  • Epidemiology and Public Health Medicine

    • 1 Edición
    • Norman J. Vetter + 1 más
    • Inglés
    This book will cover four of the major strands of the courses taught to medical undergraduates under the umbrella terms of epidemiology and public health. Namely mainstream epidemiology, critical appraisal of medical evidence or evidence based medicine, population based issues such as communicable disease and environmental hazard, and the provision of health care. In the new curricula, these courses tend to occur in years one or two, and are often, together with behavioural sciences and primary care, partof larger courses called something like "Human Basis of Medicine" or "Medicine and Society".Greater importance is being placed on these topics than previously, and this, together with the fashion for evidence-based medicine, will ensure that the subject has a higher exam priority for students than in the past. Currently available books tend to be biased towards epidemiology or towards public health, thus necessitating the purchase of two books rather than one, and none offers the integrated approach at alevel suitable for undergraduates which is a feature of our book.

  • MCQ's for the MRCP Part 1

    Infectious Disease, Haematology and Chemical Pathology
    • 1 Edición
    • D. W. Galvani + 3 más
    • Inglés
    There are plenty of MCQ books around but most combine mainstream subjects such as gastroenterology and renal medicine, which most Senior House Officers find relatively straightforward. Few MCQ books, however, focus on the subjects that many candidates find difficult those in which they are least likely to have had good clinical experience. Infectious disease, haematology and clinical chemistry are three such subjects. Candidates feel uneasy about tackling MCQs in these areas, and these questions often become the deciders leading to success or failure. This new book from Galvani et al contains 150 five-part MCQs with full answers and explanations, for these three difficult areas.

  • Clinical Method

    A General Practice Approach
    • 3 Edición
    • Robin C. Fraser
    • Inglés
    The new edition of this core text retains the same aim as its predecessors: to help students gain the maximum benefit from their period of exposure to general practice as part of their basic medical training. 'Clinical Method' provides medical undergraduates with a guide to the underlying principles of clinical method and explains how to integrate these skills into clinical practice for the benefit of patients.Since publication of the second edition, there have been some major developments in Primary Care which have affected both clinical practice and education. The increasing influence of evidence-based medicine is being felt, as are the recommendations for change in undergraduate medical education - which decreed that the acquisition of basic clinical method should be a priority. Although previous editions of this book did address these issues, this new edition has been structured and extended to reflect them even more.
