A must-have book for practicing emergency physicians

Review Date: July 22, 1998

Reviewer: ,

This new edition of a classic text is essential for the busy emergency physician. Not only does it give clear instructions for performing procedures, it also provides relevant information about pathophysiology. Indication and contraindications are explained. Numerous helpful tables assist in the interpretation of test results. This book is much more than a how-to manual, and no emergency department should be without it.

An amazing reference guide.

This book lays out everything you need to know in a concise, easy to follow format. If only it wasnt so friggin gigantic. So whether you need to run to the office to brush up on a procedure you havent attempted since your second year of residency or you need something heavy to bash the hell out of a Ganglion cyst (please dont actually do that), this is a great tool.

Not only for the ED

I've purchased every edition of this invaluable resource. I do work in a busy, high-acuity ED, but also consider this if you're a family doc in a rural area where you might be called upon to perform a life saving procedure that you haven't seen since residency. Now if they'd just publish a pocket PC edition.......

Great Book for anyone interested in emergency medicine

I am an EMT working toward a degree in nursing or PA. I saw this book being used in the ER at UVA Medical Center and had to have it. It has been a great learning tool for me. I would recomend anyone practicing emergency medicine to add this book to your library.

One of the most important texts in your office

I am an attending physician in Emergency Medicine, and through residency and even today, I have used this reference more than any other. It is a must have for anyone in the field. It would be extremely helpful for anyone in primary care as well
