It covers both inpatient and outpatient approaches with the same front-lines practicality as the world-famous Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics. The book contains separate symptom-oriented and disease-oriented sections and covers a wide range of acute and chronic problems, including irritable bowel syndrome, acute liver disease, cirrhosis, and pancreatic disorders. A chapter on gastrointestinal procedures is included.
