INTERNATIONAL TRAUMA LIFE SUPPORT FOR EMERGENCY CARE PROVIDERS 2018

"The eighth edition of the ITLS textbook, International Trauma Life Support for Emergency Care Providers, has been updated to provide the emergency care provider with information on the latest and most e ective approaches to the care of the trauma patient. The science of trauma is constantly evolv- ing, and the research working group at ITLS has worked to bring to the authors and the text information that is perti- nent to the initial care of the trauma patient. One of the biggest changes in this edition is that Dr. Roy Alson has joined Dr. John Campbell as co-editor in chief. Dr. Alson is a board-certified EM and EMS physician with extensive experience in EMS care and education and has been a contributor to the ITLS text and course for over 25 years. The text again conforms to the latest AHA/ILCOR guide- lines for artificial ventilation and CPR. The case presenta- tions used in many of the chapters draw upon a single scenario as an effort to have the illustrative cases used reflect a more realistic situation. Although trauma can result in single-system injuries, major trauma victims often have multiple organ systems or body areas involved, and these must all be assessed and stabilized. The text continues the presentation of Key Terms and updates of photos and drawings as needed. There is now also a new student and instructor resource Web site, which provides additional information beyond the core material of ITLS."
