Manuale-Prontuario di Diagnostica e Terapia Medica – 12th Edition

Volume format 14 x 21 cm, 800 pages with numerous tables.

The twelfth edition of Manuale-Prontuario di Diagnostica e Terapia Medica is enriched with new topics, expanding the range of conditions that every internist must know in order to refine diagnostic skills. Among the newly addressed and increasingly relevant topics are: Dengue, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Gastrointestinal Bleeding, Cervical Pain and Acute Infectious Gastroenteritis.

Furthermore, fundamental chapters such as those dedicated to heart failure and diabetes mellitus have been thoroughly updated, in line with the latest therapeutic innovations and the introduction of new drugs that are reshaping treatment paradigms.

The volume remains faithful to its mission: offering a rigorous yet practical diagnostic and therapeutic approach designed to meet the real needs of physicians. This means providing solid diagnostic tools that combine clinical semiology with instrument-based methods that are realistically accessible. The goal is to minimize the risk of underestimating severe diseases, often hidden behind apparently trivial signs or symptoms that only thorough knowledge can uncover.

On the therapeutic side, the manual stands out for its approach firmly anchored in the scientific method, rejecting any unvalidated therapies that may circulate in non-accredited environments or online. The selection of therapeutic options is based exclusively on international guidelines, ensuring a solid and reliable foundation for the reader.

The work also offers an in-depth discussion of hospital-based therapies, designed to support physicians working in complex clinical settings.

Ultimately, this twelfth edition represents an indispensable resource for general practitioners and internists: a tool for rapid consultation and, at the same time, a rigorous and up-to-date guide to facing the daily challenges of medical practice.
