書名:Emergency management of infectious diseases 

著者:Chin, Rachel L

iPAC書目連結

Infectious disease ranks only behind trauma in the prevalence of cases seen on a daily basis in the emergency room and takes lives from every culture and socioeconomic class. The changing epidemiology of infectious diseases is a considerable challenge to any physician, as acute, nearly eradicated, and tropical diseases now enter American emergency rooms on a daily basis. This book is a new clinically oriented reference book for the management of such infections in 
the emergency room and focuses on all diagnostic protocols and treatment strategies that emergency room physicians need to be proficient when managing patients battling infectious disease. The orientation of the book is uniquely organ-based, with coverage of all viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic disease. The narrative is supplemented with explanatory photos, diagnostic tables, and charts of drug regimens and will prove an invaluable reference for physicians
confronting the various manifestations of infectious disease.

The fourth edition of Clinical Examination provides a clear, practical and above all, superbly illustrated guide to all aspects of history taking and patient examination.Designed to be accessible both to medical students just starting their clinical attachments and to more experienced readers, the clear writing style, the innovative use of clinical photographs and the explanatory illustrations combine to explain and 
clarify the concepts and skills necessary to take a history and perform an examination. The text is organised by body system, with each chapter structured the same way: firstly, underlying structure and function; secondly, signs, symptoms and abnormalities; thirdly, patient examination.

   memory on the science they studied earlier in their course 
2.The signs & symptoms sections serve as a mini-textbook of medicine by 
   highlighting most important diseases associated with each body system 
3.The history-taking and examination sections alert students to general 
  principles and particular considerations relevant to interacting with patients 
4.Eight different types of boxes classify information on key aspects of the text:
  differential diagnosis; emergency topics; examination of the elderly; questions
  to ask; areas for review; risk factors; symptoms and signs; and 'red flag' issues 
5.Nearly 1000 illustrations, including over 500 photographs of physical signs as 
  they present in real life 
6.Colour diagrams illustrate underlying structure and function as well as 
  demonstrating examination techniques 
7.Now available on Student Consult with full online access to the text and
