Orthopaedics and Rheumatology on the Move PDF

Preface

Have you ever found orthopaedics and rheumatology overwhelmingly complicated? Are you simply short of time and have exams looming? If so, this short revision guide will help you. Written by students and junior doctors, this book presents information in a wide range of formats including flow charts, summary tables and authentic images annotated with comments. During the course of writing this book, the students among us have now become qualified doctors ourselves.

Orthopaedics and rheumatology are important specialties for any clinician as they encompass a myriad of commonly seen conditions in both the acute and chronic settings. This book has been designed to be used by medical students and junior doctors ‘on the move', both on the wards and as essential preparation for exams.

No matter what your learning style, we hope you will find this book appealing and easy to read. We think that this innovative style will help you, the reader, to connect with this often feared topic – helping you to learn and understand it (maybe even enjoy it!) while also helping to prepare you for exams and life as a junior doctor.

We of course welcome your feedback on how this book measures up and how you feel it could aid your study and work better. Everyday is a new learning experience for us all.
