Scope: professional education and governance analysis, not patient-specific medical, reimbursement, or legal advice. Translations of China-specific policy terms are unofficial.
Executive takeaways
- Respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, renal, haematologic, endocrine-metabolic, rheumatologic, and neurologic medicine form the core map.
- The central skill is problem representation, dangerous-diagnosis prioritisation, and evidence-based probability updating.
- Long-term care integrates medicines, lifestyle, multimorbidity, adherence, and referral.
Scope and core task
Organises history, examination, testing, imaging, differential diagnosis, chronic follow-up, and deterioration recognition into one reasoning system.
Learn mechanisms, findings, diagnosis, treatment or nursing, complications, follow-up, and patient education on one problem map rather than as isolated chapters.
Clinical reasoning pathway
Start with instability and must-not-miss threats, create a problem representation and differential, update it with targeted tests or observation, choose a plan aligned with patient goals, and define effectiveness and safety endpoints.
- Safety first: life support, red flags, and escalation.
- Explain next: mechanism, evidence, and alternatives.
- Act and reassess: treatment or nursing, handover, and follow-up.
- Communicate throughout: consent, preference, adherence, and family support.
How to use this site
This is a disciplinary map, not a patient-specific prescription. Build the system or problem framework before reading disease, procedure, and case pages. For an individual patient, use current guidelines, local pathways, and qualified professional judgement.
