Items related to ABC of Major Trauma
Synopsis
This ABC is a comprehensive guide to the management of the multiply injured patient during the first two hours after injury. All life threatening problems are dealt with, the chapters being written by experts in various specialities and those who have day-to-day experience of treating patients with trauma in the accident and emergency department. Also covered are subjects related to the handling of accident victims and their transport to hospital and how to deal with major accidents.
The didactic approach is well suited to the subject as practical guidance must be clear and definite to avoid delay in urgent treatment. The editors and many of the contributors have been strongly influenced by the Advanced Trauma Life Support Programme of the American College of Surgeons, which was introduced in Britain by the Royal College of Surgeons of England in November 1988.
The guidelines given are relevant to all medical, paramedical and nursing staff who help in the management of patients from the moment of injury to eventual discharge.

Review
"The thinking behind the series is to provide a quick reference on the subject mostly for the benefit of non-specialists. The ABC series never pretends to be comprehensive texts. Neither are they ‘idiot's guides'! They are all well-presented and well-illustrated books printed on good quality paper. This particular book is in its third edition which no doubt reflects its popularity. It is a readable, authoritative book illustrated with good quality photographs, drawings and charts." (Anil Aggrawal's Internet Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, January-July 2011)
