The new edition of this successful handbook provides a balance of
evidence-based information on Genitourinary Medicine (GUM),
including HIV/AIDS. It provides high quality, digestible clinical
detail and also practical information on the ever-increasing
medico-legal, ethical, and procedural issues of growing importance
when dealing with these complex topics. Designed primarily for the
trainee in GUM, it is also a valuable reference and resource for
the specialist physician, nurse, and other professionals working in
the field of sexual health. The new edition remains relevant to
those working in this field and features practical enhanced
sections on contraception and genital dermatology written by
specialist contributors, and information for general practitioners
in order to provide services for STIs. The book consists of three
easy-to-follow sections. The first section deals with routine
management within GUM; medico-legal and ethical issues, the
standard patient, special situations, and routine clinical and
laboratory processes that include simple flow chart guidance on
common clinical presentations. The second section details GUM
conditions in a disease-orientated style, including STIs and also
other genitourinary problems that may present. The third section on
HIV provides a contemporary epidemiological overview of this
infection, basic viral biology and pathogenesis, a
disease-orientated description of conditions both directly related
and opportunistic, and their management and data on special
situations such as pregnancy. Finally guidance on commonly used
abbreviations is shown together with a useful resource directory
for staff. In essence this handbook provides a wealth of simple and
easy to follow information on STIs and the principles of providing
a service including administrative and medico-legal issues that are
sometimes difficult to locate. This book will be of global use to
all those with an interest in sexual health whatever their level of
expertise and wherever they may practice.
