Notes:Revised edition of: Infectious diseases : a clinical short course / Frederick S. Southwick. Third edition. [2014].
Includes bibliographical references.
Summary:"Organized by system/region--as opposed to pathogens--to simulate the ways you encounter common pathogens and disorders in rounds or in practice, this new edition includes key updates and aligns content with information tested on the USMLE Step 2. By indicating the number of days you should spend on each chapter, the author has created a schedule for completion of each lesson. A wide array of tables summarizing the methods of clinical assessment, anti-infective agent doses, and drug toxicities--critical facts that do not require memorization, but need to be referred to when caring for patients--facilitate this condensed learning schedule."--Publisher's description.
