Description

Prepare for your internal medicine clinical rounds and the end-of-rotation exam with the fully revised and updated Internal Medicine Essentials for Students! Like its best-selling predecessor, this new edition is organized around the major training areas included in the nationally recognized Core Medicine Clerkship Curriculum Guide.

IM Essentials contains 10% more content than the second edition, over 250 additional differential diagnosis tables and treatment algorithms, and over 70 color plates. Its usefulness is enhanced by links to over 460 pages of online materials, including new clinical photographs, tables, screening tools, and other instruments.

To further enrich your learning, each chapter of IM Essentials is fully integrated with its companion volume, MKSAP for Students 5, which features more than 450 self-assessment questions. IM Essentials contains content that can answer all the questions in MKSAP for Students 5.

A collaboration of the American College of Physicians and the Clerkship Directors in Internal Medicine, IM Essentials was written by clerkship directors and other physician educators who helped design the internal medicine curriculum and who are actively involved in teaching students on the IM clerkship.

Quotes, Reviews or Testimonials

"I am impressed with the balance the book achieves between quantity and quality of information. Students can gain the appropriate level of initial knowledge about internal medicine problems and develop a framework to seek additional knowledge if desired. Its easy readability makes it an ideal companion for on call and the extensive topics make it useful for preparing for clerkship tests."

-- Roberto Colon, MD (Wright-Patterson AFB Hospital) Doody's Review - previous edition
