| mrcs books free: Essential Radiological Anatomy for the MRCS Stuart Currie, Steven Kennish, Karen Flood, 2009-08-06 Over recent years the MRCS viva examination has increasingly made use of radiological imaging to facilitate the discussion of anatomy relevant to surgical practice.

| mrcs books free: Patient Safety in Surgery Philip F. Stahel, Cyril Mauffrey, 2014-08-20 In general, surgeons strive to achieve excellent results and ideal patient outcomes, however, this noble task is frequently failed. For patients, surgical complications are analogous to “friendly fire” in wartime. Both scenarios imply that harm is unintentionally done by somebody whose aim was to help. Interestingly, adverse events resulting from surgical interventions are more frequently related to system errors and a communication breakdown among providers, rather than to the imminent threat of the surgical blade “gone wrong”. Patient Safety in Surgery aims to increase the safety and quality of care for patients undergoing surgical procedures in all fields of surgery. Patient Safety in Surgery, covers all aspects related to patient safety in surgery, including pertinent issues of interest to surgeons, medical trainees (students, residents, and fellows), nurses, anaesthesiologists, patients, patient families, advocacy groups, and medicolegal experts. |

Using it the reader can aspire to gain diagnostic, decision making and operative surgical competence with confidence. - The book is written in a clear and direct style and providing explicit instructions using descriptive headings for easy reference. - The contents covers standard routine operations in full; non-routine and rarely performed operations are included only where appropriate and in lesser detail - The text includes advice on topics such as patient selection; preparation and access to the site of operation; how to accomplish the procedure; closing and aftercare - Difficulties are highlighted and advice given on how to respond to unexpected findings - Each procedure is fully described thus avoiding repetitions and cutting cross-references to a minimum - Regular summaries of key points in the decision making process are included. - This Sixth Edition is now known as Kirk's General Surgical Operations in recognition of its distinguished founding editor, Professor RM Kirk, who is now Editor Emeritus on the textbook. - The new editorial team for the Sixth Edition comprises a colorectal surgeon, a vascular surgeon and an orthopaedic surgeon - The contents have been restructured and radically revised into 42 chapters, the majority of which have been completely rewritten. - Laparoscopic techniques have been incorporated into all relevant chapters. - All the illustrations have been redrawn to improve their clarity. |
