Immediate care or pre-hospital medicine has become a specialty in its own right as the Faculty of Pre-Hospital Medicine within the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, and is rapidly gaining much wider acceptance. A substantial literature has built up in this area over the past few years, especially around the fundamental topics of triage and resuscitation. This comprehensive text defines the specialty, with contributions from all the leading authorities in the field throughout the UK.
