Like its previous edition, this book will contain a variety of medical case studies from actual patients presenting to the emergency department. Each chapter begins with a case or set of cases with typical and atypical aspects of the disease in question. This is followed by high-value learning points on the condition with background points, physiology, and pathophysiology of the disease, how to make the diagnosis, and finally how to initiate treatment. The cases provide expert discussion with tips and tricks, personal experience with management of each of the cases, and a follow-up description of the outcome of the cases to provide the reader with closure. To supplement each case study, all chapters include a pattern recognition component that identifies the key diagnostic features of the disease discussed. The chapters conclude with a summary of the diagnostic and treatment details of each condition. The table of contents of this edition has been significantly revised, with most of the radiology chapters being removed and 14 new chapters being added to this edition and its second volume. Volume 1 covers cardiovascular, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology/oncology, infection disease, and integumentary related cases. Case Studies in Emergency Medicine: LEARNing Rounds: Volume 1: Learn, Evaluate, Adopt, Right Now is an essential resource for a variety of emergency medicine clinicians including experienced physicians, residents, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, and medical students rotating in the emergency department. This book can also be used as a basis for small group discussions, especially in emergency medicine training programs.
