Description
An easy-to-use guide to the management of common medical emergencies; this book is an essential for all junior doctors or clinical students. Emergencies nearly always present first to the junior doctor, either as a result of direct observation on the ward, or a phone call from nursing staff when on call. The key to their management is timely recognition and intervention. This book gives the junior doctor and senior medical student the confidence to do this. The text covers emergencies from both a problem-based and disease-based approach, with the book being divided into two sections – presentations and diseases.
Reviews
Editorial Reviews: Review “…this informative text is written for junior doctors and medical students, but is an ideal companion for nursing students and nurses working in emergency departments…The text covers all the basics of emergency situations, from presentations and observations to clinical biochemistry.
