Book Reviews of Pocket Emergency Medicine (Pocket Notebook Series)
Book Review: EASILY the best ER handbook
Summary: 5 Stars
Arranged by chief complaint, with instant access to the most pertinent information on workup and treatment.
There really is no comparable book in existence. I saw a recent review comparing it to 'Pocket Medicine'? There's no comparison. If you have a patient with chest pain, this book puts all the possible diagnoses in one section with the labs/imaging/physical exam tips that you need to decide which one is most likely...followed by the treatment. With 'Pocket Medicine' you'd have to jump from ACS, to PE, to esophageal spasm, to AAA, to tamponade, and on and on. You better not forget any possible causes because it's not arranged by complaint but by body system (like all internal medicine guides)
I had to write a review because I don't want medical students, interns, or residents thinking the 'Pocket Medicine' will help you in the ER.
'Pocket Medicine' is for internists or your internal medicine rotations.
'Pocket Emergency Medicine' is the ONLY handbook to carry in the ER.
