This textbook offers Paramedics and advanced providers a complete course covering all the skills necessary for rapid assessment, resuscitation, stabilization, and transportation of the trauma patient. The fourth edition has been updated and revised to include the latest information on spinal trauma, thoracic trauma, pediatrics, head trauma, airway management, bloodborne pathogens, multicasualty incidents and triage. It also covers three new skills: using a pulse oximeter, a laryngeal mask airway, and the new adult intraosseous infusion device.
