Completely revised skills stations based on unfolding scenarios
Emphasis on the trauma team, including a new Teamwork section at the end of each chapter and a new appendix focusing on Team Resource Management in ATLS
Expanded Pitfalls features in each chapter to identify correlating preventive measures meant to avoid the pitfalls
Additional skills in local hemorrhage control, including wound packing and tourniquet application
Addition of the new Glasgow Coma Scale
An update of terminology regarding spinal immobilization to emphasize restriction of spinal motion
Many new photographs and medical illustrations, as well as updated management algorithms, throughout the manual
The course continues to make use of the MyATLS mobile application. The app is full of useful reference content for retrieval at the hospital bedside and for review at your leisure. Content includes:
Interactive visuals, including treatment algorithms and x-ray identification
Just in time video segments capturing key skills
Calculators, including a pediatric burn calculator to determine fluid administration
