Guide to Inpatient Medicine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I used the first edition of this book during my internal medicine residency. It's a great introduction to differential diagnosis; very well-organized and high-yield for wards. It doesn't attempt to cover pathophysiology or treatment in depth but concisely covers the symptoms, tests and studies that need to be ordered and principles of treatment for most admission diagnoses. The first edition was too thick to be carried in a lab coat but this second edition is more portable. Great to skim though at morning report. Highly Recommended!

I am a third year medical student, and sometimes I have trouble with memorization, especially in stressful situations. The mneumonics in this book really work well. I would recommend this book to anyone! Dr. Saint is a genius! Plus he is a cute little devil.
Review of Guide to inpatient medicine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The best thing about this book is that it gives one a good basic introduction to the common problems encountered on a medicine rotation. For example, if I had a patient, come in with shortness of breath, I would quickly look at that section to jog my memory in case there was something in the differential that I had not considered. One of the best things is the mnemonics, this really helped me remember the lists of information. I think third year medical students starting their medicine rotation will best benefit from this book. I would recommend it be read early in the rotation as the book doesn't really cover pathophysiology or management in depth.
Review of Saint-Frances Guide to Inpatient Medicine

Excellent book! A must have on the wards. Great for residents and medical students. Outstanding differential dx's, approach to patient sections, and treatment plans. Covers all the major inpatient diagnoses and simplifies difficult concepts. Concise, easy to read, and thorough. Can read this on the way to do an admission, on the wards, and prior to morning report presentations. Superior for USMLE board examinations. Fits in pocket well.
