Opis

The 101 vital medical tips other textbooks don't teach you - Following the success of the award winning Cynical Acumen, John Larkin outlines key knowledge for medical students and junior doctors. Clustered around the headings of cynical, survival, clinical, career and miscellaneous tips, gems on offer here include: * Don't tell the patient what you're examining unless it's absolutely necessary * Always put your hand on the bed before sitting on it * Status epilepticus starts at twenty minutes * Don't have an affair with your secretary * Pick an idiosyncratic format for your tea/coffee. Packed with anecdotes and with fully explained rationales for each tip, there's more memorable - and sometimes downright vital - information in this book than you could hope for
