Oxford Handbook of Clinical Haematology

The Oxford Handbook of Clinical Haematology continues to provide the essential knowledge needed in modern clinical practice for the diagnosis and management of patients with disorders of the blood. Major advances in the specialty, primarily within the malignant haematology area, have been reflected in this thoroughly revised new edition. Agencies such as NICE have influenced the prescribing of chemotherapeutic and other related drugs, and there have also been updates from the British Committee for Standards in Haematology and other guidelines for malignant disease, thrombosis and haemostasis. This Handbook includes the main differential diagnoses and relevant investigations that will help junior doctors to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. The management of the patient is provided in a way that allows the junior to initiate treatment whilst waiting for review of the patient by a senior member of staff. A bestselling Oxford Handbook, this is the indispensable companion for all those caring for patients with blood disorders. BRILLIANT HANDBOOK WITH GREAT IMPROVEMENTS OVER THE YEARS.INVALUABLE FOR HAEMATOLOGY CLINIC AS WELL AS SPECIALISED HAEMATOLOGY CLINICS (MYELOMA,LYMPHOMA,HAEMOSTASIS..CLINICS)
I FOUND IT USEFUL FOR TRAINEES,SPECIALISTS IN HAEMATOLOGY AS WELL AS TO A MEDICAL STUDENT WHO LIKE TO EXPLORE THE FIELD OF HAEMATOLOGY.
IT IS USEFUL ALSO FOR QUICK ANSWERS IN THE WARDS OF HAEMATOLOGY & STEM CELL TRANSPLANT UNITS.
I BOUGHT THE VENYL COVER EDITION & HAD A FREE SOFT COVER EDITION SENT TO ME FROM A DRUG REP. WHICH I FOUND IT LIGHTER TO CARRY & MORE CONVENIENT.
3RD EDITION CARRIES GOOD DEMONSTRATIONS & COLOURED PLATES OF BLOOD & BONE MARROW FILMS BUT I THINK IT NEEDS TO CHANGE ALL THE BLACK & WHITE FILMS TO COULOURD.ALSO NEEDS TO DO COLOURED INDEX & KEY FACT BOXES AS IN THE 8TH. EDITION OF OXFORD HANDBOOK OF MEDICINE.
FINALLY IT IS A VALUE FOR MONEY & INTENT.
