How regularly is this handbook revised? Do you have system for users to submit errors/suggestions for improving subsequent versions?

Seems pretty interesting and straightforward to tell people how to start treating a patient. In the example sheet of how to treat a patient with septic shock, I would advise that the entry should add more that if the patient has CHF and/or pulmonary edema, that 250 cc shouldn't be placed as an initial bolus unless there aren't other contradictions. Doctors at my hospital liked to leave a 500 cc 0.9% saline for 8 hours in these kinds of patients.

Probably just a small variation on different treatment styles.

I personally would have liked if the plan was ordered in the fashion medical orders are actually played out (though since I'm not familiar how medical orders are carried out in the US, it's possible this is the order used up north). My hospital always started with diet, continued with IV fluids, drugs and finally other treatment and requested lab tests on the document. A resident in my country could get grounded for a week if a nasty attending caught their indications note in a different order.

The handbook seems to be most useful to new interns that are starting to work as real employees but don't yet have the responsibility yet to do everything solo especially if it's a grave patient. Interesting book.

do you have a picture of any pages of the book ?

Does the handbook have pharmocological info?

How would you say this would compare to Sabatine's Pocket Book? I would imagine this is more akin to a survival guide of sorts versus pure treatment algorithms.

This is a good question, I'm wondering about it too. Also, when will there be an e-format for PDAs?
