Emergencies in Medical Practice

📓 Medical personnel are called upon to attend the emergency cases at odd hours. These cases need immediate attention and one cannot shirk from the responsibility of providing the right emergent treatment. Very often there is none around to confer upon or time does not permit to do so. Hence every body practicing medicine is supposed to know the common emergencies covering all medical specialities and is to be familiar with their presentation and modalities of treatment. It is impracticable for a busy practitioner or resident to go through the voluminous editions on various branches to consult during any such emergency. So a comprehensive and concise edition covering all common emergencies was in demand. This book deals with a brief account of diseases, their diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment. The recent investigations and some experimental therapeutic approaches alto find due mention for aspiring students. The language has been structured for easy assimilation and reproduction. Pathophysiology and biochemical basis of various disorders' have been dilated for better understanding and lasting impression. The various proposed as well as well established modes of drug action and interactions also find a mention. Many uncommon disease entities and few old sparingly adopted therapeutic approaches have been deliberately ommitted to keep the book handy and within reach of every student.
