Rapid ECG Interpretation 3rd Edition 2007 (Contemporary Cardiology)
2008-04-15 15:48:00
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the first test performed on most cardiac patients–one that helps make the fi rst part of the diagnosis and one that can frequently direct treatment decisions. Thus, for any physician, a solid understanding of the ECG is critical. Learning the basics and subtleties of the ECG is a right of passage for all physicians and health care providers during their training.So, what would we want from a book on ECGs? Ideally, such a book would be comprehensive, yet concise, practically oriented, and explain pathophysiology and its application to practice.Dr. Khan has written such a book. Rapid ECG Interpretation is comprehensive, yet concise, and very practically oriented. More important, it takes a step-by-step approach, walking the reader through a thorough evaluation of the ECG. This, as many of us have been taught, is the “right” way to look at an ECG. This edition includes a new opening chapter that covers basic concepts. This quickly orients the reader...

Anesthesiology 1st Edition (McGraw Hill) 2007
2008-03-29 20:01:00
There are multiple sources of information about the clinical practice of anesthesiology, or about the research that forms the basis for that practice. Further, there are numerous subspecialty books that delve into the subdisciplines in great detail — often more detail than the advanced trainee or practitioner desires or needs. In Anesthesiology by David Longnecker, David Brown, Mark Newman and Warren Zapol , the authors have focused on what is truly important for the clinical practice of anesthesiology in all its dimensions, while being efficient in the presentation of this essential material. Throughout, the authors have asked “What is important?” “Why is it important?” “When should it be applied?” and “How should it be applied?” Their overarching goal was to write for the practitioner, not for the small cadre of physician scientists who may be exploring a narrow subdiscipline in great detail — such work is essential for the future scientific basis and direction...

Snell Clinical Anatomy by Regions 8th Edition
2008-03-27 10:58:00
Each patient that you examine in your clinic with medical problems is composed of gross anatomic structures, which may or may not exhibit functional deficits. All students must therefore enter medicine with a basic knowledge of anatomy that is clinically relevant.The explosion in the knowledge of medical disease and the technological advances associated with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases have dictated a complete restructuring of the curriculum for medical students, dental students, allied health students, and nursing students. In the United States, students in many schools are now being offered programs in gross anatomy in which only part of the body is dissected, and this is supplemented by the use of prosected specimens, plastinated specimens, and computer imagery.To assist in the necessary curriculum changes, in the eighth edition, great efforts have been made to weed out unnecessary material and streamline the text. The following changes have been introduced:All the li...
