This book is a compilation of
every bit of useful information that I have learnt during my time in
medicine. It covers virtually every specialty and is organised into easily
understandable chapters. Each speciality is split into the following
sections:
History taking: what
questions to ask, how to ask them, why you are asking them, plus tips to
easily remember histories and to impress examiners
Performing examinations:
detailed step by step instructions on how to perform a perfect
clinical examination, what you are looking for, why you are performing each
step, and how to look confident and faultless in your OSCEs
Revision: put simply
these sections contain key knowledge about each specialty that is crucial to
your learning as a medical student. They contain hints and tips throughout
to help with your understanding of the subject and cut out all of the waffle
found in other books. This makes them an invaluable source of information
not only for your written exams, but as a quick reference in your junior
doctor years
Medication: covers
the major medications, in what situations they should be used, side effects
and how each work on the body
Investigations:
these sections detail the investigations you would order to support or
disprove diagnosis, plus how to interpret and present the results, e.g.
bloods, ECGs, X-rays, ABGs, and more
Appendix: the book
also contains extensive appendices that are full of valuable information
Throughout the book I also
refer to ‘tricks of the trade’ that my colleagues and I have found to be a
great help throughout our careers
I am very proud of this book. I
honestly believe that it will help you tremendously with your studies, and
also save you time and money which may have been spent on buying and
painstakingly reading through the other, overly complicated medical text
books currently on the market
