Focusing on essential medical assessment and management in isolated and extreme environments, this text goes beyond traditional wilderness training by teaching the underlying principles of procedures. It is designed for Wilderness First Responder and Wilderness EMT courses, equipping students with the necessary skills and confidence to handle emergency medical situations in remote areas. The emphasis on understanding the "why" behind the "how" enhances the learning experience for future medical responders.

A clear, practical first-aid guide for use in the wilderness. Early chapters explain general principles of wilderness medicine and the major body systems. Later chapters detail appropriate responses to injuries and conditions involving the bones and soft tissue, toxins and allergies, environmental medicine, and common symptoms and medical problems. Final chapters discuss medicine and medical supplies and wilderness rescue, evacuation, and helicopter safety. Includes case histories, a glossary, and b&w drawings.
