MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Titles in the Pocket Tutor series give practical guidance on subjects that medical students and foundation doctors need help with “on the go”. Their highly affordable price represents great value for those rotating through modular courses or working on attachment.
- Common investigations (ECG, Chest X-Ray, etc)
- Clinical skills (procedures, patient examination, etc)
- Important and/or complex specialties in which students receive comparatively little dedicated training (psychiatry, renal medicine)
Key Points
- Logical, sequential content: an introduction to the clinical essentials of psychiatric practice; then chapters devoted to common disorder “clusters” or clinical issues (e.g. Anxiety disorders, Self harm & suicide)
- Descriptions of common disorders enhanced by Clinical Scenarios (Patient presents with...) which help students and trainees to recognise and manage common presenting problems
