EXPLOSION AND BLAST RELATED INJURIES EFFECTS OF EXPLOSION AND BLAST FROM MILITARY OPERATIONS AND AC

"EXPLOSION AND BLAST-RELATED INJURIES" IS AN AUTHORITATIVE TEXT THAT BRINGS TOGETHER DIVERSE KNOWLEDGE GAINED FROM BOTH THE EXPERIENCE OF CLINICIANS TREATING BLAST CASUALTIES AND THE INSIGHTS OF SCIENTISTS OBTAINED FROM RESEARCH AND MODELING OF BLAST EXPOSURES. BY PROVIDING INFORMATION ON EXPLOSION AND BLAST INJURY PATTERNS, AS WELL AS THE MECHANISM OF BLAST-INDUCED INJURIES, IT IS A USEFUL REFERENCE FOR BOTH PHYSICIANS AND RESEARCHERS. WITH CONTRIBUTIONS BY EXPERTS FROM AROUND THE GLOBE, THE BOOK COVERS TOPICS SUCH AS THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF BLAST AND EXPLOSION INJURY, PATHOLOGY AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, AND THE MODELING AND MECHANISM OF INJURY.FINALLY, THIS BOOK MIGHT STIMULATE ADDITIONAL STUDIES INTO WAYS TO IMPROVE OUR CURRENT MASS CASUALTY RESPONSE SYSTEMS. IT CONTAINS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM EXPERTS WHO HAD FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE DEALING WITH EXPLOSION AND BLAST INJURIES. IT PROVIDES A DIVERSE GLOBAL EXPERIENCE DERIVED FROM BOTH MILITARY OPERATIONS AND TERRORIST ATTACKS IN CIVILIAN SETTINGS FRO
