Advanced Trauma for the Transport Professional includes operational and clinical components for managing the trauma patient. Operational considerations include transport safety and physiology, as well as stress/critical incident management and legal considerations. Initial and ongoing care of the trauma patient including assessments and interventions are addressed via a systems approach, followed by a balanced discussion of current management strategies. Special considerations in trauma care such as delayed trauma transport, trauma in pregnant and pediatric patients as well as burn trauma are reviewed. The appendices present valuable information on transport personnel health and well-being and issues associated with repatriation. A brief review of imaging studies common in critical transport is also included. This resource is a must-have reference for any provider who transports trauma patients. Included as a separate resource is the Advanced Skills Guide outlining TPATC Airway and Invasive Skills procedures.

If you are registered for either the Online or In Person TPATC, this book is included in the registration fee.
