Each chapter represents a disease state or symptom cluster and concisely summarizes the disease state, provides background, symptoms and signs, differential diagnoses, and immediate and long-term treatment options. All chapters conclude with a diagnosis or treatment algorithm or another easy-to-use visual tool. Chapters named after a specific disease state or symptom cluster, arranged alphabetically for use in the field. The text begins with chapters covering patient evaluation: getting a good history, suicide risk assessment, physical exam, and when and how to use studies. Written by experts in psychiatry and emergency medicine, this text is the first to consider both medical perspectives in a concise guide. Quick Guide to Psychiatric Emergencies is an excellent resource for psychiatrists, emergency medicine physicians, residents, nurses, and other medical professionals that handle behavioral emergencies on a regular basis.

It also provides guidelines on what to say to patients and their families, how to give them counselling, what medication to prescribe, and when to consult a specialist. In short, this volume presents the knowledge of mental health science in an easily understandable form for practitioners (both physicians and others) at the primary health care level." "Two Versions of ICD-10 Chapter V Primary Care Version (ICD-10 PC) are presented here: (1) a concise version for those with medical training and prescription responsibility; (2) a brief version for primary care staff with other medical training. The primary care versions of the mental disorders classification were designed by an international group of general practitioners, family physicians, mental health workers, public health experts, social workers, psychiatrists and psychologists with a special interest in mental health problems in primary health care providers. After two rounds of revision, the classification system was field tested in more than 40 countries by over 500 primary care physicians to assess its relevance, ease of use and reliability."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
