It offers reliable instructions even for those with little operational experience, such as venous access. The guide includes clear differential diagnosis tables for conditions like acute abdomen, unclear coma, and chest pain. It also covers less common rescue situations such as high-altitude rescue, chemical accidents, or terrorist attacks.
