Clinical read
Mental performance: the useful question
This page is an entry point. The full method lives on the review framework page; here, the job is to decide whether this situation changes what should stay in the differential, who should review it, and what should not be assumed.
Common questions
Questions people ask before they start.
Can performance signals diagnose the problem?
No. Performance signals can change what belongs in the differential. A responsible review still requires clinical history, symptoms, timing, medication context, risk review, and the appropriate clinician relationship.
What does the review actually give me?
A written psychiatric-medical synthesis: what appears more likely, what remains possible, what seems less likely, what needs another clinician, and what should be monitored or left alone.
Is this emergency care?
No. If symptoms are acute, dangerous, rapidly worsening, or involve possible self-harm, psychosis, mania, delirium, withdrawal, chest pain, neurologic symptoms, or medical instability, use emergency or urgent care.
