Core Clinical Cases in Obstetrics and Gynaecology

2011-10-02T21:26:00.000-07:00

Core Clinical Cases in Obstetrics and Gynaecology

You've read your textbook and your course notes. Now you need to apply your knowledge to real life clinical situations.

The problem-solving approach of Core Clinical Cases guides you to think of the patient as a whole, rather than as a sequence of unconnected symptoms. With its emphasis on everyday practice strongly linked to underlying theory, the series integrates your knowledge with the realities of managing clinical problems, and provides a basis for developing sound analytical and confident decision-making skills.

The core areas of undergraduate study are covered in a logical sequence of learning activities: the same questions are asked of each clinical case, followed by detailed explanatory answers. Related OSCE counselling cases, with related questions and answers, also feature in each section.

Concise Pathology

Parakrama Chandrasoma

This text is to the point going through all the essentials in a highly organized manner. Though it says "concise" this is not a review or a slimmed down version of a larger textbook - bear in mind that it weighs in at over 1,000 pages. But it's still compact enough to bring along on the bus or subway - something you would never do with Robbin's or Rubins. It's a shame that the latest ed is from '98 - if that wasn't the case I'd have no problem relying solely on this for pathology class. Now I back-up with Basic Robbin's. I have no idea why Lange stopped updating this marvelous book; it's one of the best educational texts I've yet to come across. Oh, and the illustrations are fantastic: simplistic, yes, but they deliver a crystal clear message. Paired with the captions it makes for an excellent quick review just skimming them. I'll keep this one forever.

PreTest Series

Each question in PreTest® Self-Assessment and Review, Ninth Edition, is accompanied by an answer, a paragraph explanation, and a specific page reference to either a current journal article, a textbook, or both. A bibliography, which lists all the sources used in the book, follows the last chapter.
Perhaps the most effective way to use this book is to allow yourself one
minute to answer each question in a given chapter; as you proceed, indicate your answer beside each question. By following this suggestion, you will be approximating the time limits imposed by the board examinations. When you have finished answering the questions in a chapter, you should then spend as much time as you need verifying your answers and carefully reading the explanations.

Color Atlas of Pharmacology, 2nd edition

Color Atlas of Pharmacology
2nd edition

The present second edition of the Color Atlas of Pharmacology goes to print six years after the first edition. Numerous revisions were needed, highlighting the dramatic continuing progress in the drug sciences and Pharmacology. In particular, it appeared necessary to include novel therapeutic principles, such as the inhibitors of platelet aggregation from the group of integrin GPIIB/IIIA antagonists, the inhibitors of viral protease, or the non-nucleoside inhibitors of reverse transcriptase. Moreover, the re-evaluation and expanded use of conventional drugs, e.g., in congestive heart failure, bronchial asthma, or rheumatoid arthritis, had to be addressed. In each instance, the primary emphasis was placed on essential sites of action and basic pharmacological principles. Details and individual drug properties were deliberately omitted in the interest of making drug action more transparent and affording an overview of the pharmacological basis of drug therapy.

Infectious Diseases A Clinical Short Course, Second Edition

Infectious Diseases
A Clinical Short Course, Second Edition

Frederick S. Southwick

This is the second edition of a textbook envisioned as
a 30-day tutorial designed to provide a solid grounding
in the principles of clinical infectious diseases.
The title has been changed from infectious Diseases in
30 Days to Infectious Diseases: A Clinical Short Course; however the design and intention of our book has not changed. As our title emphasizes we have created a concise overview of this important field that will allow the busy physician, medical student, nurse
practioner, and physician assistant to understand,
diagnose and treat common infectious diseases. Mastering the field of infectious diseases seems daunting, and many textbooks in the field are over a thousand pages in length. Our goal has been to make this task easier and more enjoyable. By indicating the number of days that should be allotted to the study of each chapter, we have a created a schedule for completion of each lesson. By taking one small step at a time, a seemingly difficult task can be more readily achieved. The book has been shortened to make completion within 30 days feasible. This has been made possible by creating a wide array of tables that summarize the methods of clinical assessment, antiinfective agent doses, and drug toxicities; facts that do not require memorization, but do need to be referred to when caring for patients.

Medical Microbiology and Infection at a Glance
Stephen Gillespie & Kathleen Bamford

This hook is written for medical students and doctors whoare seeking a brief summary of microbiology and infectious diseases. It should prove useful to those embarking on acourse of study and assist those preparing for professional examinations.
Chapters are divided into concepts. the main humanpathogens and the infectious syndromes. This broadly reflects the pattern of teaching in many medical schools.

Microbiology is a rapidly growing and changing subject: new organisms are constantly being identified andour understanding of the pathogenic potential of re-cognized pathogens is being expanded. In addition the taxonomists keep changing the names of familiar friends to add to the confusion. Despite this, there are clear fundamental facts and principles that form a firm foundation of knowledge on which to build throughout a professional career. It is these that this book strives to encapsulate.
Each chapter contains a diagram which illustrates core knowledge. The associated text offers further insights anddetails where necessary.
Irrespective of a doctors specialty. diligent study of microbiology provides the basis for sound professional judgement. giving the clinician confidence and benefiting patients for years to come.

Clinical Physiology and Pharmacology The Essentials

Clinical Physiology and Pharmacology
The Essentials

Farideh Javid
Janice McCurrie

Clinical Physiology and Pharmacology is written primarily for undergraduate students studying modules in physiology and pharmacology as part of a degree in science, pharmacy, pharmacology, preclinical medicine or other health-related courses. One of the challenges in studying physiology and clinical pharmacology is the very large number of facts and ideas that must be remembered; this factual load can seem daunting. To understand how drugs produce their therapeutic effect, it is essential to have knowledge and understanding of both the physiological mechanisms which underpin pharmacology and the mechanisms of action of drugs currently being used. In addition the innovations of the pharmaceutical industry ensure that the extensive list of medical therapeutic drugs to be considered continues to increase each year.

This is a great book containing case studies useful in both pharmacology & physiology. It is a clinical case based self-study questions books which comes with well written answers to all the questions.
