A comprehensive guide detailing the scientific basis of dental adhesion, examining modern bonding agents, restorative materials, and protocols necessary for achieving long-term success in direct and indirect restorative dentistry.
A clinical review detailing key genetic syndromes common in pediatric practice, including Klinefelter, Noonan, Fragile X, and Turner Syndromes. The guide covers clinical features, mode of inheritance, associated risks (malignancies, comorbidities), laboratory findings, and treatment options.
A self-assessment and continuing education review material focusing on pediatric clinical scenarios. This specific section addresses the evaluation and multidisciplinary management of failure to thrive (FTT) in toddlers, emphasizing the critical role of occupational therapy assessment for dysfunctional feeding practices.
This document reviews the World Health Organization (WHO) 2012 guidelines for the Active Management of the Third Stage of Labour (AMTSL). It outlines key recommendations, emphasizing that the use of uterotonics (specifically Oxytocin) is recommended for all births to prevent postpartum haemorrhage (PPH). It evaluates the role of Controlled Cord Traction (CCT), suggesting its use depends on the availability of skilled attendants and its effectiveness primarily in reducing the duration of the third stage, not necessarily blood loss compared to uterotonics alone. Postpartum abdominal uterine tonus assessment is also recommended.
A comprehensive set of bedside clinical guidelines focused on the acute management of pediatric patients, covering critical care, anaesthetics, respiratory diseases (e.g., Asthma, Bronchiolitis, Croup), and emergency protocols like APLS.
A summary of the Definition and Classification Subcommittee's work for the 2007 International Dry Eye Workshop (DEWS). It provides an updated, multifactorial definition of dry eye disease, incorporating tear hyperosmolarity and inflammation, and introduces a three-part classification system based on etiology, mechanisms, and disease severity.
A comprehensive textbook detailing the procedures and techniques for performing a physical examination of the musculoskeletal system, suitable for students and practitioners in rehabilitation medicine, orthopedics, and physical therapy.
A compact, visually oriented reference guide (Mini Atlas) designed to aid medical students in understanding and reviewing key biochemical concepts and pathways.
A guide to the traditional Chinese medicine technique of Gua Sha (scraping massage). It details how to identify signs of body toxins ('Sha'), the sources of these toxins, and provides specific instructions, tools, steps, and location mapping (acupoints, reflection areas) for performing Gua Sha on different parts of the body to promote prevention and treatment.
A clinical companion providing step-by-step, concise procedural guides focused heavily on point-of-care and ultrasound-guided procedures essential for emergency, urgent, and primary care settings. It is designed for busy frontline clinicians, covering the newest trends for students, novice advanced practice providers, and experienced practitioners.
An overview of status epilepticus (SE), a life-threatening neurologic emergency. It covers the definition (prolonged seizures >5-10 minutes), pathophysiology, diagnostic evaluation (including EEG monitoring), and rapid treatment protocols, focusing on initial administration of benzodiazepines and management of refractory SE, particularly in critical care and emergency settings.
