Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Decent for Emergency Medicine 4th year medical school rotation
I used this book for my 4th year medical school ER rotation. I was looking for a book that could fit into my pocket, similar to "pocket medicine" for IM but had a broad amount of material covered that was easy to review. Those that liked pocket medicine will like this book too!

Positives:
-Book has subjects listed as complaints with common findings, important history information, Physical exam findings, Lab findings and Management. Includes trauma and some critical care aspects. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - on point
Im a PA and during my PA school I did a rotation in Trauma and Emergency Med at Mass Gen, where a lot of the writers of this book practice. I found that the information in this book was pretty much on point and provided a quick and general reference to a lot of the things you see in the ER. I studied this book and got all my pimp questions right!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Organized by Chief Complaint
I purchased this book, and the ED loaned us the Tintinalli Manual. This book is great for quick references to help come up with the best differential based on chief complaint. It is good for studying so you can focus on the most important issues with each major presentation. The Tintinalli is nice for reading to learn the info, but cannot be referenced as well while seeing patients.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The best pocket reference for Emergency Medicine
This book gets it right! The chapters are arranged based on chief complaint, which is how problems present in the ER. Within each chapter, a list of disorders that are potentially fatal and serious are offered, as well as the investigations required and management for each one. Unlike the Sabatine internal medicine book, this one is not cluttered nor ugly. The layout is crisp and organized, and everything is easy to find - given that it is an ER book, it should be since time is of the essence!
