Y1 - 2016 N1 - T2 - Cardiology Clinical Questions, 2e AB - After years of cardiology consultations, Dr. John P. Higgins realized that many of the same questions were constantly raised, yet the answers were changing as new medical research accrued. He also noted that many students, residents, fellows, and attending physicians had difficulties translating the up-to-date knowledge into practical diagnostic solutions. The truly useful data, while not inaccessible, was tucked away deep in many papers and research reports. In addition, many of the guidelines, books, or software available to assist diagnosis were topic-driven rather than the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) format as followed in this text. The vision for the book was to change the approach to diagnosis problem solving by using a simple tool that organized, synthesized, and hence provided a comprehensive epiphany in the form of a point-of-care tool.
