Purchase options and add-ons

Patient assessment and management combine to create an interwoven sequence of events that requires paramedics to perform a systematic assessment of the patient and determine what treatment is most appropriate and when it needs to be given. Trauma Case Studies for the Paramedic contains 20 case studies representing a variety of trauma emergencies that paramedics may encounter in the field. Trauma Case Studies for the Paramedic is intended to reinforce the importance of a systematic patient assessment and management approach to paramedic students by presenting them with trauma emergencies that they are likely to encounter. A superb supplement to classroom and textbook learning, this book allows the reader to practice applying knowledge to cases before actually going on an emergency call.

A good purchase to test your knowledge and learn a thing or two at the same time.

Reviewed in the United States on 26 December 2010

I purchased this book as another resource to help me through paramedic class. This series of book offers pediatric, medical, and trauma cases. We have not yet covered any of these topics extensively, however I picked up the trauma version as it was the lowest priced on amazon to see if I'd be willing to spend the money on the others in the series. This book starts off by giving you the scenario as if you're being dispatched to a call, it then asks you questions your considerations and treatment throughout the duration of the call from the time of dispatch to when the patient is at the hospital. The book provides you with all of the information you would obtain throughout your assessment and asks you questions about the patient's condition, suspected injuries, treatments, etc. It's literally as if you're on scene of the call. After each scenario are detailed answers to all of the questions which were asked followed by a very informative summary of the incident. All in all you're getting 20 different trauma situations in this book from routine dispatches to mass casualty incidents. I would highly recommend this book as an additional resource to help you not only in paramedic class, but to refine your mental skills on a trauma and maybe give you consideration of a few things you may not have thought about while on similar calls while out on the trucks. I wouldn't recommend this as a primary study book as it will not give you all of the neccessary knowledge to nail every trauma question on the national registry test, but as a way to test your knowledge for the real world, while boosting your trauma score on the registry test.

My students love it

Reviewed in the United States on 1 August 2007

I bought this book for my paramedic students to use during open lab/study hall(usually one or two students at time). They love it. Once the word got out about the book several of them purchased it for themselves, along with the Medical Case Studies For the Paramedic book. All our medic students have street EMT exprience and say the book is as close as you can get to real life simluations without actually jumping on the back of an ambulance and heading to the scene. I usually set up the truama mannequins for the medics-to-be to 'treat' as they work through the scenarios in the book. It's the perfect compliment to what they are taught in class and in their practical laboratory classes. One student said "It helps me cement what I have learned".

Good training for medics!

Reviewed in the United States on 4 February 2018

I like the way these books give you the scenario first so you can think about it BEFORE they break down the proper procedures. Helps you to check your knowledge and also train others by reading to them from the book. I used it this way in Iraq as a medical sergeant in 2010-2011.
