Oxford Desk Reference Respiratory Medicine PDF

Preface
This book aims to act as a rapid reference for busy health professionals and covers the main respiratory disorders that would be encountered both in the inpatient and outpatient setting. Each section has been written by an expert in a particular field and is focused on providing a clear, concise clinical message on how best to investigate the relevant condition. In order to make the book as user-friendly as possible we have included a lot of images and illustrations to make the information more accessible. We believe it is one of the only books in the field where chest radiology lies alongside clinical information. Each chapter also includes authors’ tips and key messages and is laid out in a format which makes the information easy to find and digest.
The book includes many common-sense approaches and has a guide for further reading in each area. It should be possible to use as a ‘first-line’ reference book either to jog your memory or to read about a condition with which you are not familiar. It is likely that you will also need to consult other texts and data sources. However, this is a very portable book which can be carried around with you in your bag or left on the ward for quick and easy reference. We hope that you will enjoy this new approach.
