Description

From the simple to the complex, this visually stunning atlas guides you through more than 100 commonly performed emergency procedures in step-by-step detail. Each procedure includes a brief discussion of its indications, contraindications, equipment requirements, and complications and their management. Key to each discussion is the concise, yet detailed description of the procedure. Each procedure is followed by a discussion, including technical tips. Alternative techniques are offered throughout, providing the reader with a variety of options for a particular procedure.

  • Step-by-step text is on the page opposite the technique illustrations for ease of reference.
    • Details for each procedure include preparation and draping, anesthesia or sedation, performance of the procedure, and disposition.
  • Detailed line drawings are based on observation of procedures, drawn from the perspective of the physician.
    • Variations between field management vs. ED management are addressed throughout: e.g., defibrillation in the ED vs. defibrillation in wet environment such as rain or a near-drowning.
  • Technical pearls and pitfalls are offered for each procedure.

    • Spanish version also available, ISBN: 84-8174-600-2
