Description

Pocket Emergency Medicine presents the essential and commonly encountered medical emergencies in a concise manner, providing only the information required immediately and with no superfluous content. This quick-reference guide zeroes in on the most common clinical emergencies - the breathless patient, hypotension/falling blood pressure, disordered consciousness, metabolic emergencies, poisoning, low urine output, acute chest pain, the acute abdomen, the agitated patient, and advanced life support - to supply critical information when it is most needed. Including tabbed subsections for easy navigation of the key presentations, with emergency drug doses, relevant scoring systems (e.g. Wells score), ALS algorithms, and helpful graphs and tables, Pocket Emergency Medicine is the perfect aid for the on-call medical student and junior doctor.
