This study guide for emergency medicine rotations, now in its second edition, contains 50 case studies designed for students who need to complete ER internships, clerkships and rotations and study for USMLE shelf exams. Editors Toy (Senior Academic Chair and Program Director, The Methodist Hospital Ob-Gyn Program, Houston), Simon (Chairman, Emergency Medicine, U. of California, San Francisco), Takanaka (emergency medicine, U. of Texas Medical School, Houston) and Rosh (emergency medicine, Wayne State U. School of Medicine) add complete discussions, clinical "pearls," references and definitions for each case study. Contributors provide primers on how to approach clinical problems and therefore "think like a doctor" in order to improve USLME exam scores.
