      abstract = {Medical emergencies due to disorders of the endocrine  system represent a unique category of clinical care.  Hypotension, fever, palpitations, confusion, and  electrolyte abnormalities are all signs of disparate  endocrine emergencies that require immediate diagnoses and  treatment. Recognition of endocrine emergencies will  frequently lead to rapid improvement and stabilization of  the patient. Now in a revised and expanded second edition  including the latest clinical guidelines and protocols,  Endocrine Emergencies serves as a handy single reference  for any endocrinologist, internist, hospitalist, and  emergency medicine physician to rapidly identify and  initiate treatment. Topics covered include acute adrenal  insufficiency, diabetic ketoacidosis, thyroid storm,  hyponatremia, and myxedema coma, among many others. Each  chapter opens with a precis that provides, in a single  page, a presentation of symptoms, workup, and therapy. This  serves as a rapid, off the shelf cue to immediately begin a  differential diagnoses and therapy plan. The remainder of  each chapter is an in-depth review of the pathophysiology,  diagnoses, and management of the disease process. Book  chapters are written by experts in the field and reflect  the consensus and standard of care for specific endocrine  emergencies. Updated with the latest clinical evidence and  treatment options, Endocrine Emergencies remains a valuable  resource for practitioners in endocrinology and internal  medicine, as well as emergency room physicians, hospital  support staff, fellows and residents.},
