Emergency Medicine Manual Editorial Review: The best-selling pocket reference in emergency medicine! Condenses the essential clinical content from the premier text Emergency Medicine: A Comprehensive Study Guide. Includes color photos of dermatologic and ophthalmic conditions, pharmacologic considerations throughout, and tables of critical differential diagnoses.
Customer Reviews: Great study guide! This book is a great portable version for anyone who is starting off in the ER.
Handy book for quick reference This a handy book for a quick review, but is not very indepth. I have used it a good bit in the ED, but still rely on other references as well. The book is well written, size is good and has a few illustrations.
Excellent quick reference for EM Clerkship As a fourth year medical student, I carried this handy guide around with me during my EM clerkships. I found it to be extremely valuable as a quick reference before seeing a patient and as well as afterwards when I came up with my differential diagnosis and plan. The book seems to carry just the right amount of information. It contains enough to cover everything for reading during your downtime, but it's concise enough to quickly answer your diagnosis or treatment quiestions. More than once, I've been able to greatly improve my understanding of my patient before I presented to the attending MD. I even caught my fellow students and the first-year residents stealing my book for their own patients while I was seeing someone else! All in all, I highly recommend this to any resident or student on their EM rotation.
Handy book I purchased this book to back me up in my clinical year instead of carrying the big and great Tintinalli's "Emergency Med." I think this little version does a good job in giving a concise information on emergency medicine.
Good for rounds Great resource to have when making rounds. Didn't seem as indepth as I would like it to be in some places. Good refresher kind of book, with other resources handy for more indepth information.
