The Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics

This is the new paperback-bound version of The Washington Manual. This best-selling manual is now available in this paperback format that lays flat when open and is also available in the traditional spiral binding. Established for over 40 years as the Bible of the medical ward, The Washington Manual(tm) of Medical Therapeutics is now in its Thirty-First Edition and builds upon that proud tradition-with even more of the current information you need, with a focus on inpatient care, delivered in a timesaving, quick-reference style. This edition includes the latest facts on nosocomial infections, West Nile virus, and agents of bioterrorism; the latest management of AIDS/HIV; and current JNC VII guidelines for management of hypertension. Drug appendices have a new quick-scanning format for rapid information retrieval.
