Description

This volume is the first in a growing series of titles that provide the practitioner with a value-added product based on the Clinical Practice Guidelines entitled 'Unstable Angina: Diagnosis and Management' developed by the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research. This practical paperback volume provides recommendations to practicing primary care doctors, general internists, and nurse practitioners, on the evaluation and care of patients, focussing on decision-making and cost-effectiveness related to different treatments and therapies. Developed by a panel of private sector clinicians and experts, this volume presents an impartial view from several practising physicians describing how the guidelines are used in daily practice. There is also explanation of how flexibility is necessary in interpreting the guidelines, where opinions in the fields differ and how the theoretical guidelines compare to the reality of patient variability. Practical issues of managing the patient are also stressed.
