This little book has been written primarily for the senior house
officer in Accident and Emergency and the registrar pursuing a
career in the specialty. I hope also that it will be of interest to
medical students. Thanks to the initiative of Professor Miles
Irving, Professor of Surgery, University of Manchester, medical
students have been taught Accident and Emergency in Hope Hospital
since 1974. Many of the answers to the questions here have been
elaborated as a result of their enquiring minds. It has been a
pleasure to teach them. MCQs should be informative and entertaining
and not regarded as a tiresome chore merely because of self
assessment scoring. I have omitted the boxes and the "don't know"
response. The answers are either true or false. I have attempted to
slot the questions into various sections with some degree of
sequence, but there is an inevitable overlap particularly with
regard to the sections on the unresponsive patient, poisoning and
injury. The final section is a selected mixture of Accident and
Emergency and I thought "Pot pourri" an appropriate title. I have
enjoyed compiling the questions and I hope that both undergraduates
and postgraduates will find reading them a painless and worthwhile
exercise. Finally my thanks are due to my secretary Eileen Bates
for her typing and patience."
