As societies become more complex and interconnected, the global
risk for catastrophic disasters is increasing. Demand for expertise
to mitigate the human suffering and damage these events cause is
also high. A new field of disaster medicine is emerging, offering
innovative approaches to optimize disaster management. Much of the
information needed to create the foundation for this growing
specialty is not objectively described or is scattered among
multiple different sources. This definitive work brings together a
coherent and comprehensive collection of scientific observations
and evidence-based recommendations with expert contributors from
around the globe. This book identifies essential subject matter,
clarifies nomenclature, and outlines necessary areas of proficiency
for healthcare professionals handling mass casualty crises. It also
describes in-depth strategies for the rapid diagnosis and treatment
of victims suffering from blast injuries or exposure to chemical,
biological, and radiological agents.
