Emergency Medicine Manual

i had to pay an extra price at post - office when i recevid this item. the book is very good

This book is a great portable version for anyone who is starting off in the ER.

This a handy book for a quick review, but is not very indepth. I have used it a good bit in the ED, but still rely on other references as well. The book is well written, size is good and has a few illustrations.

As a fourth year medical student, I carried this handy guide around with me during my EM clerkships. I found it to be extremely valuable as a quick reference before seeing a patient and as well as afterwards when I came up with my differential diagnosis and plan. The book seems to carry just the right amount of information. It contains enough to cover everything for reading during your downtime, but it's concise enough to quickly answer your diagnosis or treatment quiestions. More than once, I've been able to greatly improve my understanding of my patient before I presented to the attending MD. I even caught my fellow students and the first-year residents stealing my book for their own patients while I was seeing someone else! All in all, I highly recommend this to any resident or student on their EM rotation.

I purchased this for a CEN review. I have been an ED nurse for nine years and know alot but you never remember everything. This is a quick and simple resource for any ED nurse.
