5-STAR DOODY'S REVIEW RATING!
This is a quick reference to some of the most common and life-threatening conditions seen in patients who come to the emergency department that relies on pictorial representations followed by clinical presentations, diagnosis, and treatment. The aim is to provide emergency medicine practitioners with a quick reference on the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management of frequently encountered problems in the emergency department with an emphasis on the physical findings, radiographic imaging, or disease process that often leads to the diagnosis. This is a worthy goal, as visual diagnosis is key to the field of emergency medicine and providers will benefit from a concise, well-developed guide to management. The primary audience includes anyone working in the field of emergency medicine. It would be of particular interest to physicians, midlevel practitioners, residents, and students. The primary editors of this book are emergency medicine physicians and the numerous contributors are practitioners in emergency medicine, pediatric emergency medicine, or critical care who are experts in their fields. The book is divided into 15 major parts that cover a total of 342 topics. Each topic is presented in a similar fashion with a relevant clinical picture (photograph, radiograph, EKG, etc.) followed by three sections detailing the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management. These sections offer a concise summary of common and life-threatening presentations followed by how to diagnose and treat them. This book is meant to act as a quick reference for those practicing in the emergency department or for those studying for boards. This is a must-read for any provider in emergency medicine. It is filled with truly excellent graphics including photographs, radiographs, and EKGs of must-know presentations. The photographs are followed by a concise description of the patient presentation, how to make the diagnosis, and how to treat the condition. The book is well written by experts in the field and offers a wealth of information.
