簡介(Book Description from Amazon)：

Products purchased from 3rd Party sellers are not guaranteed by the Publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product. 

Wilderness EMS is designed for EMS providers and leaders who deliver medical care in the wilderness, and those practicing wilderness medicine as part of a formal team.
The textbook is a comprehensive, expertly-written reference ideal for this fast-changing and multidisciplinary specialty. This first-of-its-kind text provides specialized instruction and best practices for wilderness EMS practitioners and students – crucial information for the success of today’s rescue missions. A strong foundation in evidence-based medicine, clinical experience, and field applicability makes it especially useful for any EMS provider in a wilderness environment.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :

✯✯✯✯✯
Great book for any level of provider in remote environments, written by an incredible team of experts, and has plenty of color diagrams and photos! Whether you have basic wilderness first aid training, advanced life support, or are more highly trained as a clinician, the chapters for handling different situations from environmental hazards, trauma injuries, rescues etc. are clearly broken down by provider level so you only need to focus on the section on what your skills can be applied toward. As a zoologist who works in the wilderness and has extensive wilderness medicine training, this book is now a valuable addition to my references. One of the chapters that stood out most to me was the chapter on animal bites and envenomation by Dr. Benjamin Abo. I was quite impressed with how in depth the epidemiology and treatment of venomous and nonvenomous bites was, and the background on different families of venomous snakes that you don't see in the average book of this kind. Another important note from that chapter was on the prevention of animal bites that includes understanding the behaviors of the species in which you may encounter so that you can pick up on warning signs to avoid negative interactions to begin with. The other chapter that stood out is a topic that is by far neglected when it comes to working in remote settings. It is about the mental health of individuals in response to such extreme situations and the mental health of those first responders in those situations. Laura McGladrey does well at diving into this difficult but important concept. Highly recommend!
✯✯✯✯✯
Great text and one that I will use extensively going forward. It is well organized and covers the gamut of EMS topics in the wilderness. I teach wilderness medicine to a number of audiences and this textbook will be very useful as it breaks down recommended clinical care by level of certification/knowledge (First Aid and Basic Life Support, Advanced Life Support, and Clinician). It bridges the gap between pure wilderness medicine and EMS books and the more technical textbooks that I have on the shelf by discussing (in the technical rescue section) implications and difficulties of medical care in differing environments such as high angle, swiftwater, and open water environments.
✯✯✯✯✯
My goal in authoring chapter 7 on Wilderness EMT equipment was to provide the reader with a spectrum of advice highlighting both modern, highly back packable innovations, as well as tired-and-true improvisational techniques for the remote caregiver who must be self-reliant without the aid of modern transport support.

The reference is filled with the unique wisdom, experience and insight of long-time backcountry caregivers. It offers advice from professionals like myself (with fifty years of experience) as well as bright, new highly-trained and specialized outdoor experts, all of whom have come together to share their experience.

This is the first Wilderness EMS reference text enabling the reader to supplement their knowledge by harnessing the perspective of twenty Fellows of the Academy of Wilderness Medicine, five Wilderness Medicine School Directors and two of the rare Master Fellows of the Academy of Wilderness Medicine, Dr. Hawkins and I.
The editor Dr. Seth Hawkins has excelled in bringing together several uniquely-qualified, professional, full-time WEMS instructors such as myself for this purpose.
Finally, it’s important to note that the reference strives to provide perspectives from the more heavily populated Eastern United States as well as those from the more sparsely populated Western regions.

Great text, well organized. Helped me brush up on some cases that I hadn't seen in a while. Had at least two cases in my exam that were almost identical to the practice cases.

✯✯✯✯✯
This book is way better than the previous editions. It explains​ thoroughly and it has questions and answers on how you suppose to ask the patient and how the patient is going to answer. It is really helpful if you have someone to practice with.
✯✯✯✯✯
Very helpful book for the preparation of step 2 cs. Some of the questions that should be asked are very specific and by no chance I would have asked them without reading the book. Don`t forget to read the mini cases as they give you all you need to know for differential diagnosis. I also practiced with live and online study partners using this book and passed with high performance in all parts as an IMG. Good luck to everyone!

A very nice companion to any larger, heavier hardback pharmacotherapy/pharmacology textbook. Much easier to carry with you if you're on the go but need to bring along a written pharm book. Pleased with purchase.

This is great for therapeutics classes. You study the material than read the chapters in the book to review. It’s also a great reference on rotations, because the chapters and concise and only a few pages long.

Dermo neuro modulating

簡介(Book Description from Amazon)：

DermoNeuroModulating is a structured, interactive approach to manual therapy that considers the nervous system of the patient from skin cell to sense of self. Techniques are slow, light, kind, intelligent, responsive and effective. Positioning of limbs and trunk affects deeper nerve trunks (by shortening and widening their container), and is

combined with skin stretch directed toward cutaneous fields of nerves that branch outward into skin (which may draw neural structure further through its

container).

It is prudent to remember that manual handling of a patient’s physicality is only a small part of developing a complete therapeutic context for change—while

optional, it can also be optimal.

Customer Reviews from Amazon :

✯✯✯✯✯
DNM is a manual therapy approach which seems to be most consistent with modern pain science. As a Hellerwork Structural Integration practitioner I worked for years under the assumption that I was changing the structure of the body by manipulating fascia. Most research now refutes the idea that we can have any direct effect on structure whatsoever. Hellerwork is effective bodywork. That is not being questioned. The explanatory model however is incorrect it seems. Diane Jacobs is advancing the idea that none of us have ever effected any kind of change in the body through anything but the nervous system. By touching skin, we are connecting through the cutaneous nerves to the central nervous system and this communication is what helps the "patient" shift. She quite clearly lays out a new approach to working with another human being. The model is shifted from therapist as operator to therapist as interactor. This is an extraordinarily humanistic approach to therapy which helps build self-efficacy in the patient which is the most important factor in assuring change. This book is absolutely essential for every manual therapist.

✯✯✯✯✯
This should be required reading for anyone using their hands to help people in pain.
I've followed Diane's writings online and attended her course in person. This book takes all the best of her ideas and puts them in a very easy reading format, but at the same time includes copious references. For those that have attended Diane's course, the treatment section is very nearly identical to what is included in the more recent editions of the DNM course manual. But even having several variations on the manual I find the book (ebook in my case) to be a valuable addition. The beginning of the book gives an overview of principles, including numerous clinical pearls. For those that just want to learn enough to put this manual therapy framework "to work", the information in the beginning chapters will likely satisfy this desire. But I highly suggest reading to the end, as the principles are all repeated, in greater detail. The repetition increases and deepens understanding which is really what learning DNM is about. Understanding the enormous complexity of the pain experience and how all facets of an evaluation and treatment encounter can have effects on a person's experience, ranging from subtle to enormous. Thank you Diane!
