Very helpful for reviews, and even basics, on a topic that is very vital for dental professionals to keep up on. May possibly use another update since the topic needs to be kept current such as in the areas of diabetes and heart problems. Looking forward to the next edition!

This book is a really excellent review and reference to keep on hand. It also has full color flow charts and the new CPR guidelines indexed at the back. Fantastic resource to have in any office, especially those that handle elderly patients, or provide IV sedation.

The best source on the theme. A must read for all involved dentists. An brilliant review of the things we all learned in dental school but may have forgotten.

Dr. Malamed’s book sets the standard for administration emergencies in the dental office; I remember it from my oral surgery rotation in 1985-86. Nearly anyone knows his name and this book shows why! Buy it and read it before it is needed (at an inopportune time)!
