Case Studies in Clinical Laboratory Science. Questo articolo non è disponibile.Case Studies in Clinical Laboratory Science

This unique collection of 55 multidisciplinary case studies is designed to help laboratory technologists and technicians "experience" how departments work together to help the physician make a diagnosis and determine the best course of treatment for the patient. In working through the comprehensive, real-world scenarios, readers deal firsthand with interpreting data from two, three or four disciplines (Blood Bank, Chemistry, Hematology, Immunology, Microbiology, Urinalysis), integrating the facts (laboratory data) from different departments and thinking critically about what they mean. Includes 55 cases--11 Blood Bank cases; 12 Chemistry cases; 10 Hematology/Coagulation cases; 5 Immunology/Serology cases; 10 Microbiology cases; 7 Urinalysis cases. Technicians and technologists who have been out of the field for awhile and are in the process of reentry into the profession and technicians and technologists who are looking for a general review of clinical laboratory science.

Case Studies in Clinical Laboratory Science

Unique in its approach and comprehensive in subject matter, Case Studies in Clinical Laboratory Science is the only text to present case studies from the broad spectrum of disciplines within the clinical laboratory science field. Going beyond the traditional medical model of case studies, real-life scenarios are presented that not only correlate results with disease states, but also serve as problem-solving and critical thinking exercises. A multidisciplinary approach allows one to experience how departments work together to help health professionals make a diagnosis and determine the best course for treatment.

Features Include:

• 55 Case Studies in 6 main disciplines that include relevant data from the patient's medical history and physical examination as well as laboratory results.
• 11 Blood Bank Cases
• 12 Chemistry Cases
• 10 Hematology Cases
• 5 Immunology Cases
• 10 Microbiology Cases
• 7 Urinalysis Cases
• Critical Thinking Questions presented for each case study that test analysis, synthesis and evaluation.
• References included within each case study provide sources for current up-to-date information.
