Abstract

Emergency management of the critical patient in some specific scenarios is a difficult job, not only related to the patient's condition but also to austere and hostile environments. Working as a medical provider in this arena, specific procedures, techniques and treatments must be reconsidered as per the most important factor, i.e. the presence and characteristics of a major threat over you.


Keywords: Critical patient, Emergency management, Hostile environments.
