Book Description

Publication Date: November 2003 | ISBN-10: 0974025704 | ISBN-13: 978-0974025704 | Edition: 1

A concise, color coded, systems based review of Emergency Medicine. Light and easily carried in the white coat pocket, it is a board review and clinical reference. It allows any level of EM clinician to identify a chief complaint, put it into a system, consider the differential diagnoses, and come up with a logical diagnostic and treatment plan. And since the same book you study from is the one you carry at work, you'll know where to find the information and be able to quickly and easily reference it.

Hello! I have just recently got hold of this fabulous, colorful small booklet and i love it!
I have quit a few emergency med. pocketbooks by now (Tintinally (worst, b-t-w), all Oxford books (decent), EM from PocketBook series and ERpocketbook.com issue) - but this one is the best!
It is by virtue of one important fact that Dr. Jensen got right - make it short yet detailed, point-of-care and truly only facts that matter. You have to do your homework, you should have read the textbook before, pocketbook truly is just quick pocket-size reminder; no place for long sentences, concepts, just facts - and that what this little gem is - and a lot of facts, from pato-physiology to pharmacology to DDx's to dzs - and with not too much of abbrevations.
JUST GET IT, BEST VALUE, full 5 of 5!
