Too often, patients will tell their first provider one thing and their second provider another. Even when asked the exact same question, patients' stories can inexplicably change. Clinicians can save time, effort, and cost by parsing out conflicting patient histories with a specific and detailed line of questioning.

Unpacking these scenarios challenges clinicians to look beyond the obvious and recognize atypical presentations. Each scenario dissects then discusses the history and other pertinent patient information to illuminate subtle differences in the process of information gathering. With this breakdown, the clinician can then identify if the patient has an acute cardiovascular issue. Each chapter ends with a sample of 'how to present the patient' to an MD or peer and describes common pitfalls and assumptions to avoid.Key Features:Focuses specifically on acute cardiovascular issues in acute care settingsReferenced by chief complaint or consult questionsTargets patient history portion of the workupExamines subtle differences between cardiac diagnosis versus noncardiac diagnosis based on how patient history is takenHighlights common errors in review of information using electronic medical records versus standard questioning.…
