Emergency Pathophysiology: Clinical Applications for Prehospital Care Providers is a concise textbook and working reference for prehospital care providers at all levels of training and practice. The book defines the pathological mechanisms underlying the specific disease states of interest to EMTs, and provides pharmacologic and management guidelines specific to the prehospital environment. It is written by a former EMTwho is now a physician, and designed to bridge the gap between the EMT and the physician in all acute and emergent conditions. Important clinical pitfalls and corrective measures are highlighted throughout the book, and self-test questions are provided with each chapter.
