Medicina Ambulatoriale

Volumes with minor imperfections (cover), interior intact – “Last copy”.

This new edition of the Manuale di Medicina Ambulatoriale was published during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, which imposed a dramatic burden on physicians and healthcare professionals. Updates on COVID-19 were included up to the time of printing, although new information continues to emerge daily. Compared with the previous edition, this volume contains numerous updates and additions.

In addition to COVID-19, new sections address prophylaxis and diagnosis of the most common neoplastic diseases, while therapy is intentionally omitted as it falls under multidisciplinary specialist care. Additional conditions have also been included, such as coeliac disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, acute adrenal insufficiency and others.

Purpose of the Volume

Outpatient medicine is a discipline in which physicians often work independently, without the support of a medical team, making rapid decisions and assuming full professional responsibility.

This responsibility involves not only clinical competence and adherence to validated protocols, but also knowledge of regulatory frameworks, which are often not extensively covered during university training or hospital residency.

This volume aims to provide regulatory tools, clinical guidance and practical advice: instructions on prescriptions, services, exemptions and certifications, along with a comprehensive outpatient handbook including diagnostic and therapeutic schemes based on internationally accepted treatment protocols.

A practical support for a demanding and highly responsible medical profession.
