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.
