Editorial Reviews

Review

"First Aid succeeds in reviewing the basics of emergency medicine disease processes and treatments and preparing medical students for clerkship examinations by providing less than one page summaries of the most common disease processes seen in the emergency medicine field, thus allowing the student to familiarize himself with the definition, etiology or pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of each illness...Overall, I recommend First Aid for the Emergency Medicine Clerkship as a fun and potentially interactive basic review of emergency medicine topics for medical students."--Annals of Emergency Medicine (Annals of Emergency Medicine ) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
