Summary

The 5 Minute Toxicology Consult is a reliable rapid access guide to assessing and treating poisoned patients. Designed and organised for quick consultation and focused on practical clinical issues, the book covers the full range of chemicals, medications, natural compounds, adverse interactions, and patient presentations with toxicologic causes. Each chapter is divided into standard categories flagged by icons - Basics, Diagnosis, Signs/Symptoms, Treatment, Follow-up , and Pitfalls . An entire section is devoted to evaluating patients with suspected but unidentified poisoning. At least two experienced, board certified, practicing emergency physicians and toxicologists were involved in the editing of every chapter.
