Description
Performing well and learning effectively during your clinical rotations in general surgery are challenges you face everyday. They are
equally important in caring for patients and earning the grade. Time constraints and last minute assignments in the OR make reading the
necessary material difficult and can jeopardize your evaluation by senior residents and attendings on your rotation. This title in the
Gowned and Gloved series provides a concise review of the most common surgical procedures and relevant surgical anatomy to help you shine
in the OR without getting bogged down in theory and extraneous information typical of more expansive text books. It provides the edge
you need in the OR, delivering not only the information necessary to do well during your rotation, but also a plan on how to maximize
your time, make the best impression, and ace your rotation.
