Summary

A best-seller in its first edition, this handbook provides a remarkable amount of coverage in a compact format. Because its a distillation of the clinical information found in the new edition of the market-leading Tintinalli Study Guide, the handbook is both convenient and authoritative. It uses tables, charts, and an outline format to summarize the key points of pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of all conditions encountered in the Emergency Department. Features new coverage of clinical protocols, fluid resuscitation, respiratory distress in children, and pelvic pain.
