Trauma Case Studies for the Paramedic: .

by American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS)

Trauma Case Studies for the Paramedic contains 20 case studies representing a variety of trauma emergencies, some more life-threatening than others, that the paramedic may encounter in the field. Each case study begins by presenting dispatch information and a general impression of the patient upon arrival at the scene. Then, as the case progresses, pertinent patient information is provided, interspersed with a series of questions designed to test paramedics' knowledge of the patient's specific injury or injuries.

Fun stuff. You can play along and see if you were right about the diagnoses by the case studies presented. Nifty!

Good for writing traumatic scenes so you know what s&s a victim would present with.
