"This is a matter of life and death. Tactical Medicine is emergency first aid.

""Tactical Medicine"" is an umbrella term for medicine outside the typical comfort zone. ""Tactical Combat Casualty Care"" (TCCC) is about caring for the wounded under very special circumstances, while deployed and under fire.

The principles and procedures of Tactical Medicine also apply in situations where regular rescue services won't work or aren't available.

With this book, Carsten Dombrowski, himself an experienced medic, clarifies standard operating procedures and helps the reader to understand TCCC principles more easily. By understanding and applying these basics, the reader can and should be able to deal with many possible applications of Tactical Medicine in the field.

Topics include:

- TCCC Theory and Statistics

- Schemes for Examination, First Aid, Reporting, Rescue, and Evacuation

- How to Set Up a Helicopter Landing Zone

- Handling of Knockoff and Counterfeit Products

- Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK)"
