Description

The second edition of ABC of Prehospital Emergency Medicine provides a comprehensive guide to the rapidly evolving field of prehospital emergency medicine. Written by a team of experienced prehospital practitioners, this book covers operational, clinical, and system considerations, as well as evidence-based practice and expert opinion. The guide includes a thorough introduction to prehospital emergency medicine, covering topics such as activation and deployment, personal protective equipment, and scene safety and assessment. It also explores the primary survey, airway, breathing, and circulation assessments, as well as prehospital anesthesia, analgesia, sedation, monitoring, and ultrasound. The book also covers the management of medical, trauma, and psychiatric emergencies, as well as special considerations for certain patient groups, such as the elderly, obstetric, pediatric, and bariatric patients. This book is ideal for paramedics, doctors, nurses, and other prehospital practitioners, as well as those undertaking subspecialty PHEM training, studying for postgraduate prehospital degree modules, or preparing for PHEM exams.
