Synopsis

You already know more medicine than your practice scores suggest. The gap is the decision.

Most items you get wrong are not wrong facts. They are correct actions chosen at the wrong point in the sequence: imaging a patient who needed an intervention, confirming a diagnosis you should have treated on suspicion, or applying a screening interval to a symptomatic patient. This book is built around that gap.

What is inside

  • 29 clinical algorithms that run from the presenting complaint to the decision: chest pain, dyspnea, syncope, abdominal pain, GI bleed, altered mental status, headache, stroke, seizure, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, acid-base, AKI, fever, shock, trauma, and more.
  • 10 topic cards on the presentations that carry the most marks, each stating the trigger, the presentation, the deciding clue, the testing, the next step, the management, when to escalate, what is commonly missed, and the trap.
  • 28 comparison tables putting the look-alikes side by side, because the exam rarely asks what a disease is. It asks which of two it is.
  • 47 original questions with an explanation on every option, right and wrong.
  • The Final Review Command Center and a seven day plan with a weakness tracker for the last week.

How to use it

Alongside a question bank, not instead of one. Work a block, then bring the items you missed here and find the decision you got wrong. 136 pages, searchable, with a linked contents.

The honest part

This book promises no outcome and quotes no statistics about its readers. It is an educational aid for examination preparation. It is not clinical guidance and must not be used to make decisions about the care of a patient. Every algorithm, table, question and phrase was written for this book; nothing has been copied or adapted from any commercial question bank or review text.
