    Scheins Common Sense Emergency Abdominal Surgery

    Product Details
    »Book Publisher: Springer
    »ISBN: B000PC0WHY
    »Book author:
    »Amazon Rating: 5.0

    Book Description:

    Emergency abdominal surgery is a battlefield for the surgeon - providing character-building experiences, and opportunities for triumph and disaster. In the second edition of this ’simple’ book, emergency abdominal surgery is discussed in an informal and no nonsense fashion - as practiced in the ‘trenches’ of the ER and the OR. The preferred approach for a given situation is discussed in context; it has to fulfill certain prerequisites: save life, decrease morbidity, be cost effective and be performed correctly.

    Reviews of the 1st edition:

    “What makes this book very readable are the ‘pregnant’ citations, aphorisms and ’smart savings’, which are often heard at the bedside and operation rooms but almost never reach the pages of a book”. (P. Klein, Chirurg, 2000)

    “This is written with short punchy chapters making it very difficult to put down….” (R.A.B. Wood, Journal Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, 2000)

    “Since Mondor’s times in the forties of the last century there was no other book in surgery to be written so easy and witty…’ (Boris D. Savchuk, World Journal of Surgery, 2002)

    »Book author: A. Gullo, G. Berlot
    »Amazon Rating:

    Book Description:

    Continuing medical education and specialty training procedures represent highly dynamical processes, with a continuously evolving content. The specific teaching methods available (micro-teaching, team teaching, mastery learning, simulation, and e-learning) are essential elements of this process to promote professional updating and teaching at the bedside, aimed at providing an excellent clinical practice. The didactic laboratory is the core of this process: teachers, students and the School must be able to integrate in order to encourage this trend, and following this trend, the Trieste School of Medicine has long recognised the importance of supporting educational aspects and teaching programmes that promote our discipline.

    This volume is the result of the co-operation of the Trieste School of Medicine with experts at a national and international level who, in 2005, took part in seminars or micro-teaching sessions held at the Cattinara University Hospital.
