The risk of litigation against clinicians is increasing significantly. Those working in primary care, and whom are often dealing with uncertainty, are at particular risk. This book groups together a series of useful articles on diagnoses that may be easily missed at first presentation in primary care, and which may give rise to clinical negligence claims. The spectrum of conditions which are commonly encountered in claims such as pulmonary embolism, acute leg ischaemia, ectopic pregnancy, inflammatory bowel disease, appendicitis and achilles tendon rupture. All articles describe data to support the assertion that the conditions are often overlooked in primary care and that failure to recognise the diagnosis may have serious implications for the patient.
