Description:
This fourth edition, redesigned in the current ABC series style, offers more than just a design 'make-over'. While keeping the same goals as previously, it incorporates latest developments in each aspect of care. The emergency care conforms to currently used pre-hospital evacuation techniques and advanced trauma life support refinements. Neurological examination includes an up-to-date neurological assessment and classification of spinal cord injuries, with emphasis on making the correct early diagnosis in view of the current increase in litigation. Spinal cord trauma is potentially the most devastating consequence of injury to the spine. This well-established, practical guide provides a detailed overview from the scene of the accident to rehabilitation and discharge from hospital care. This latest edition has been substantially rewritten to include the most recent developments in practical management of patients with potential spine injury and risk-minimisation techniques.
