This book provides practical guidance for health professionals in the event of having to manage individual or mass chemical casualties as part of their work in a hospital or pre-hospital emergency service. The text considers the nature and basic science of the hazards faced as well as the practical management of persons exposed to chemicals and toxins.
Individual chapters cover the development and classification of chemical toxic agents, how exposure can occur and how medical responders should be involved in its management. There is also consideration of the nature of toxic trauma and the pathophysiological processes involved, together with a systematic approach to early and continuing management supported by specific examples of incidents. This guide will be a useful resource for consultants and registrars in emergency medicine, clinical toxicology, internal medicine, anaesthesia and intensive care as well as paramedical HAZMAT responders involved in both the management of mass chemical casualties and ensuring safe operating procedures within potentially contaminated areas to prevent secondary casualties from a chemical release.

“‘This book is helpful for someone who had no previous knowledge of toxic trauma. … This would be ideal for someone to understand the basic theoretical principles of toxic trauma. … The book provides an easy to read overview, which achieves this objective.’” (BMA Medical Book Awards, September, 2015)
“The purpose is to describe toxic hazards, their presentations, their consequences, and strategies to manage them. … the book is aimed at both those who are learning the basics of toxicology and those who are more seasoned practitioners of toxicology who are hoping to design or improve a system to recognize and respond to toxic threats. … This book excels as a reference for those interested in learning about and designing systems to better handle toxic trauma.” (Michael D. Zwank, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2014)
“Toxic Trauma is a welcome addition to the literature. … Although written for clinicians, the book contains chapters that should be read by administrators and other health care professionals to ensure they understand and can inform the public in a balanced manner about the logistic considerations, and widespread consequences across systems when an event does occur. Any health care library should consider this book an essential text.” (Michael Nurok, American Journal of Disaster Medicine, disastermedicinejournal.org, Vol. 9 (3), 2014)
