Reviews / Votes
This is a very useful handbook for trainees to take with them whenever they are taking care of a vascular patient. The short paragraphs and bulleted lists make each section a fast read. Procedures are described in a step-by-step fashion, which facilitates preparing and dictating for the case. The handbook also covers perioperative management of vascular patients, which helps trainees in preventing and managing complications. * Doody's Notes *More details
