Hematology Board Review: Blueprint Study Guide and Q&A is a concise, outline-based study guide covering all topics that appear on the Hematology Certification Exam. The book includes all topics listed in the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) blueprint as essential material for the exam and highlights topic areas that are often found on the test. For hematology and oncology fellows as well as practicing clinicians needing a refresher before taking MOC, this handy study guide provides succinct overviews of all blood disorders, syndromes and diseases with practice questions on the go. Each disorder or disease-based chapter provides the same structure for ease of use beginning with the epidemiology, and followed by the etiology and risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnostic criteria, indications for treatment, prognostic factors, treatment recommendations, and special considerations. The authors provide the most accurate and up-to-date information, including well-established treatment regimens for a variety of blood disorders, including iron disorders, bone marrow failure syndromes, platelet and megakaryocytic disorders, hemostasis, thrombosis, and hematologic malignancies. Later chapters review other major subspecialty areas found on the exam including transfusion medicine and hematopoietic cell transplantation. With 200 board-style questions and answers with detailed rationales, Hematology Board Review is the go-to, quick review for any trainee preparing for initial certification and for hematologists or oncologists preparing for recertification. Key Features: Includes 200 board-style questions and answers with rationalesProvides key point summaries of each topic area for quick study and easy recallThorough coverage of hematologic malignancies, blood disorders, transfusion medicine, hematopoietic cell transplantation, and standard treatment regimensTables providing key data and information related to staging, treatment options,
