100 Cases in Acute Medicine 2nd Edition

100 Cases in Acute Medicine 2nd Edition brings together some of the most challenging and eye-opening real-life scenarios faced by junior doctors and medical students in the emergency department , wards and even in the community setting. It’s co-authored by Adam Nabeebaccus and Henry Fok , with contributions from Kerry Layne , all of whom know how unpredictable things can get when you’re the medic on duty and a patient lands in front of you with nothing but an empty bottle of paracetamol and codeine phosphate and a roommate who says they found them next to some wine.

This second edition is updated and revised with sharper focus on acute care situations. Whether it’s someone unconscious, dealing with mental health crisis, or presenting strange clinical symptoms that don’t quite fit the textbook — this book’s got your back.

Perfect for those tackling their end of year exams, preparing for clinical rotations or just wanting a revision aid that isn’t dull and lecture-like.

Key Features
