There have been lots of changes in the traditional way of how students, both undergraduates and post graduates, have been taught.

Produktbeschreibung
There have been lots of changes in the traditional way of how students, both undergraduates and post graduates, have been taught. These changes have happened without appropriate books to meet these needs. The format of professional examination has also changed with allocation of less time for clinical examination. Unfortunately the wealth of knowledge is still hidden under the cover of thick books, difficult to consult or to carry to the patient's bedside. This has resulted in a severe lack of knowledge in graduated students who may pass an examination without a thorough/accurate grasp of the subject. Orthopaedic surgery is an increasingly sub-specialised specialty - even a consultant s practice may not expose the student to the full range of orthopaedic problems.
Rapid Orthopaedic Diagnosis will address all of these issues by taking the reader into step by step examination in less than 10 minutes (Once the reader has familiarised him or herself with the methods) with full explanation of how and why a test is done.
Autorenporträt
Seyed Behrooz Mostofi, BSc, MBBS, MS (Orth), FRCS (Orth) is Senior Specialist Registrar in Orthopaedics in South Thames Deanery, UK. He is currently based at William Harvey Hospital, Ashford, Kent, UK. He is also the author of several other books in replacement systems and other areas in Orthopaedics. Two of his titles have been published by Springer: 'Who's Who in Orthopedics' and 'Fracture Classifications in Clinical Practice.' Dr Mostofi has taught the elements of the clinical examination to medical students and doctors taking the FRCS, MRCS and FRCS (Orth) examination over the past few years, enabling him to organise his thinking and refine his teaching methods. As an examiner, he also had the opportunity to test the ability of the candidates and find out the missing areas. The method is broadly based on time tested Apley's system (Look, feel, move, special tests) in a specific, simplified, informative and target based way.
Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"This book sets out the salient points of the history and the physical examination that assist physicians in arriving at an orthopedic diagnosis. ... It is especially appropriate for medical students, interns, or junior residents." (Samuel J. Chmell, Doody's Review Services, February, 2009)
