The cutting edge in medical training for wilderness rescue and self
care "Wilderness First Responder" is a comprehensive text for the
recognition, treatment, and prevention of backcountry emergencies.
It's essential reading for wilderness educators, trip leaders,
guides, search and rescue groups, and anyone who works or plays far
from definitive medical care. This invaluable resource includes
expert, step-by-step instructions, clear illustrations, and "Signs
and Symptoms" sidebars designed to help anyone provide immediate
care in the wilderness--whenever they are more than an hour away
from an ambulance or a hospital. It shows how to conduct a patient
assessment, improvise when ideal materials are not handy, and
decide whether or not to evacuate a patient. Readers will learn how
to assess and treat: Airway obstructions Cardiac arrest External
and internal bleeding Shock Spine injuries Head injuries Chest
injuries Abdominal injuries Fractures and dislocations Athletic
injuries Soft-tissue injuries Cold- or heat-induced injuries
Altitude sickness Insect bites & stings Diabetic emergencies
Poisoning emergenciesAllergic reactions and anaphylaxisAnd much,
much more
