  • The third edition of the Color Atlas of Emergency Trauma brings the reader to the bedside of patients with traumatic injuries, at one of the largest and busiest trauma centers in North America. It includes over 1200 images, designed as a comprehensive visual and reference guide to emergency trauma care. Organized by major body regions, this atlas explores the full spectrum of common and uncommon traumatic injuries, including those caused by firearms, stab wounds, blunt trauma, crush injury, and burns. It also covers special patient groups, such as pregnant, pediatric and geriatric populations. Each chapter is augmented with patient images at presentation, radiographic, intraoperative and autopsy images, and color illustrations and photographs showing key anatomy from the cadaver laboratory. With common pitfalls discussed and invaluable tips from a multidisciplinary group of experienced trauma care providers, this book is a useful and practical resource for all those involved in trauma care.

Surgical Critical Care
  • For the MRCS OSCE
  • 3rd edition
  • Mazyar Kanani, Simon Lammy
  • Published online:
    05 February 2021

    04 February 2021
  • This updated book continues the ABCDE chapter format from the second edition, incorporating an escalating level of diagnostic and management complexity and a concise bibliography in each chapter. It remains demarcated into two sections: the first (e.g. ABCDE chapters) equips surgical trainees in managing non-ICU-based patients, whilst the second provides a basic introduction to ICU care. The chapters introduce standard definitions, pathological processes, diagnostic features and common management plans. These are based on a range of updated recommended guidelines from NICE and SIGN and common ALS principles in critical care patients, as well as current ATLS® and CCrISP® standards. The most common causes of systemic complications in surgical patients are explained, e.g. updated sections on sepsis and major haemorrhage protocols, to name but a few. A must-have revision guide for all surgical trainees, from final-year medical students through to junior surgical registrars.

  • Summary

    Blood pressure can be measured non-invasively (NIBP), e.g. sphygmomanometer or invasively by direct cannulation of a peripheral artery, e.g. invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring (see Arterial Lines: Intra-Arterial Blood Pressure Monitoring later in this chapter). The latter provides a continuous waveform trace after attachment to an electronic pressure transducer.

  • Chapter 6 - Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

  • from Section 2 - Intensive Care (Level 3)
  • Mazyar Kanani, Simon Lammy

  • Summary

    Thus, there is a potential reduction in the level of consciousness but retention of verbal communication. There is much variability in which permutations of these enhance individual agent effects. From a practical perspective, in ICU, they are used to permit tolerance of endotracheal tubes, oral suction and other bedside procedures.

  • Chapter 1 - Airway

  • from Section 1 - Ward Care (Level 0–2)
  • Mazyar Kanani, Simon Lammy
  • Book:
    Surgical Critical Care
    Published online:
    05 February 2021
    Print publication:
    04 February 2021, pp 3-21

  • Summary

    These simple methods are often unsuccessful when airway obstruction is caused by loss of muscle tone in the pharynx. Always check for intervention success after each manoeuvre using the Look, Listen and Feel sequence.
