Current Surgical Guidelines cover

Back for a second edition, Current Surgical Guidelines has been fully updated to reflect changes in guidelines across the surgical sub-specialities since its first publication. Drawing together printed and digital guidelines from the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), and relevant US guidelines, this book acts as a valuable complete and comprehensive reference for those embarking on their surgical training, revising for exams, or for senior staff as an aide-memoire. Guidelines have been distilled into summary tables, and topics are formulated to answer most real-life clinical practice questions with contemporary facts and figures, decision recommendations, and treatment options. New chapters on hernias, skin malignancies, trauma, and medicolegal practice have been added to increase fresh challenges facing the contemporary surgical trainee.

Review from previous edition A must have for the FRCS surgery exam, both parts. Places all the current guidelines in one place for easy review. Very easy reading. Small enough to carry around for easy in between theatre case, reviewing. Covers all areas asked on the exam. * Amazon *
The authors are to be commended on compiling such a comprehensive collection of contemporary surgical guidelines and presenting them so clearly that the busy clinician will have no trouble whatsoever in reading and digesting their contents I am certain that I will be referring to my own copy on a very regular basis * Professor N.J. London, Professor of Surgery, University of Leicester and Honorary Consultant Vascular/Endocrine Surgeon, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust *
...this book is suitable to be read by all levels of doctors in surgery [and] will be useful as part of preparation for MRCS, both the theory and clinical parts...it also covers a comprehensive syllabus of general surgery and principles of surgery well. From a junior doctor point of view, [the book] will be very useful for day-to-day practice. * K. W., surgical SHO at University Hospitals of Leicester *
