Medical practice in the modern age requires familiarity with clinical guidelines and standards, which are often published separately in long and discursive documents. This new addition to the Oxford Medical Publications summarises the key clinical practice guidelines which all final year medical students and Foundation Year 1 and 2 doctors should know when managing common conditions. Logically organised by medical specialty, the reader can quickly familiarise themselves with the key principles of diagnosis and management at the appropriate level for beginning a new rotation on the wards. Each guideline summary is tailored to the education level expected of doctors in their first two years of training, with clear instructions for when a more senior colleague should be called upon to help. Written by a team of junior doctors under the supervision of senior clinicians, this is the first resource to distil a range of guidelines from different locations (such as NICE, SIGN, and more) into an easily digestible format. Practical and user-friendly, with tables, diagrams, flowcharts, and algorithms to convey the key points quickly and easily, Oxford Clinical Guidelines is the new invaluable resource for every final year medical student and doctor at the beginning of their training.
Incredibly thorough and really well thought out. This [book] would be incredibly helpful both in clinical practice day to day and as a tool to prepare for exams * Foundation Year 1 doctor (newly qualified doctor), Croydon University Hospital, UK *
Perfectly pitched to its target audience. I wish I had this book when I started as a medical trainee * ST1 Radiology Trainee, University Hospital Southampton, UK *
Clear, informative, and full of detail * Internal medical trainee stage 2 (qualified doctor for 4 years), County Durham and Darlington Foundation Trust, UK *
This book is an ambitious attempt to aggregate the most widely used and current clinical practice guidelines in a small, portable format. It achieves this aim well, especially for its intended audience: doctors in training. The book will be a valuable resource for students and trainees seeing patients in the clinic or hospital. It will also be beneficial for more experienced general practice doctors, as a refresher for infrequently seen conditions. The book can serve as a reference text in a medical school library, as it provides an overview of topics likely to be on in-training tests. I recommend this book to physicians-in-training in the U.K., especially trainees in medical school and general practice. * Jack Harrigan, MD Candidate (University of Kansas School of Medicine - Wichita) *
