In addition to a thorough update based on the most recent recommendations, this second edition contains six new chapters:
- Emergency Health Services (EMS and other first responders)
- Burn Assessment and Management
- Explosive & Traumatic Terrorism
- Caring for High-Risk, High-Vulnerability Patients
