Product Description

Review

"This faithful companion to medical students and doctors alike has evolved into its fifth edition. As always it remains reliably concise, informative and easy to use....It doesn't excel itself as a textbook of medicine, but I think it is one of the best guides as to how to practice medicine as a junior doctor."Northwing (University of Sheffield Medical School Gazette)
"Overall I can recommend the Oxford handbook of Clinical Medicine to anyone who anticipates attending a ward round or clinic."Northwing (University of Sheffield Medical School Gazette)


Product Description

Major revision! Here is the fifth edition of the definitive, best-selling Handbook of medicine in the world. But not just a new edition: the authorship has evolved, and the structure of the book has been revised for the first time since first publication, making this the most comprehensive revision of this core text to date. The text has been rewritten and revised taking into account extensive market research among medical students and junior doctors. Expanded emergency section! The emergency section has been significantly extended to meet the needs of first-line junior doctors. It is still banded in red for immediate access. New topics include: Headaches; Chest pain; Breathlessness; Anaphylactic shock; Broad, complex tachycardia; Narrow, complex tachycardia; Myocardial infarction/thrombolysis; Tension pneumothorax; Pneumonia; Cerebral abscess; Acute renal failure; GI bleeding and more! New features! There is a new section on practical procedures, and a new section of plates showing important X-ray images. Completely up to date! The text has been brought up to date with many changes on every page. The text is based on good clinical evidence, taking into account new guidelines and information from the UK Centre for Clinical Excellence, where appropriate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, clinically emphasized handbook, 23 Nov 2001
The medical equivalent of the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook.
Excellent lay out - well organized.
Good clinical approach to most medical problems. If you're able to make a tentative diagnosis this book will guide you the rest of the way through the process; Diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, lab. tests to perform, treatment, prognosis and pitfalls. It doesn't provide exhaustive information on all medical issues but it'll most certainly get you and your patients through the shift in one piece.
Don't leave home without it!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, 30 Nov 2004
By J. Elias "joheli" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
No fuss about details you don't need to know about when dealing with patients on a day-to-day basis, yet providing enough insight to make therapeutical decisions for junior staff. And the best of it: it fits into the pocket o every labcoat.
