This small pocket book contains more than 500 clinical pearls in 12 major areas of internal medicine, collected from teaching conferences for residents at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. The pearls were selected by two residents and reviewed by senior faculty at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. The focus is on patient-oriented diagnostic problems, differential diagnoses, and shortcuts to clinical problem solving. Each pearl provides crucial medical insights passed down from expert clinicians to enhance patient care, improve diagnostic judgement, and facilitate patient workups.
References accompanying each pearl cite the supporting evidence in the medical literature.
