Minor Emergencies

Minor Emergencies, 4th Edition, is a clinical reference designed for clinicians who treat patients experiencing non-life-threatening crises. Published by Elsevier, the 896-page volume provides concise guidance on both procedural and pharmaceutical treatments for nearly 200 common clinical presentations.

The book addresses minor emergencies across major medical areas, including neurologic and psychiatric, ophthalmologic, ear, nose, and throat, oral and dental, pulmonary and thoracic, gastrointestinal, urologic, gynecologic, and musculoskeletal care. Coverage includes practical guidance on presentations such as the initial management of epistaxis.

A templated format allocates two to three pages of coverage to individual topics and incorporates "What to Do" and "What NOT to Do" checklists for at-a-glance clinical consultation.
