内容説明

An authoritative, yet concise reference book for medical personnel facing the problems of managing the victims of ballistic trauma, working under the arduous conditions of war but more commonly in everyday situations in hospitals. Ballistic trauma is becoming an increasingly important area as every A&E department is presented with victims of civil violence more frequently than ever before, and during times of war all those involved in military surgery have to manage victims. Therefore this book aims to bring together the science behind, and the management of, ballistic trauma. The intention is to provide surgeons with an understanding of the fundamentals of this area and its mechanisms and some insight into the significance of new weapons as well as the variations on the principles of management. 'Ballistic Trauma' will enable the clinician facing a clinical problem to feel sufficiently informed as to make coherent choices appropriate to the circumstances.
