Essentials of Medical Microbiology, 5/E for MBBS Students, NEET PG, INI-CET & FMGE Aspirants | Free Complimentary Question Bank | Hospital Infection Control & COVID-19 Chapter: 1

Essentials of Medical Microbiology, 5th Edition brings you a thoroughly revised, edited, and updated textbook prepared strictly on the framework of infective syndromes, in line with the Revised Competency-based Medical Education Curriculum (NMC). The book is organized into two parts — General Microbiology, Immunology and Hospital Infection Control, followed by Systemic Microbiology arranged across eight sections. Each Systemic Microbiology section opens with a dedicated chapter on the relevant clinical infective syndrome before covering the etiological agents in detail, so you move from the bedside presentation to the causative organism the way you'll be tested. You'll find concise, bulleted, to-the-point text designed to save time during MBBS examination revision, alongside separate summary boxes for laboratory diagnosis and treatment, and clinical case-based essay questions and MCQs at the end of every chapter. The General Microbiology section has been restructured with overview chapters and dedicated general virology, general parasitology and general mycology chapters, while general bacteriology is consolidated into a single chapter with subchapters for easier reference. Hospital Infection Control coverage is updated on HAI types, antimicrobial stewardship monitoring, escalation versus de-escalation strategy, and PPE donning/doffing with transmission-based precautions. Parasitology topics, the COVID-19 chapter, recent advances in diagnosis, treatment and vaccine prophylaxis (with focus on tuberculosis and HIV), and epidemiology updates on outbreaks and Indian geographical distribution are all revised for current relevance, drawing on the latest editions of Harrison, Mandell, and Bailey & Scott, plus CDC, WHO, ICMR, NCDC, NTEP, NACO, NVBDCP and GPEI guidelines. Comes with a complimentary chapter-wise question bank booklet covering long essays, short notes, case scenario-based questions, reasoning-type questions, and direct as well as case-scenario MCQs, as recommended by NMC Clinical Infective Syndrome chapters open every Systemic Microbiology section, linking bedside presentation directly to the causative organisms Expanded use of tables, flowcharts, real images and schematic diagrams throughout for faster visual understanding Dedicated, updated Hospital Infection Control section covering antimicrobial stewardship, PPE protocols and transmission-based precautions Written by Dr Apurba S Sastry and Dr Sandhya Bhat, practicing microbiologists and hospital infection control specialists with decades of combined teaching and clinical experience
