- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

- Definition
-
subset of polyarteritis nodosa. non necrotizing but P-ANCA positive and diagnosed with biopsy of skin, muscle, or nerve evidence of small vessel arteritis. glomerulitis and pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage occur but antibodies to GBM negative. treatment with prednisone, cytoxan, or azathioprin is effective. plasmapheresisc for more severe cases if P-ANCA positive. Some overlap with SLE and PAN and much constitutional symptoms. Skin and eyes are involved often as well as Mononeuritis multiplex.
