This book provides the basis of prevention, identification, and long-term management of survivable medical conditions and can be performed with minimal training. It helps you identify sources of materials you will need and should stock-pile, it discusses storage issues, and directs you to sources for more complex procedures that require advanced concepts of field-expedient techniques used by trained medical persons such as surgeons, anesthesiologists, dentists, or midwifes and obstetricians.
If you don't have medical education and training already this book can't help you, in fact, it can hurt you. If you do, then it could be a good reference.
ReplyDeleteI recommend attending class for Stop The Bleed, CPR, or even an EMT at the local college.
DeleteSTB is free. CPR by Red Cross is free or low cost.
My wife is a wound care nurse. She has her tools, medications, etc. I may buy this book, but if she can't fix me or get me to a hospital, I'm pretty much screwed.
