Very useful book in my primary care office
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I feel indebted to the authors for producing this very useful book. Chapter 12 alone is worth the purchase price. It lists many of the abnormalities seen on an EKG and clearly spells out what needs or does not need to be done in terms of a workup. It has saved me many calls to a cardiologist for a curbside consult. It has many very practical recommendations such as a table of "Indications for hospital admission in patients with heart failure". Each chapter ends with an evidence-based summary for that chapter's topic. Best of all, it seems to only recommend referring the patient when the patient need to be referred unlike other books which end each paragraph with the recommendation that the patient be sent to the specialist. This book was truly written for the family physician or internist sitting by himself or herself in an office in the middle of nowhere.
Primary Cardiology
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The best thing I liked this book is the clear, actual and concise presentation of the subject. It is an excellent book for primary care physicians and internists. Primary Cardiology is divided into three parts. Part 1 covers fundamental principles thar underlie evidence-based medicine and translation of advances in science to the practice of medicine. Part 2 rational approaches to common clinical practice. Part 3 focouses on the evaluation of cardiovascular disorder. I higlhy recommend this book.
