Ebook: Trauma Management (Vademecum)

This book is written to provide a resource for trauma physicians to become effective leaders in the ER and the OR and to train them to become educated collaborators in trauma decision-making. The diagnosis and management of trauma to all organ systems is described. Also specific problems, such as burns, inhalation injury, hypothermia, gunshot ballistics, transfusion, crush and blast injuries, and forensics, are addressed in separate chapters. The Editors and most of the contributors are affiliated with the Los Angeles County Hospital ER, one of the busiest trauma facilities in the U.S. This comprehensive spiral-bound handbook fits in the pocket of a hospital coat.
