A handbook that covers the complete range of acute medical conditions and problems that junior doctors are likely to encounter during the first years of training (PRHO/SHO).
This is a handbook covering the complete range of acute medical conditions and problems that junior doctors are likely to encounter during the first years of training (PRHO/SHO). The book is divided into chapters reflecting core medical specialties - including infectious diseases; STD; gastroenterology; etc. Each chapter is then subdivided into problems, such as (for example) pyrexia of unknown origin (under the Infectious Disease Group), HIV/Aids (under STD) and Vomiting and Weight Loss (under Gastroenterology). Each problem follows a standard pattern or template: it begins with a case history which is discussed under the headings of differential diagnosis, initial management, investigations, further management, treatment, and key points. Where relevant there are also sections on pathology, pathophysiology and prognosis. Important points to note in the acute context are picked out in boxes ('Remember!' And 'Information') as are vital investigations. Each chapter also ends with questions and answers. The book will be well signposted and well indexed, so that the user can locate information easily, either for reference or study.
In addition it will include self-assessment questions and answers - to serve both as a self-testing tool and as preparation for professional exams.
