Acute Abdomen During Pregnancy by Goran Augustin Pdf

This is the third edition of a well-received book that reflects the state of the art in the diagnosis and treatment of acute abdominal disorders in pregnant patients, ranging from very rare to more common ones, such as acute appendicitis and acute cholecystitis. The book emphasizes the importance of rapid diagnosis to avoid serious consequences for both the mother and the fetus. The new edition updates recommendations, guidelines, and scenarios to provide support for all clinicians who may encounter such cases. The book includes new chapters, one of which is about non-operative management of acute appendicitis in pregnancy, an important topic that has not been addressed in previous books. The 2nd edition chapter on urologic emergencies has been divided into three, and the book now has 29 chapters in total, which have been significantly updated and reorganized. It provides guidance on different imaging modalities of rare pathologies that can occur during pregnancy, helping clinicians and radiologists to define underlying cases better. The book also includes significantly more colored and black & white images and tables. This new edition is an essential resource for clinicians who care for pregnant patients with acute abdominal disorders. The volume is equally valuable for general and abdominal surgeons, gynecologists and obstetricians, and emergency physicians who may be the first specialists to have clinical contact with pregnant patients.

Cope's Early Diagnosis of the Acute Abdomen by William Silen Pdf

Unparalleled in demonstrating the art of clinical diagnosis, this classic text has been used by several generations of medical students and house staff since its original publication seventy years ago. Thoroughly revised by one of America's most distinguished gastrointestinal surgeons, it combines the enduring principles of prompt, accurate diagnosis of the acute abdomen with many fresh observations culled from Silen's own experience. Retained from Cope's original work are his emphasis on clinical diagnosis by direct examination, his highly readable style of writing, and the book's overall structure. New to this edition is a concise chapter on the acute abdomen in AIDS. In recent years there has been a misdirected emphasis on the use of invasive and non-invasive tests rather than clinical evaluation of individuals with acute abdominal pain. These tests are no substitute for an adequate history and physical examination as well as in-depth knowledge of the natural history of disease. More effectively than any other volume, this book redresses that balance, helping students and clinicians gain facility in clinical diagnosis and management of acute abdominal pain.

Clinical Pathways in Emergency Medicine by Suresh S David Pdf

This book aims to provide condensed and crystallised knowledge, providing the rationale for investigations and interventions. Emergency medicine is a specialty where time and knowledge are critical factors in deciding appropriate management which could otherwise result in loss of life or limb. The challenge often is to have lucid management plans, whilst standing at the bedside of the patient. In order to address this challenge, a manuscript is needed which aims to enhance the clinical skills of the emergency physician. The objective of this book is to compile a road map for practitioners of emergency medicine, which would guide them through algorithm-based pathways. This format is distinctive by nature for its concise presentation, which facilitates easy reading and early application. Written by global experts, this book aims to be a truly international representation of emergency physicians who have come together to deliver contemporary concepts in emergency patient care.
