7Preface
Intern Tips in Obstetrics and Gynecology aims to provide physicians still in training, physicians-in-practice, midwives and medical students with a quick reference for commonly seen inpatient obstetric and gynecological issues. Some of the currently available resources do not include specific medications, dosages and interventions that are needed at the point of care. Frequently, there is not enough time to read an article through a large reference when there is a patient need that requires an immediate response. The book serves as a reference and a simple starting point to assist in making an initial decision.
The book contains the information to cover common inpatient cases seen on obstetrics and gynecology inpatient rounds. Sample orders and notes are included to help the provider and physician-in-training to focus on the points that are important to address.
The book is organized by topic and addresses wide differential diagnosis concerns and specific diagnostic work-up for common patient presentations.
The book attempts to point the clinician in the proper initial direction to assist in disposition, initial management and initial patient work-up.
