When a patient arrives in crisis, knowing the disease is only the beginning. The real challenge is deciding what to recognize first, what to do now, what cannot wait, when to reassess, and where the patient should go next.
The Emergency Medicine Decision Handbook is a practical clinical reference built around those critical moments. Instead of treating emergency medicine as a collection of isolated diagnoses, it follows the clinician’s decision-making journey from first assessment and triage through stabilization, evidence-based treatment, reassessment, escalation, and appropriate patient disposition.
Think Clearly. Act Decisively. Reassess Continuously.The book uses a practical framework:
Recognize → Prioritize → Stabilize → Diagnose → Treat → Reassess → Escalate → Disposition
Inside, readers will find practical guidance for:
- Rapid assessment, triage, ABCDE stabilization, and resuscitation
- Chest pain, dyspnea, shock, altered mental status, abdominal pain, headache, and other high-risk presentations
- Stroke, sepsis, trauma, toxicology, cardiac, respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal, endocrine, metabolic, and hematologic emergencies
- Pediatric, geriatric, pregnancy-related, and behavioral health emergencies
- Differential diagnosis, red flags, cognitive pitfalls, and clinical reasoning under pressure
- Evidence-based treatment, reassessment, escalation, consultation, and emergency procedures
- Observation, admission, ICU care, transfer, discharge, and other disposition decisions
- Clinical algorithms, decision pathways, cases, tables, checklists, and rapid-reference tools
Designed for emergency medicine residents, physicians, medical students, physician assistants/associates, nurse practitioners, emergency and acute-care nurses, paramedics, and other healthcare professionals, this handbook is built for both focused learning and practical clinical reference. Its chapter structure is designed to let readers study a problem in depth or quickly locate the red flags, immediate priorities, treatment considerations, and disposition questions that matter at the bedside.
Because emergency medicine is not only about knowing what the diagnosis is.
It is about knowing what needs to happen next—and recognizing when the next decision may change everything.
Use this handbook to navigate those decisions with greater structure, clarity, and clinical confidence.
