Differential Diagnoses and Presenting Complaints
DDx Checklists
The goal of these differential diagnosis checklists is to reduce the most common cause of missing a diagnosis, the failure to consider it in the first place. The diagnoses are listed in approximate order of decreasing prevalence (most common diseases at the top). This ordering is based on limited published data and the authors' experience. Unless otherwise specified, the checklists address complaints by adults rather than children. In the future the lists will indicate "must not miss" and "commonly missed" entries. See literature by John Ely and others for more information[1][2][3]
