Product Description

From the Back Cover

The Toxicology Handbook is the portable poisonings resource for
all emergency medicine staff -- physicians, trainees, nurses, rural and
remote GPs, and healthcare workers. This book will also be a vital resource
for paramedics, pharmacists and general practitioners, and a useful guide
to local poisons for overseas trained doctors.

This guide provides an easily followed approach to the assessment and
management of common, unusual and life-threatening poisonings. Separate
sections address envenoming problems specific to Australia, New Zealand and
the South Pacific. This easy-to-use handbook has a practical clinical
focus, contains the authors' "Handy tips" and "Common pitfalls" in the
management of common, unusual and life-threatening poisonings, and includes
specific paediatric and pregnancy considerations. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Portable and cheap answers to clinical questions 9 Nov 2006
By Corrine Balit
Format:Paperback
Great book. So far has answered all my tox managemet questions in the ER quickly and without fuss. Cuts through all those questions like "should I or should'nt I give charcoal?" or "is this an issue?" and gives confidence in providing supportive care in the majority of poisonings. Although there are chapters on Australian envenoming, practiontioners elsewhere would like the chapters on pharmaceutical and illicit drug ODs. Portable and very cheap compared to comprehensive US texts.Patient focused unlke some web or computer-based products.

Perfect handbook for accident and emergency care of toxicology patients. Well structured chapters dealing with all the common drugs, and some less common envenomations (not many snakes around here!). Fundamental principles well outlined, practical approach to the management of all poisoned patients. Will be the pocketbook for all emergency physicians, elective students, intensivists and general practitioners. The new standard in toxicology care

5.0 out of 5 stars I thought I knew about drugs 7 Nov 2006
By Koos
Format:Paperback
If you think you know all about the pharmacological effects of drugs and toxins on the body, and their management.....think again. This book will open your mind to a new level of understanding of toxicology. No longer a black cauldron of despair. Now you can actually approach the poisoned patient with an answer, using the 'risk assessment' approach to toxicology as outlined in this book, you will be able to deal with all the complex issues pertaining to overdose and envenomation
