Publisher's Summary

You're a doctor 11 hours into your shift, and you've just walked into a waiting area packed with patients. There's an elderly man complaining of chest pain, a teenage girl whose arms are swollen with bee stings, and an ambulance bringing in two unresponsive kids from a car crash. What do you do next?

In Dr. Benaroch's 24 lectures, experience for yourself the high-stakes drama and medical insights of life in an everyday emergency department: the most intense department in any hospital and home to the kind of split-second decision making, troubleshooting, and detective work that can make the difference between a patient's life and death.

Every lecture brings you up close and personal with the common and uncommon medical crises that emergency doctors encounter throughout their careers. As you shadow Dr. Benaroch on his shifts and sometimes even venture off-site, you'll encounter patients coming in with a variety of symptoms and complaints - some of which are easily diagnosed and treated and some of which are more life-threatening than they first appear. At the heart of each case are powerful examples of:

  • How emergency doctors think on their feet
  • How emergency doctors determine what's really wrong with a patient
  • How emergency doctors rule in - or out - certain diagnoses
  • How emergency doctors counsel patients and families on improving health

This is your opportunity to explore the adventure, mystery, and fascination of emergency medicine - and to discover why it's one of the most exciting and rewarding branches of medicine to work in.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Excellent narrator, writing and presentation

Narator kept a good pace with a very enthusiastic and soothing voice.

Content was well structured. It gave case studies and scenarios that had similar symptoms but with different treatments in order for you to understand and differentiate.

I learned quite a lot of terminology aswell as foresight into the on goings of an emergency department.
Definately a worthwhile purchase and will relisten at a later date.

Fascinating

I really enjoyed this book a lot. Just one thing:
Snake bites are treated differently in Australia, lest anyone should come across them.
The reading was very pleasant. Instructive for the layman and carers. Will look for more of these books.
