In its Seventh Edition, this acclaimed Clinical Chemistry continues to be the most student-friendly clinical chemistry text available. This edition not only covers the how of clinical testing but also places greater emphasis on the what, why, and when in order to help today's students fully understand the implications of the information covered, as well as the applicability of this crucial topic in practice. With clear explanations that strike just the right balance of analytic principles, techniques, and correlation of results with disease states, this edition has been fully updated with the latest information to help keep today's students at the forefront of today's science. New case studies, practice questions, and exercises provide ample opportunities to review and apply the topics covered through the text.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
More than 500 cards deliver concise, but complete coverage of the major disciplines on the Board of Certification’s content outline and practice today.
Expert treatment of the theory, concepts, correlations, and application of clinical laboratory science . . . Clinical Chemistry melds the basics of laboratory medicine in chemistry, physiology, and pathology with an emphasis on the concepts of clinical chemistry, the mechanisms of diseases, and the correlation of laboratory data. The scope of the text is broad, extending traditional boundaries to include immunology and endocrinology. It includes analytes, pathophysiology, methodology, clinical correlations/lab diagnosis, and concept applications, making the content widely applicable for discussions of special populations and assessments. Chapters illustrating laboratory safety, calculations, and resources; quality assurance; automation; and spectrophotometry will help students transition to the clinical laboratory work environment. The reader-friendly design provides an inclusive discussion of the principles of procedures, as well as parallels the curriculum published by the American Society of Clinical Laboratory Scientists. A wealth of pedagogical features, including chapter outlines, end-of-chapter reviews, and concept application, make this a complete core text.
This resource provides laboratory managers and practitioners with detailed information on achieving cost-effective utilization of laboratory resources and enhancing diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making. Clinical chapters are organized by body system for ease of reference. Each disorder is discussed in terms of etiology, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations/syndrome, diagnostic testing strategies, and treatment with effects on laboratory results. "Success stories" and case studies illustrate each chapter's content. Abundant flow charts, tables, and algorithms clarify tests' selection, use, interpretation, and value.
Written in a concise, readable style, the Fourth Edition of this leadi ng text continues to set the standard in the constantly evolving field of clinical chemistry. Completely revised and updated, this text refl ects the latest developments in clinical chemistry. Recent advances in quality assurance, PCR and laboratory automation receive full coverag e. The immunochemistry chapter has been expanded to reflect the latest technological advances, and two entirely new chapters on cardiac func tion and point of care testing have been added. Chapters have been com bined and restructured to match the changes that have occurred in the clinical laboratory. Plus, the contributors continue to be the leaders in the field of clinical chemistry. Other text features include outli nes, objectives, case studies, practice questions and exercises, a glo ssary and more.
