About this title

Synopsis

In late 1996, the format of the examinations for surgical trainees in the UK will change. The existing FRCS diploma examination will be replaced by a new MRCS (Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons) qualification. These changes will be phased in over a period of time. The first major change will be in the existing Part I Applied Basic Sciences examination, which will now consist of two MCQ papers covering both basic and clinical aspects of surgery. This book consists of more than 400 questions covering basic surgical sciences and clinical general surgery in an integrated fashion. As well as all the major areas of surgery, other topics covered include pre-operative assessment, anaesthesia, intensive care, trauma, surgical oncology and post-operative complications. Short answers to all the questions are included. Although designed for candidates for postgraduate surgical examinations, others, such as senior undergraduates and GPs, should also find the book useful in preparing for examinations, as well as for continuing education.
