Dr. Brackett's Bookcase

Here are some of the resources that might be in Dr. Brackett's bookcase (that is, if he hasn't retired by the year 2000). Although the Internet as we know it did not exist at the time of Emergency!, and no one at Rampart will be online for another 20 years or so, we are allowing them to experience the joys of time travel by posting these following online references and resources:

The Merck Manual (home edition: not too technical)

David Baldwin's Trauma Information Pages

eMedicine Online Text: Emergency Medicine

Emergency Medicine and Primary Care Home Page

Emergency Medical Services for Children

Medical Matrix Emergency Medicine (free registration required)

National Center for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)

Virtual ER: Where Emergency Medicine Meets the Internet

Weekly Web Review in Emergency Medicine

Multimedia Medical Reference Library

Dr. Brackett wouldn't need to use this next site (he knows all these words already!), but it can be useful for us liberal-arts people: Medspeak: the language of ER (Note: as it was compiled by ER fans, some of the slang terms in this list may be more recent than Emergency! vintage.)

In addition, Mary Morris, RN, has compiled an enormous list of medical references at her Code Red site.
