Algorithms in Obstetrics and Gynaecology presents the core knowledge needed to tackle all situations in obstetrics and gynaecology, in a structured fashion. All algorithms are designed to support rapid decision making in the most clinically relevant situations to minimise the risks of a poor outcome. A range of clinical problems are covered from common non-life-threatening emergencies such as hyperemesis in pregnancy, to life-threatening acute events such as ectopic pregnancy, acute fetal distress or maternal collapse. Each topic is presented as either an algorithm, a care pathway, or table of key information and has been carefully structured to ensure a logical progression of thought to aid anticipation, early diagnosis and prompt and appropriate management. Accompanying key learning points highlight the essential information from the topic. Based on current national guidelines and clinical evidence, the algorithms and care pathways can be used as a reliable and practical resource for day to day practice in obstetrics and gynaecology.

This authoritative textbook provides a much-needed guide for postgraduate trainees preparing for the European Board and College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (EBCOG) Fellowship examination. Published in association with EBCOG, it fully addresses the competencies defined by the EBCOG curriculum and builds the clinical practice related to these competencies upon the basic science foundations. Volume 2 covers the depth and breadth of gynaecology, and draws on the specialist knowledge of four highly experienced Editors and over 100 contributors from across Europe, reflecting the high-quality training needed to ensure the safety and quality of healthcare for women. It incorporates key international guidelines throughout, along with colour diagrams and photographs for easy understanding. This is an invaluable resource, not only for postgraduate trainees planning to sit the EFOG examination, but also for practising specialists looking to update their knowledge and skills to meet the ever-evolving complexity of clinical practice.

Professional development skills encompass non-clinical attributes that contribute towards career development, research and high-quality clinical practice. Professional bodies such as the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (RCOG) are placing increasing importance on these skills and they now form part of the RCOG core curriculum, making these skills essential requirements for all junior doctors and newly appointed consultants in today's health service. This book is an in-depth review of professional development skills, illustrated by case-histories from obstetrics and gynaecology. Issues related to human factors - such as communication, situational awareness, decision-making and team-working - will form the basis of the book. Candidates sitting the Membership of the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (MRCOG) examination will gain a better understanding of the principles of professionalism and clinical governance within the specialty. This book is also a useful tool for trainees in their advanced years of training and for newly appointed consultants.
