Synopsis

Core Clinical Cases guides you to think of the patient as a whole, rather than as a sequence of unconnected symptoms. With its practical approach strongly linked to underlying theory, the series integrates your knowledge with the realities of managing clinical problems, and provides a basis for developing problem-solving skills.
The core areas of undergraduate study are covered in a logical sequence of learning activities: each case is followed by a detailed answer, along with a number of OSCE-style questions to help you practise for the exam. Related OSCE counselling style questions and answers also feature at the end of each section.
Key concepts and important information are highlighted, and the reader-friendly layout reflects exactly the type of question you will encounter, making the perfect revision aid for all types of case-based examination.
This book will be a useful revision aid for undergraduates preparing for the OSCE in Obstetrics & Gynaecology. The clinical cases are written in OSCE format and provide an invaluable opportunity for the reader to link basic understanding of the subject to the clinical setting. The Clinical cases covered will reflect the core curriculum in Obs & Gynae and will mimic the kind of cases students would hope to encounter during their clinical training. 60 clinical cases will be covered with colour photographs and line diagrams used to illustrate the cases.
