 


Harrison's Guide to Inpatient Medicine: Common Internal Medicine Diseases and Workups is an essential resource for medical students, interns, residents, hospitalists, and all clinicians seeking a smarter, faster, and more confident approach to inpatient management.
