Produktbeschreibung

Part of the "What Do I Do Now?: Emergency Medicine" series, Psychiatric Emergencies uses a case-based approach to cover common and important topics in the examination, investigation, and management of psychiatric emergencies. Each chapter provides a discussion of the diagnosis, key points to remember, and selected references for further reading. The book addresses a wide range of topics including chemical sedation, suicide risk, personality disorders, malingering, cross-cultural issues, and more. Psychiatric Emergencies is an engaging collection of thought-provoking cases which clinicians can utilize when they encounter challenging situations and difficult psychiatric patients. The volume is also a self-assessment tool that tests the reader's ability to answer the question, "What do I do now?"
