FRCEM INTERMEDIATE

A new updated edition of the FRCEM Intermediate SAQ. This 2020 edition of the revised material has been updated to include new and revised guidelines, correct typographical errors and reference all chapters as recommended by readers. It replaces the 2019 edition.

The Royal University Emergency examinations are no easy task. Anyone who has been through the process knows the extensive knowledge one needs to accumulate for these exams. The new edition of SAQ intermediate comes at a crucial time in preparation for these exams.

This is a constantly and rapidly evolving branch of medicine. Emergency medicine practitioners need to make quick and efficient decisions and take carefully calculated risks, but this can only be done with a solid knowledge base. And that is precisely what the University emphasises: whether we, as emergency physicians, can make the right decision when it matters.

The new edition of this book seeks to do just that, to prepare you on that journey to the exam by providing concise and specific points on all the topics covered in the Royal University syllabus. With new guidelines being published all the time and treatment and drug therapy constantly evolving, it has been my constant endeavour to keep up with these changes.
