This excellent book is a ready pocket reference for all health care professionals involved in the management of trauma patients. Designed for rapid on-the-spot information retrieval, The Trauma Manual guides the trauma team through every aspect of patient care after injury -- from prehospital care, to resuscitation, to treatment of specific organ injuries, priorities in the intensive care unit, and management of special situations. Flow charts, sequential lists, and tables are used throughout the book to facilitate quick clinical decision-making. Included are algorithms for evaluation and resuscitation of the trauma patient based on stability and mechanism of injury. More than 100 illustrations demonstrate specific injuries, procedures, and techniques. Appendices include a drug formulary, the Organ Injury Scales, and commonly used formulae and equations.
