Significance of Clinical diagnoses
Clinical diagnoses encompass various medical classifications and assessments made for both physical and mental health conditions. In a clinical setting, they influence treatment approaches and the quality of life for patients with diseases, such as haematological cancer and periodontal disease. In psychiatry, clinical diagnoses are essential for identifying mental health disorders, guided by standardized evaluations like the DSM. They facilitate patient care improvements and address discrepancies between general practitioners and specialists, ensuring comprehensive understanding and management of health conditions.
