Excerpt from The Student's Guide to Medical Diagnosis The art of diagnosis would be readily acquired if the symptoms Of each disease were in all cases the same; but this is not so. Although therefore the rules laid down will generally sufice, yet you will occasionally meet with cases in which the accustomed signs are absent, or in which unusual symptoms are present. For instance, no complaint has more strongly marked signs than peritonitis the excessive and general pain of the abdomen, the great tenderness on pressure, the rapid, wiry pulse - and yet you may meet with fatal peritonitis with scarcely any pain, or with out tenderness, or with a pulse not above the normal standard. In order to obtain the necessary Skill in diagnosis, it will be requisite that you should practise the taking Of cases. You should record the symptoms and phy sical signs present in each case, the order in which the symptoms have been developed, the treatment adopted, the progress of the disease, and, if it terminate fatally, you should add the morbid appearances discovered after death. You will readily understand that unless some plan is adopted, there is great probability that you will either encumber your description Of the dis ease with a number Of unnecessary details, or overlook important facts. I have therefore added the following suggestions for a plan, which you may perhaps find useful until experience enables you to propose a better. Commence with the name and address of your patient, his age, and occupation. - The age is important, because many diseases, such as cancer, are chiefly found at cer tain periods of life. The nature of the occupation Often gives a clue to the complaint; as, for instance, painters and other workers in lead are especially liable to colic and paralysis.

Excerpt from The Student's Guide to Surgical Diagnosis The habit of note-taking is one which must be adopted early in life, if it is to become easy and serviceable, and the briefest note made at the time of seeing a patient is infinitely more valuable than an elaborate record penned hours or days afterwards. How to observe, is an art to be attained only by practice; but what to observe in any given case can be learnt to a certain extent from books, provided the clue to the nature of the case is given to the student. This, it is the object of the following pages to furnish so far as may be; for it must be remembered that though in surgical descriptions the symptoms are ar ranged according to their order of importance and successively, in the living patient they are more or less commingled, masking one another, and requiring care for their dis entanglement.

Excerpt from A Handbook of Medical Diagnosis for Students The ability to make an accurate and, at the same time, rapid diagnosis is, in a measure. A gin, but in much larger de gree the result of careful training and experience. Students are prone to look upon the diagnoses of their preceptors or clinical instructors as made by Intuition. But the accurate diagnosis is made as the result of observation and reasoning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Student's Guide to the Practice of Medicine IN this Edition I have endeavoured to supplement the two previous Editions by additional details on important points, and to insert an account of some diseases formerly omitted. By using smaller type I have been enabled to do this without materially increasing the size of the book or altering the original plan. I trust it is still handy and practical. I have to record my best thanks to Dr. Alexander Napier for valuable suggestions given to me, and for assisting me in seeing the work through the press.

Excerpt from Medical Diagnosis: With Special Reference to Practical Medicine; A Guide to the Knowledge and Discrimination of Diseases When, by means of the aided or unaided senses, the symptoms of the malady have been discovered, the next step towards a diag nosis is a proper appreciation of their significance and of their rela tion towards one another. Knowledge and, above all, the exercise of the reasoning faculties are now indispensable. The daily habit of investigating disease; a scrutinizing Study -of the anatomical lesions; chemistry, with its most searching analyses; the microscope, with the wonders it reveals, are all of little use, unless we have been taught the necessity of placing in connection with one'another the morbid signs they lay bare, and of considering in individual cases their respective value. Were it otherwise, the science of diagnosis would be simply a matter of memory. It is, however, this very analysis of symptoms and the lengthy process of induction attending it which make medical diagnosis so difficult. Nor is it reasoning on the ascertained facts alone that is required; the premises may be but probabilities; for, in truth, diagnosis deals at times with the logic of probabilities as much as with the logic of patent facts.
