Clinical Knowledge Management: Opportunities and Challenges, 1st ed. 2005

Academics and practitioners working in the field of healthcare management need to effectively manage knowledge and knowledge management (KM). KM places value on the tacit knowledge that individuals hold within an institution and often makes use of IT to free up the collective wisdom of individuals within an organization. Clinical Knowledge Management: Opportunities and Challenges establishes a convergence in thinking between KM and knowledge engineering healthcare applications. This book assembles original and innovative contributions in the area of KM and knowledge engineering applications for healthcare systems and clinical engineering applications. Clinical Knowledge Management: Opportunities and Challenges reinforces the implicit contention that the healthcare industry is calling for KM frameworks that can marry these two perspectives. This book has appeal in both camps and is the first to genuinely examine KM for healthcare in the necessary holistic manner.

Oxford Handbook of Clinical medicine

Review

If you buy one book in medical school, make it the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine. (Oxford Medical School Gazette )

...only stethoscopes and hand gel match its ubiquity in hospital...[it] remains a medical classic. It moves with the ever-changing landscape of medicine, reminding us why we are all here, what we have learnt, and how much further we have to go. It is, in short, a guiding star. (BMJ )

The seventh edition and 21st birthday says it all. (BMA Medical Book Competition 2007 )

A new edition of a classic has hit the bookshelves...[and] it doesn't appear to have lost any of its magic - dare I say it may have become even better...This handbook is still packed with facts and brilliantly laid out, making it one of the best quick reference texts around...The authors have clearly not rested on their laurels - the many improvements keep this medical student favourite on the 'essential' list, and give it that competitive edge to maintain its prime position in the medical student pocket.

Product Description

HIGHLY COMMENDED IN THE MEDICINE CATEGORY IN THE BMA 2006 MEDICAL BOOK COMPETITION!

The 11^th Edition of this famous medical textbook, first published in 1964, has been extensively rewritten and expanded by a new team of 3 editors and 22 authors who are all active clinicians and experts in their specialist fields.

Macleod's Clinical Examination describes the practical skills every clinician must acquire and develop in order to evolve diagnostic procedures and management strategies and plans. Its main purpose is to document and explain how to:

talk with a patient

take the history from the patient

examine a patient

formulate your findings into differential diagnoses and rank these in order of probability

use investigations to support or refute your differential diagnosis.

The book has three sections:

Section One details the principles of history taking, general examination and the external features of disease.

Section Two comprises the systems chapters which are laid out in the same order.

A brief introduction setting the scene

Definitions and common symptoms

The History, what questions to ask and how to follow them up

The Clinical Examination, what and how to examine

Investigations:

those done at the patient's side (near-patient tests)

laboratory investigations

invasive investigations including X-rays

All chapters include sample OSCE stations and summaries of key points emphasising good practice

Section Three is entirely new and relates to the patient as a whole; the first outlines the examination of the neonate, preschool and primary school child, while the second covers the approach to the critically ill patient. Both chapters emphasize an integrated and structured approach to these patients.

This new edition of Macleod's Clinical Examination is the most comprehensive yet covering aspects of history taking and physical signs in every system including examination of the Critically Ill Patient.

It should be of value to:

Medical students training to be effective doctors.

Established doctors studying for postgraduate examinations including MRCP (UK) PACES.

General Practitioners wishing to update their skills in all aspects of clinical examination.

Nurse practitioners both in primary and secondary care involved in patient assessment.

CECIL MEDICINE 23RD EDITION

  

Review

Ranks among the best medical textbooks in longevity, comprehensiveness, tradition, and use by practitioners and students alike". JAMA


Goldman and Ausiello have given the 22nd edition of this venerable textbook a 21st-century remodeling, which sets a new standard that others are sure to follow.

A doctors bible...It is an incredibly useful resource, it's so detailed you may only feel the benefits of it from 3rd year and even in 3rd year it's pretty comprehensive. Covering pretty much every disease I have heard of so far, it includes an array of less common infectious diseases all accompanied by appropriate clinical images, extensive treatment and pathology sections.

Guideline-based, they have assembled a team of key opinion leaders in the study and management of syncope. The first section of the book discusses the scientific basis behind the diagnosis and management of syncope going into detail regarding the pathways leading to syncope symptoms and the pathology behind them.

Angina: An Atlas of Investigation and Management, 2st ed, 2007

Angina is most commonly associated with myocardial ischemia, but may also be symptomatic of valvular heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or uncontrolled high blood pressure. While chronic or stable angina is predictable and relatively easy to manage, it is the sudden and unexpected onset of symptoms in patients with unstable angina that represents the most significant challenge to the clinician, being a risk indicator for acute MI, severe cardiac arrhythmia or even cardiac arrest. Since chest pain can also indicate a number of other less critical conditions, it is important that the clinician can rapidly and accurately determine the true risk status of the patient in each case. In this atlas, the authors guide the reader through the assessment of the patient with chest pain, beginning with the simple physical examination and evaluation of other risk factors that may be present, progressing to non-invasive tests such as EKG and various imaging techniques, and concluding with coronary angiography. The diagnostic value of each of these techniques is compared and appropriate guidance given on evaluating clinical findings.
