Product Description
Completely revised and evidence-based, The 5-Minute Clinical Consult, 2008 is now in its Sixteenth Edition. It provides rapid-access information on the diagnosis, treatment, medications, follow-up, and associated conditions of 675 medical conditions. Organized alphabetically, this best-selling clinical reference presents brief, bulleted points on disease topics in a consistent 3-column format. Most topics include cited evidence-based references. Differential diagnosis algorithms have been moved to the front of the book, ICD-9 codes are highlighted, and there is additional coverage of complementary and alternative medicine. A bound-in CD-ROM and a companion Website include the full content of the book, plus 178 English and Spanish patient handouts from AAFP; full-color images from Goodheart's Photoguide of Common Skin Disorders, Second Edition; 15 short videos of medical procedures; and over 50 new pediatrics topics not found in the print book. The Website will be updated quarterly with new content and videos. The 5-Minute Clinical Consult, 2008 will also be available for PDAs.
Reader Reviews
I am an Orthopedic Hand surgeon and I use this book when a patient has a medical disease I am not familiar with where I have some idea of the disease but not enough and this book gives me a quick review in the middle of office hours.
