Prescribing medications safely is a cornerstone of clinical practice but students receive little or no teaching in the practicalities of prescribing. Instead they are often left to learn on the ward, which inevitably leaves gaps in their knowledge. Unsurprisingly, prescribing errors among junior doctors are common and can cause significant harm to patients. This is a cause for concern with the GMC, and a potential solution - in the form of a national exam - has been proposed. Prescribing Skills Workbook is designed to help students and junior doctors bridge the gap between understanding the science of pharmacology and accurately writing a prescription on a patient's drug chart. The workbook format offers an ideal way to practice by completing a series of realistic, life-size charts in response to a clinical scenario. The book features 45 exercises, each one carefully chosen to test the reader's grasp of a key principle such as management of the patient on warfarin. Each exercise begins with a short scenario; next, the reader is invited to complete a chart based on the details in the case; then follows an answer section containing a correctly completed chart together with a summary of the main clinical and educational aspects of the exercise. Key Points A unique resource for medical students and foundation doctors to improve their understanding of the principles of safe prescribing and practice the physical act of filling out a drug chart correctly 45 blank' hospital charts replicate the experience of completing a realistic, life-size prescription, with 45 corresponding charts filled out correctly to enable the reader to compare, identify and rectify errors DRUGCHARTS checklist provides systematic framework for accurate prescribing by highlighting the key items to consider in each case Key points boxes highlight the main learning objectives in each exercise Short introductory chapter includes tips for safe prescribing

Third edition of acclaimed, richly illustrated textbook is the definitive resource for learning challenging anatomy! While the relevance of anatomy to medical diagnosis and treatment continually evolves, anatomical knowledge will always be instrumental to effective treatment of patients. Building on the tradition of the highly acclaimed prior editions, Anatomy: An Essential Textbook, Third Edition by Anne M. Gilroy features new learning components that leverage the Thieme companion, Atlas of Anatomy, Fourth Edition. Concise, bulleted text paired with large, detailed anatomic figures enhance visual learning and retention of knowledge. Organized by eight units, the book starts with basic concepts and a general overview of anatomic systems. Subsequent units focused on regional anatomy cover the Back, Thorax, Abdominal Wall and Inguinal Region, Pelvis and Perineum, Upper Limb, Lower Limb, and Head and Neck. Each unit includes a chapter on the practical application of regional imaging and extensive question sets with detailed explanations. A new ordering of chapters now mirrors the revised organization of the Atlas and sequence of dissections in most gross anatomy programs. More than 100 new images, updated illustrations, and revised versions of all autonomic schematics enhance understanding of anatomy New topics in clinical and developmental anatomy addressed throughout include clinically important vascular anastomoses, spinal cord development, and common anatomic anomalies Matching colored side tabs allow quick access to similar units in both books Over 50 of the new and previously included clinical and developmental correlations now feature descriptive images, radiographs, or schematics Self-testing sections in each unit have been expanded with over 40 new USMLE-style question sets with detailed explanations This is the quintessential resource for medical students to build anatomy knowledge and confidence as they progress in their medical careers.

For eight decades the Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases has been the standard text from which most medical students and house ofcers have learned rheumatology. I myself will never forget thumbing through an older edition of the Primer as a second-year resident, while waiting to review a perplexing patient with my tutor. Fortunately the tutor was r- ning late with his own patients, so I had time to fip through the book – then much thinner – a couple of times. While turning the pages, per- ing the features of those diseases whose names were still exotic to me, and considering my patient’s history of conductive hearing loss and p- monary nodules, a light went on when I stumbled eventually on a part- ular chapter. I still remember the jaw-dropping efect on my tutor of my announcement then that I had a patient with Wegener’s granulomatosis. I think I became a rheumatologist that very moment! Subsequent editions of the Primer have sufered from the inevitable “obesity creep,” making it an outstanding reference textbook but virtually impossible to fip through quickly while awaiting one’s tutor, and even more difcult to slip into the pocket of a white coat to carry on rounds. For this reason we have created the Pocket Primer, a mini version that cuts the larger book down to its essentials.
