Guidelines forever by Rodis Paparodis (Chicago, IL USA)

4 Stars
November 15, 2009
This is a nice and small pocketbook, including the evidenced based guidelines in almost all outpatient topics... It does not explain the why in everything written, but includes the reference study, website, article etc. It is a very diverse book, in that it does not focus in any specialty, but includes guidelines for vaccinations, cancer screenings, AAA, ADHD, metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis and contains also some algorithms in the management of outpatient diseases, eg. sore throat and many more I think that it is overall a good tool, consisting of tons of different things that could be useful in an ambulatory setting, outpatient clinic etc. It ios an interesting pocketbook, with no competition out there, so 4 stars is my rating
