ABC om Svaghet på akuten

Sandén, Jens and Dryver, Eric LU (2020) In Läkartidningen 117.
Abstract

When assessing patients presenting with weakness to the emergency department, the initial focus is on determining whether patients are suffering from conditions where prompt treatment decreases morbidity and mortality.  Diagnosis is based on an understanding of neuroanatomy and on pattern recognition.  A structured history, combined with selected physical examinations and bedside tests, are used to formulate hypotheses regarding the anatomical location and nature of the underlying pathology.
