註釋This is another addition to the Kumar & Clark family of information for medical students and doctors.
This product is a pack containing a book and a CD-rom of the PDA version. It covers the complete range of acute medical conditions and problems that junior doctors are likely to encounter during the first years of training (PRHO/SHO) - the Foundation programme years.
The material is divided into chapters reflecting core medical specialties - including infectious diseases; STD; gastroenterology; etc. Each chapter is then subdivided into problems, such as (for example) pyrexia of unknown origin (under the Infectious Disease Group), HIV/Aids (under STD) and Vomiting and Weight Loss (under Gastroenterology).
Each problem follows a standard pattern or template: it begins with a case history, and is accompanied by short, succinct text divided up by headings such as 'What are the commonest causes of...'; What factors predispose to....' Where relevant there are also sections on pathology, pathophysiology and prognosis. Important points to note in the acute context are picked out in boxes ('Remember!' And 'Information') as are vital investigations. Each chapter also ends with questions and answers.
The book and the PDA version is well signposted and well indexed, to allow information to be found quickly and easily - essential for the 'on take' experience.
