Pocket Tutor Heart Disease - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Titles in the Pocket Tutor series give practical guidance on subjects that medical students and resident doctors need help with ‘on the go’. Their highly affordable price puts them within reach of those rotating through modular courses or working on attachment.

• Common investigations (ECG, imaging)
• Clinical skills (patient examination)
• Clinical specialties that students perceive as too small to merit a textbook (psychiatry, renal medicine)

The second edition of Pocket Tutor Heart Disease reinforces important principles and improves understanding of the basic science and clinical management of coronary heart disease, from atherosclerosis to the complications of acute myocardial infarction.

Breaking down a subject that students find complex and daunting, the book presents clear images and concise, but informative text.

The content is logical and sequential, beginning with relevant basic science; followed by chapters devoted to common disorders that introduce the clinical essentials of cardiac practice.

Descriptions of common disorders are enhanced by clinical scenarios (‘Patient presents with...’), which help students and trainees recognise and manage common presenting problems.

The previous edition (9781909836327) published in 2016.
