Editorial Reviews for An Introduction to Clinical Emergency Medicine: Guide for Practitioners in the Emergency Department
|
Winner of the 2006 AMWA Book Awards Physicians Category, An Introduction to Clinical Emergency Medicine is a much-needed resource for individuals practicing in this challenging field. It takes a novel approach, describing in detail the best and most current methods including initial patient evaluation, generation of differential diagnoses, problem-solving and management of challenging conditions based on presenting symptoms. Unlike other textbooks, in which the diagnosis is known, this textbook approaches clinical problems as clinicians approach patients - without full knowledge of the final diagnosis. It provides an understanding of how to approach patients with undifferentiated conditions, ask the right questions, gather historical data, utilize physical examination skills and order and interpret laboratory and radiographic tests. It provides current management and disposition strategies with controversies presented, including pearls and summary points for each topic covered. The book is multi-author, each contributor chosen because of a track record in teaching as well as being internationally recognised experts in the specialty.

Summary: great reference

Summary: Strong Work
Comment:
I have found this work an excellent introduction to emergency medicine, and should be first reading for any new student interested in Emergency Medicine. Dr. Madhaddevan and Dr. Garmel should be applauded for this work. Strong work Gus and Maha.

Summary: Awesome EM Book
Comment: This book is concise enough to actually be readable. It is, in my opinion better than Tintanelli because it is more straight forward and you don't need to have 2 Vol. with you at all times. Overall a great buy.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for EM students
Comment: As a fourth year med student interested in EM, this is a great text. You can't finish it over one rotation at over 700 pages. But if you're taking 2-3 rotations with externships, this is a great text plod through.
I'm only about halfway through, but I like to read a chapter and then review the material in Secrets or Pocket Emergency Medicine, sometimes adding to the latter (in VERY small print) from the great material in this book.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Images
Comment: This book is great and I love the pictures. I am studying for my 10-year recertification and have looked at quite a few of the other books out there, and this book wins, hands-down. The chapters are well-written and the illustrations are great.
