Fracture Classifications in Clinical Practiceby Seyed Behrooz Mostofi (Author)Product descriptionReviewFrom the reviews: “This book is devoted to the description of the most widely used classifications of the most frequent fractures in clinical practice. It is easy to read and to use. This book will be very useful first of all for the trauma residents but also for more experienced trauma surgeons. For each type of fracture one or several classifications are described. All classifications are illustrated by a very clear and simple drawing.” (Didier Mainard, European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Vol. 19, 2009)From the Back CoverChanges in medical teaching mean that junior doctors have greater responsibilities in the clinical management of patients. However, few residents on rotation to emergency departments have significant experience in orthopaedics and this makes the recognition and accurate identification of fractures and their treatment a challenging task.This concise and practical handbook contains a wealth of illustrations and explanatory text organized into a concise repository of information on fractures according to the most widely used classification systems. Readers can therefore use this book to assist in making a correct diagnosis using the appropriate criteria, while simplifying the planning of further management and ensuring that communication with experienced staff is more effective.About the AuthorSeyed Behrooz Mostofi, BSc, MBBS, MS (Orth) is Specialist Registrar in Orthopaedics in South Thames Deanery.
