Clinicians undergoing competency testing, certification, and
periodic recertification are frequently faced with computer-based
exams designed to evaluate clinical acumen and judgment. Test
questions often include an image or radiograph followed by a
vignette of the clinical encounter and a series of questions.
Designed to better prepare practitioners for image-intense,
computer-based examinations in their respective fields, Atlas of
Human Poisoning and Envenoming is a visual and written reminder of
the ubiquitous sources of toxins and toxoids in the environment and
the outcomes of accidental or intentional toxic exposures in
humans. The Second Edition has been restructured with bulleted
text, tables, and figures resembling the vignettes that accompany
national examinations. Combining the four specialties of
toxicology-analytical, medical, environmental, and industrial-into
one comprehensive atlas, the book presents photographs and diagrams
of toxic plants and animals, their mechanisms of poisoning or
envenoming, and the human responses caused by toxic exposure.
Highlights of the new edition include: Prescription and illicit
drug abuse epidemics Environmental and occupational
nephrotoxicology and neurotoxicology Tick paralysis Petrochemical
toxicants Biological, chemical, and radiological warfare agents
Workplace substance abuse screening and monitoring Epidemiological
design and statistical analysis of toxicological investigations The
book is conveniently divided into four sections covering general
medical toxicology, environmental toxicology, industrial and
occupational toxicology, and epidemiology and statistics for
toxicology. Supplemented with a 16-page color insert, the second
edition includes new images and tables. The atlas will be a useful
study guide for a range of practitioners preparing for a lifetime
of image-intense national examinations.
