Summary
"Pharmacologic intervention is a cornerstone of paramedic treatment. Paramedic: Pharmacology Applications covers the relevant issues of pharmacology as they relate to the field practice of the paramedic. The text gives students a comprehensive understanding of the indications, contraindications, and side effects of medications, as well as insight into the pathophysiology and etiology of conditions requiring rapid pharmacologic intervention. Progressive case studies with critical thinking questions allow students to apply this knowledge to situations they will face in the field."--BOOK JACKET.
