ATLS ® Student Course Manual, 10th Edition

ATLS ® Student Course Manual, 10th Edition 17T-0004

The 10th edition of the Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) Student Course Manual reflects several changes designed to enhance the educational content and visual presentation of the prior edition.

Each chapter was rewritten and revised to ensure clear coverage of the most up-to-date scientific content, including updated references. New to the 10th edition are:

• Completely revised skills stations based on unfolding scenarios
• Emphasis on the trauma team, including a new Teamwork section at the end of each chapter and a new appendix focusing on Team Resource Management in ATLS
• Expanded Pitfalls features in each chapter to identify correlating preventive measures meant to avoid the pitfalls
• Additional skills in local hemorrhage control, including wound packing and tourniquet application
• Addition of the new Glasgow Coma Scale
• An update of terminology regarding spinal immobilization to emphasize restriction of spinal motion
• Many new photographs and medical illustrations, as well as updated management algorithms, throughout the manual

The course continues to make use of the MyATLS mobile application. The app is full of useful reference content for retrieval at the hospital bedside and for review at your leisure. Content includes:

• Interactive visuals, including treatment algorithms and x-ray identification
• Just in time video segments capturing key skills
• Calculators, including a pediatric burn calculator to determine fluid administration
• Animations, including airway management and surgical cricothyroidotomy

Students, instructors, coordinators, and educators are encouraged to access and regularly use this important tool.

Purchased used. Arrived in Like New Condition. ATLS app had not been activated by previous owner so I was able download and sign in on my iPad. Lots of material. Numerous references at the end of chapters for additional study. Bright readable text with pleasing layout.
I'm a registered nurse who wishes to pass the ATLS exam and get the certification, its needed for a position I want to apply to next year. I'm finding that ATLS courses usually have long waiting lists to attend especially if the course is at another institution than your own. The manuals are usually not sent out until a few weeks be fore the course. I wanted to have longer to prepare. There is a new text provided with the course and I will sell it online after the course.

My kids dig the gross pictures.
Wonderful book regarding trauma care. Well organized, easy to use as a quick reference, and I love the app that comes with it as a download. Kudos.

This book arrived used, but in good condition as described by the seller. Overall, the book is a good resource for trauma. I am a Nurse, in an Emergency Nurse Practitioner program. The book is a great resource for providers working in a trauma setting.

ATLS® is a global course, teaching a systematic process of trauma care for patients with life-threatening injuries.

Throughout this two-day interactive course, you will learn a range of comprehensive and adaptable trauma management skills relevant to all specialties.

The RCS is the only provider of ATLS in the UK, teaching a safe and reliable method of immediate management of severely injured patients. The ATLS programme has been adopted in over 80 countries around the world.

The format of this hybrid course includes a state-of-the-art and interactive eLearning tool which will enhance your learning experience and reduce the number of days attending the practical sessions from three to two. The pre-course eLearning is a mandatory requirement for this course. 

The pre-course eLearning consists of an Overview chapter, ATLS student course manual, 13 modules and quizzes, pre and post module MCQs and it takes approximately 1-2 hrs to complete each module. Full completion of the pre-course learning is a mandatory requirement to attend the course. Delegates who have not completed the eLearning in full by 7am on the day before the course will not be allowed to participate in the course and will forfeit their course fee. Course participants are also required to read the ATLS course manual in full to prepare for the assessments on the course.

Our priority is to provide training for doctors working for the NHS. Due to demand and limited availability we do not accept applications from doctors working overseas.

ATLS® is curriculum mandated training for many surgical specialties and therefore eligible for HEE study leave applications.
