Acute medicine

de David Sprigings, J. B. Chambers, Errol R. Norwitz

"The Third Edition of this book continues to provide a guide to acute medicine for the junior physician and casualty officer. It offers detailed guidance on what to do when faced with medical emergencies 'on take', on the ward, or in the A&E Department, and includes a step-by-step guide to the nine most important practical procedures." "In this edition, the authors have revised all chapters in line with current evidence and guidelines, and have added new chapters on the critically ill patient, acute diarrhoea, abdominal pain, electrolyte imbalances and acid-base disorders. The layout has been improved to make key information even more accessible."--BOOK JACKET.
