Contemporary Guide to Surgical InfectionsWritten by one of the nations foremost experts on the diagnosis and treatment of surgical infections, Contemporary Guide to Surgical Infections is divided into two segments. Segment 1Sections 1 through 10defines and characterizes surgical infections and discusses the general principles of diagnosis and management, including routine operations and potential postoperative complications. Specific sections expand on these concepts to provide helpful information for clinicians to consider when managing surgical infections. Segment 2 Sections 11 through 31provides more detailed narrative descriptions for the majority of specific infections associated with the respective anatomic locations. The goal of this segment is not to provide an encyclopedic overview of every possible infectious condition that might arise in that individual organ, but rather to highlight the infectious issues that first-line practitioners are likely to encounter.Handbooks in Health Care Company (HHC) is proud to present its library of clinical guides by world-class medical experts, now available through the App Store.
