Book Review


I felt a sense of impending despondency when I first looked inside the front cover and discovered this book is ‘….useful to doctors and nurses based on the intensive care unit.’ Yet I read on. Ok, so this was only the preface so perhaps I should have demonstrated more literary ‘nouse’ and at least got to the contents page! Here, at least, some key themes of paramedic practice appear in the form of assessment and stabilisation and the ever-present airway, breathing and circulatory assessment.
