Sur le terrain, les secondes comptent. PHTLS: Soins de réanimation préhospitaliers enseigne et renforce les principes d'évaluation rapide d'un patient en état de traumatisme en utilisant une approche ordonnée, en traitant immédiatement les problèmes potentiellement mortels au fur et à mesure qu'ils sont identifiés, et en réduisant tout retard de transport vers la destination appropriée. Développé par la National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT ou Association nationale des techniciens médicaux d'urgence) en coopération avec le American College of Surgeons Committee (ASC-COT ou Collège américain du Comité des chirurgiens), PHTLS, Neuvième édition reprend les connaissances et la pratique actuelles étayées par des données, et encourage la pensée critique en tant que fondement de la fourniture de soins de qualité. Évaluer rapidement un patient en état de traumatisme pour identifier les soins vitaux est au cœur de la neuvième édition de PHTLS. Il faut 2 minutes ou moins à un patient pour se vider de son sang. Aucune autre intervention des prestataires de soins préhospitaliers n’est plus importante que l’arrêt de l’hémorragie chez les patients en état de traumatisme. Pour refléter cela, PHTLS, Neuvième édition utilise le moyen mnémonique d’évaluation du patient XABCDE pour placer une hémorragie au premier plan de chaque contact avec un patient. L'importance de la méthode XABCDE (en français hémorragie, voies aériennes, respiration, circulation, handicap et exposition/environnement) est renforcée dans chaque chapitre clinique. PHTLS, Neuvième édition présente : Les informations actuelles sur la réanimation liquidienne et l'immobilisation de la colonne vertébrale provenant de la recherche factuelle et de prestataires de soins préhospitaliers expérimentés qui appliquent les principes et les pratiques de PHTLS sur le terrain Les dernières techniques de gestion des patients, y compris la mise en place d’un garrot, les sites de décompression par aiguille, l'utilisation de liants pelviens, la réanimation pédiatrique liquidienne et la gestion pédiatrique des voies respiratoires L'accent est mis sur les blessures évitables, de la distraction au volant aux chutes chez les personnes âgées, en passant par la violence conjugale L'accent est également mis sur les menaces et les interventions tactiques des civils, des véhicules utilisés comme armes de destruction massive à un nouvel organigramme de la méthodologie d'évaluation à distance Composants dynamiques du programme Le manuel principal de PHTLS, Neuvième édition est la ressource définitive en matière de traumatologie. Il présente en détail les preuves médicales sous-tendant les principes et pratiques recommandés dans le cours PHTLS. La prochaine étape de l'évolution du programme PHTLS sera un nouveau manuel de cours PHTLS qui accompagnera le manuel principal. Il renforce et clarifie les concepts clés du cours, a une présentation agréable et interactive et est rédigé de façon à ce que vous ayez l'impression de participer à une conversation, plutôt qu’à un cours magistral.

On the battlefield, seconds count. PHTLS: Prehospital Trauma Life Support, Military Ninth Edition teaches and reinforces the principles of rapidly assessing a trauma patient using an orderly approach, immediately treating life-threatening problems as they are identified, and minimizing any delays in initiating transport to an appropriate destination. Developed by the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT) in cooperation with the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma (ASC-COT), PHTLS, the Military Ninth Edition reflects current, evidence-based knowledge and practice, and promotes critical-thinking as the foundation for providing quality care. Since 1996, Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) has improved the care rendered in combat prehospital environments. TCCC is the battlefield prehospital component of the Joint Trauma System, an organization within the Department of Defense that projects combat trauma care out to the point of injury and continues that care seamlessly while bringing the casualty home for recuperation and rehabilitation. TCCC guidelines are continuously revised and updated by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (Co-TCCC), an all-volunteer group of military medicine and trauma care specialists. The membership of Co-TECC includes combat medics, corpsmen, and pararescuemen as well as physicians and physician assistants. PHTLS: Prehospital Trauma Life Support, Military Ninth Edition is the next step in the evolution of the premier global prehospital trauma education program, a partnership between PHTLS and TCCC that goes back to the fourth edition of this manual. Military Ninth Edition continues the shared mission to promote excellence in trauma care by all providers and in all environments. In addition to the PHTLS core content, it features thirteen chapters written by military prehospital trauma care experts for practitioners in the military environment. Military Ninth Edition includes: Scenario – An opening case study that presents the key concepts of the chapter in a realistic patient or casualty care situation that encourages the participant to ask, “What would I do?” Key Terms – All key terms that appear in the Glossary are highlighted within the chapters. Engaging Art Program – The Military Ninth Edition features photos and illustrations that depict the realities of battlefield prehospital care. Summary – A list of the key concepts of the chapter. Scenario Solution – A discussion on how the patient or casualty in the opening scenario is assessed and treated in the field or on the battlefield and during transport.
