The significantly expanded second edition of this full-color
atlas provides a step-by-step, visual guide to the most common
procedures in emergency medicine. Completely revised, it also includes
new procedures such as REBOA, the HINTS test, sphenopalatine ganglion
block, occipital nerve block, and lung ultrasonography.
Procedures
are described on a single page, or two-page spreads, so that the
physician can quickly access and review the procedure at hand. The atlas
contains more than 700 diagnostic algorithms, schematic diagrams, and
photographic illustrations to highlight the breadth and depth of
emergency medicine. Topics are logically arranged by anatomic location
or by type of procedure, and all procedures are based on the most
current and evidence-based practices.
Atlas of Emergency Medicine Procedures, Second Edition
is an essential resource for physicians and advanced practice
professionals, residents, medical students, and nurses in emergency
medicine, urgent care, and pediatrics.
