Author: Autumn Graham (Editor), David J. Carlberg (Editor) Full Title: Gastrointestinal Emergencies: Evidence-Based Answers To Key Clinical Questions Publisher: Springer; 1st ed. 2019 edition (February 6, 2019) Year: 2019 ISBN-13: 9783319983431 (978-3-319-98343-1), 9783319983424 (978-3-319-98342-4) ISBN-10: 3319983431, 3319983423 Pages: 523 Language: English Genre: Medicine: Anesthesiology File type: PDF (True) Quality: 10/10 Price: 135.19 € This book answers key questions asked by emergency clinicians faced with complex gastrointestinal and abdominal pain presentations. Instead of a traditional format that includes epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment options, this book takes an approach that mirrors the way clinicians interact with patients – by asking and answering specific clinical care questions. The book is organized into sections by presentation – gastrointestinal bleeding, for example – each of which contains chapters on specific questions, such as “What is the best clinical risk score for low risk GIB patients?” Each clinical question comes with a detailed, evidence-based response and a summary that gives best practices, recommendations, and references. Additionally, at the end of each section is a chapter titled “Expert Corner,” which asks the same clinical questions to a surgical or gastrointestinal specialist and includes key pearls these experts have for emergency medicine practitioners. Gastrointestinal Emergencies: Evidence-Based Answers to Key Clinical Questions is an essential guide for emergency medicine physicians, residents, and medical students who want to review and improve their care of acute gastrointestinal emergencies. ------------- Our members see more.
