Title: [Ermergency diagnostics and therapeutic management of acute dyspnea]. Author: Hüfner A, Dodt C. Journal: Med Klin Intensivmed Notfmed; 2015 Oct; 110(7):555-66; quiz 567-8. PubMed ID: 26407960. Abstract: This article presents the relevant diagnostic examinations and principles for the initial management of acute dyspnea in detail. The emergency physician must work through broad differential diagnostic considerations while providing appropriate initial treatment for a potentially life-threatening disease. The airway, breathing and circulation are the primary focus for the emergency physician when beginning emergency management. As soon as these are stabilized, further clinical investigations and treatment can be continued. The appropriate place for further treatment is determined by risk stratification.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
