This first edition of "Single Best Answer Questions in
Cardiothoracic Surgery" provides a comprehensive revision aid to
the candidates taking the specialty examination in Cardiothoracic
Surgery world-wide. This new revision aid provides over 300 single
best answer practice questions in Cardiothoracic Surgery and
conforms to the recent changes in the format of specialty
examinations in Cardiothoracic Surgery. Each question has been
carefully formulated to cover an important topic in cardiothoracic
surgery. The questions cover the complete specialty examination
syllabus and a considerable number of these have been based on
previous examination questions. This book contains a substantial
number of patient-based questions or clinical vignettes that will
enable prospective candidates to test their ability to integrate
key basic science concepts with relevant clinical problems. In
addition factual recall questions have also been included that
probe for basic recall of facts. Detailed and comprehensive
explanations, rather than just brief answers, to questions have
been provided so that the candidates do not have to consult
textbooks for clarification as is the case with most other MCQs
books currently available in the market. A list of relevant
references is provided at the end of each answer to enable
candidates to read the most up to date journal articles on the
subject. The questions in this book can be used in a number of
ways: (1) as a diagnostic tool (pretest), (2) as a guide and focus
for further study, and (3) for self-assessment. The least effective
use of these questions is to "study" them by reading them one at a
time, and then looking at the correct response. These over 300
practice questions are intended to be an integral part of a
well-planned review as well as an isolated resource. If used
appropriately, these questions can provide self-assessment
information beyond a numeric score. Furthermore, the questions have
been planned in such a way that this book can be used as companion
to any textbook of Cardiothoracic Surgery.
