Decision Making in Gastroenterology by
We are excited to present this first edition of “Decision-Making in Gastroenterology”. This new book delves into several important topics in gastroenterology and presents them in the form of a flowchart followed by accompanying text. Flowcharts offer many advantages for medical decision-making, whether it is related to the diagnosis of an underlying etiology of a clinical presentation, or to the management of a specific disorder. The visual demonstration of the flowchart can present complex, multi-step information in a clear and organized manner, making it easier to understand the sequence of steps involved in decision-making. Flowcharts also offer a standardized approach to the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal conditions, reducing errors and oversights in decision-making. The accompanying text is divided into paragraphs that correlate with decision points to clarify the specific steps in the medical decision pathway, and to supplement the flowchart with important caveats and considerations.
We acknowledge that the diagnosis and management of many gastrointestinal conditions do not conform to a universal approach that can be summarized in a flowchart. The diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal disorders can be complex and should be managed on a case-by-case basis, relying on a physician’s experience, patient’s preference, and the availability of diagnostic tests and treatment options. In this book, we aim to present an overall framework to provide practical and evidence-based strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of common gastrointestinal disorders. We hope that readers find this book useful in their studies and in clinical practice, and we encourage them to reach out to the authors or to the publisher with any feedback.
