Disasters, whether aircraft or train crashes, natural or terrorist, present special problems of immediate medical care, organization of team work and transportation that can be fully understood only through personal experience. In this book, those involved in the M1 plane crash, the Hillsborough football disaster, the Northern Ireland troubles and other accidents describe the scene and how it was managed. Chapters include: on-site triage; dealing with fatalities; management of bone, soft tissue crush asphyxia injuries, and burns; social and psychological effects on the survivors; and minimizing injuries for the future. This record of real experience should interest accident and emergency doctors, surgeons, paramedics and hospital managers.
