1000 Q&As provide the preparation you need to ace the pain medicine board exams and anesthesiology recertification!
"The book is meant for all physicians who are practicing interventional pain medicine. It is certainly a very helpful book for any pain fellow getting ready for board examinations....There are other pain review books available...but none as useful as this book is in preparing readers for the pain boards. 3 Stars."--Doody's Review Service
McGraw-Hill Specialty Board Review: Pain Medicine is the perfect way to prepare for the American Board of Anesthesiology exam as well as exams given by the American Board of Pain Medicine and the American Academy of Pain Medicine. It's also great for recertification! You'll find everything you need in one comprehensive review . . . questions, answers, explanations, practice tests, and references.
Here's why this book is the ultimate anesthesiology board review tool:
- 1000 questions and answers with detailed explanations for correct and incorrect answers
- The number of questions per topic reflects the make-up of the actual exam -- so you know you're putting the most amount of study time into what's most important
- Answers are referenced to major pain medicine texts
- Questions duplicate the style and format of the ABA exam

It's readily apparent the authors were busy in their clinical careers... so much so that they neglected to spend any time proofreading this book. It's a typical "write some random questions and we'll call it a board review book to make ourselves famous" book by physicians. There are numerous wrong answers to simplistic and redundant questions. There are so many wrong answers that, as one reviewer mentioned, they are often easy to spot; however, in the course of 800+ questions, do you really want to have to recheck answers in textbooks and other sources to verify their accuracy? I didn't appreciate it and wished I had known this prior to using this. In spite of this book, I easily passed the pain boards. Final words of advice: 1. Use a different pain review book(but alas, they all have their faults) and 2. You're better off reading a pain textbook and simple MRI book for the pain boards if you have the time.By jsmith
Appalling inaccuracies in many areas. Questions are plain wrong in many areas. I made it 1/10 through the book and found at least 3 wrong answers cited as correct in this text. This thing was clearly not reviewed or edited by anyone academic, and hence can't be trusted. I run a pain medicine lecture program for a fellowship and would never recommend this book.By PainMaestro
