On Call Surgery, 4th Edition is a trusted, high-yield reference for anyone working in a surgical on-call setting. Written by Gregg A. Adams, Stephen D. Bresnick, Jared Forrester, and Graeme Rosenberg, this book focuses on the common and urgent problems encountered in the hospital when immediate decision-making is required.
The book is built around a logical, highly templated format that helps readers find key information quickly in time-sensitive situations. It covers the practical steps needed from the first phone call through bedside assessment, helping you determine urgency, identify major threats, avoid common mistakes, and choose the right next action.
This edition includes updated content on postoperative management, surgical complications, fluid and electrolyte balance, shock, hemorrhage, cardiovascular crises, bedside ultrasound, procedures, and an up-to-date drug formulary. With its compact size and easy-to-follow structure, it is an essential companion for fast, safe, and evidence-based surgical care.
