Part 2 is organised by body system and focuses on the most common diseases, although accounts of rare conditions are also given, and the level of information will provide junior clinicians with the necessary knowledge required for any clinical situation.
A concise approach that contains all that medical students and junior doctors need to know, covering both the clinical approach and the essential background knowledge
Summary and evidence based medicine boxes to assist revision and learning
Includes OSCE exam summaries
Fully updated content throughout with full colour illustrations and more photographs
Whether you need to develop your knowledge for clinical practice, or refresh that knowledge in the run up to examinations, Clinical Medicine Lecture Notes will help foster a systematic approach to the clinical situation for all medical students and junior doctors.
