Master this practical, illustrated guide to everyday surgical care.
This edition focuses on the less serious, after-hours problems a clinician will encounter, with clear, step‑by‑step guidance to help you treat minor injuries confidently.
Originally designed for the general practitioner, the book compiles the essential techniques used in minor surgery, from wound care and bandaging to early management of common injuries. A new chapter on general anesthesia adds practical, non‑technical guidance for safely administering vapor anesthetics when an anesthetist isn’t immediately available. The aim is to empower non‑specialists to provide solid, competent care in clinical and hospital settings.
Ideal for readers of general practice, early surgeons, and medical students seeking a reliable, hands‑on reference for everyday surgical problems.
