Die Psychopathologie beschreibt und ordnet krankhaft veränderte psychische Funktionen und Eigenschaften. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Darstellung der Symptome, – der subjektiven Erscheinungen, objektiven Leistungen und körperlichen Begleit- und Folgeerscheinungen psychischer Störungen. Darüber hinaus werden psychische Syndrome und Krankheitsbilder beschrieben. Denn erst das richtige Erkennen und Benennen eines Symptoms erlaubt die korrekte Diagnosestellung. Die "Psychopathologie", nun in einer überarbeiteten und aktualisierten Neuauflage, gibt dazu den Schlüssel in die Hand: Nach Funktionsbereichen gegliedert (Bewusstsein, Denken, Gefühle, Aufmerksamkeit etc.) werden Symptome psychischer Störungen und Syndrome, deren Vorkommen und entsprechende Untersuchungsmethoden vorgestellt. Mit praktischen Zusammenfassungen und 70 anschaulichen Abbildungen. – Psychopathologie: Symptome verstehen, Symptome erkennen.

UPDATED AND CORRECTED IN AUGUST 2019. In an already busy GP registrar year with e-Portfolio updates, tutorials, VTS away days, home visits, and the daily rigmarole of clinics, there is perhaps not enough time to revise the whole of medicine, surgery and the specialities (ENT, Ophthalmology, gynaecology, paeds etc.) that would give you confidence to face the exams. For this reason we wrote this book with the GP registrar in mind. It includes over 120 common symptoms that patients present with and those that may come up in the RCGP CSA exams. For each symptom a comprehensive consultation framework has been included to guide you through the best approach in dealing with the complaint. This CSA book includes guidance such as what questions to ask, eliciting relevant past medical history, social history etc. The CSA framework then guides you to which examinations would be relevant and what investigations should be requested in your CSA exam. The final part of each chapter advises about possible differential diagnoses and evidence based ways of managing these. We have also included in this book simple explanation briefs that you can use to explain the pertinent diagnoses to the patient in a jargon free manner. This book has been specifically written to save you hours of time researching before your examinations and hopefully will become your core companion to ease you through the CSA exams and into your future as a fully fledged General Practitioner. We hope that you find this book a useful aid to excel in the CSA exams and continue to use it well into your independent GP years!

Life would be much simpler for GPs if patients presented with diagnoses. Unfortunately, patients instead present with symptoms that are frequently vague, sometimes multiple and often obscure. Most clinical texts adopt a diagnosis rather than a symptom based approach. Across its four editions, Symptom Sorter has redressed this balance, becoming an essential reference book in primary care. Covering over 100 of the symptoms most commonly found in primary care, this latest, fully updated edition features new entries including failure to thrive and febrile children, anxiety, hip and knee pain, and mouth lumps and marks, all explored through the ‘red flags’, ‘top tips’ and ‘ready reckoner’ format for sorting symptoms that has made previous editions so popular and respected. All general practitioners, especially GP trainers, GP registrars, young principals, nurse practitioners and A&E nurses will find this book an invaluable reference. From reviews of previous editions: ‘Essential for all GPs, trainers and registrars. Great value and a superb practical book. Five stars!’ DOCTOR ‘This is the one book I would like to take into the consulting room.’ LONDON CALLING ‘If you have this book in your room, and you consult it every day, my guess is that you will do at least one thing better every day, and, maybe many more. If that is not a recommedation for a book, then I don’t know what is.’ WORK BASED LEARNING IN PRIMARY CARE ‘A classic general practice book.’ FAMILY MEDICINE ‘A very useful reference tool. Very user friendly and informative. A valuable asset for any practice library. It is one of the most well used books on my shelf.’ BEDS AND HERTS FACULTY NEWS ________________________________ Highly Commended – BMA Medical Book Awards 2004 (Second Edition) Commended – BMA Medical Book Awards 2008 (Third Edition)
