The second edition of Emergencies in Obstetrics and Gynaecology provides a practical and accessible guide to all emergency situations encountered in obstetrics and gynaecology, from the immediately life-threatening to the smaller but urgent problems that may arise. Designed around the symptoms and signs with which the patient presents to the hospital, this handbook explains how to arrive at a differential diagnosis and how to prevent, manage, or treat an emergency. The 'Obstetric emergencies' section covers topics from early pregnancy through to post-delivery complications, whilst the 'Gynaecologic emergencies' section addresses those issues that could potentially pose a threat to a women's fertility or even her life. Addressing new topics on issues that have become more prevalent, such as substance misuse in pregnancy, and violence against women and children, the second edition of Emergencies in Obstetrics and Gynaecology is an essential read. A new topic on 'preoperative assessment' outlines how to manage consent, the risks, benefits, and what the patient should expect.

Written exclusively for EMS physicians with everything you need to know for certification A Doody's Core Title for 2021! In 2010 the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM) began certifying emergency physicians in the subspecialty of Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Every EMS agency and system must have a physician available to provide medical direction of the service, in-the-moment consultation, and oversight of training and quality improvement. Whether they are working in the ambulance, on the streets, out in the wilderness, or in the skies, EMS physicians play a pivotal role as part of the EMS team. EMS Medicine is the most concise textbook written specifically for EMS physicians. While there are EMS books available for EMTs and EMS managers, only a fraction of their content covers what EMS physicians need to know. This well-written and concise textbook details current EMS physician practice and provides precisely the information you need to successfully prepare for board certification. It covers operations and oversight, legal issues, business practices, disaster preparation and response, special operations, field procedures, transportation issues, and more.

This manual explains how to make the right decisions on the timing and selection of investigations and surgical procedures in emergency and urgent surgical settings and describes the most widely used procedures step by step with the aid of high-quality illustrations. The goal is to address the situations that can arise in almost any emergency department throughout the world, enabling the surgeon on call to acquire or sharpen the knowledge and skills needed to deal with acute surgical problems in the most appropriate way. The reader will gain a sound understanding of the most efficient diagnostic modalities, pre-, intra-, and postoperative decision-making, and surgical techniques and issues in particular circumstances. The manual stems from an initiative by members of the European Society of Trauma and Emergency Surgery (ESTES) and the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) to set up and formalize Emergency Surgery Courses to provide specific training in emergency and acute care surgery. It represents a didactic accompaniment to the course that will guide the beginner and maintain a certain degree of standardization among the more experienced.
