The Quick Guide Laboratory Series

AACC Press is pleased to announce a new edition of its best-selling Quick Guide—Quick Guide to Testing, Second Edition. The Guide outlines the most common hemorrhagic and thrombotic conditions together with their respective assays to emphasize correct laboratory evaluation. Treatment discussions include the prophylactic and therapeutic application of non-biological, synthetic, and human blood-derived components to control bleeding, and the use of antithrombotics designed to prevent or resolve arterial and venous occlusions. The emphasis is on proper dosing and valid laboratory monitoring of hemostatic therapy.

The 4"×6" Quick Guides, authored by leading laboratory medicine practitioners from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, are quick-access, readily available pocket references for house staff of all specialties, nurses, pharmacists, and medical technologists. The four Guides are useful adjunct texts for medical, nursing, pharmacy, and medical technology students. All four Guides demonstrate how to order and interpret diagnostic laboratory tests and how to monitor therapy. The Quick Guide to Transfusion Medicine also explains donor and transfusion management, apheresis, and the use of red blood cells, plasma, cryoprecipitate, and concentrates.
