I got this thinking it would contain useful guidelines for myself and my new ARNP (in an office practice), but found much of the book to consist of admitting orders, and the rest not particularly useful.
The discusion of hypertension, for example, consists of 3/4 page, does briefly discuss workup of newly dx HTN, and lists drugs and dosages - but NOT any recommendations for which drug to use in which patient, and no mention of guideline such as JNC-6.
The one page on active TB discusses workup and treatment regimens, but NOT possible hepatotoxicity of drugs, and NO discusion of which patients would be more likely to have resistant disease.
It seems to essentially be a FP version of the "Wash Manual" (Washington Manual of Therapeutics), and as such is appropriate for FP housestaff, but NOT for experienced clinicians, midlevel providers, or those doing only outpatient medicine.
