Description

Pharmacologic intervention is a cornerstone of paramedic treatment. Paramedic: Pharmacology Applications covers the relevant issues of pharmacology as they relate to the field practice of the paramedic. The text gives students a comprehensive understanding of the indications, contraindications, and side effects of medications, as well as insight into the pathophysiology and etiology of conditions requiring rapid pharmacologic intervention. In addition, progressive case studies are found in each chapter. The cases follow patients from dispatch through delivery to the emergency department and cover every aspect of assessment and treatment. Each case study includes eight critical thinking questions. Important Notice: The digital edition of this book is missing some of the images or content found in the physical edition.
