 Greatest ER Medicine book for the price November 28, 2008
On a dollar for dollar basis this is the best ER text for practical use IN THE DEPARTMENT during a busy ER shift. The layout of the book, 1 diagnosis per 2 pages (every diagnosis fits nicely on the left and right hand pages of the opened text). It quickly highlights the presentation of illness with signs and symptoms, the necessary workup (labs, x-rays, additional studies) and recommended dispositions (admit vs discharge). It WILL NOT give you an in depth discussion of the disease process, you must make the diagnosis, but it rapidly allows you to get your essential workup started.
 good quick reference. June 22, 2008

good quick reference book. layout is open and easy to read but lacking the details. needs to read up more like uptodate or emedicine. if you have a PDA, getting the pda version would be nicer than the book version as it is too big & heavy.
Phenomenal text for quick review April 10, 2008
Great for reviewing most everything you'll come across in the ER. If you need to brush up on certain topics while working quick and to the point.
My favorite reference April 12, 2006

This is a crucial tool when you're on a busy shift in the ED. It's a practical reference, not a study guide. A patient comes in with radiation keratitis. Do you use steroid drops? Beats me. Thats when I go to this baby. This is my most used reference. Very well organized and easy to use.
 For Medical Students, Physician Extenders and Interns March 23, 2005

Its an okay book with decent tips and information but its really too brief and should not be relied on solely for information. Its a great book for medical students and starting interns and physician extenders.
