SynopsisThe closest a student can get to the wards without seeing patients! Designed to teach through clinical cases, this text offers 60 of the most common clinical problems in emergency medicine along with case discussion questions, clinical pearls, key terms and concepts, and USMLE-style questions and answers to reinforce learning. This is an excellent study guide for the emergency medicine shelf exam and the USMLE Step 2., This new addition to our Case File series features 45 clinical scenarios with 1-3 open-ended questions, weaving biochemistry concepts into the clinical scenarios, and a 3-5 page discussion of the basic science concepts, including definitions and pathophysiology. 3-5 USMLE-style review questions follow each case and "Biochemistry Pearls" at the end of each chapter highlight key points and enable quick study before exams.
