Dr. Benrubi's acclaimed clinical reference, "Obstetric and Gynecologic Emergencies", has now been revised and reformatted into a portable, affordable, and practical handbook. Designed for rapid reference in the emergent care setting, the handbook features numerous treatment algorithms, bulleted lists, and tables. Coverage includes all emergent conditions and non-emergent problems, such as STDs, that are frequently present in emergency departments. Each chapter focuses on diagnosis and treatment and includes at least one treatment algorithm. Many chapters from the text have been rewritten to reflect current practice, and new chapters on crisis intervention, urologic emergencies, and emergency contraception have been added
