comprehensiveness, or currency of the content of this work.
This work is no substitute for individual patient assessment based upon
healthcare professionals’ examination of each patient and consideration
of, among other things, age, weight, gender, current or prior medical
conditions, medication history, laboratory data and other factors unique to
the patient. The publisher does not provide medical advice or guidance
and this work is merely a reference tool. Healthcare professionals, and

all medical judgments and for any resulting diagnosis and treatments.
Given continuous, rapid advances in medical science and health
information, independent professional verification of medical diagnoses,
indications, appropriate pharmaceutical selections and dosages, and
treatment options should be made and healthcare professionals should
consult a variety of sources. When prescribing medication, healthcare
professionals are advised to consult the product information sheet (the
manufacturer’s package insert) accompanying each drug to verify,
among other things, conditions of use, warnings and side effects and
identify any changes in dosage schedule or contraindications, particularly
if the medication to be administered is new, infrequently used or has a
narrow therapeutic range. To the maximum extent permitted under
applicable law, no responsibility is assumed by the publisher for any

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Practicing medicine is like having a front row seat at the play of life. If that
is true, and I believe it is, emergency medicine is like being back stage.
This book is for the dedicated men and women who are often back stage
making life and death decisions without a net knowing that the
expectation is that they get it right the first time, every time, without
blinking.
Siobhan, Jake, Gaby, Finn, for whom I exist, thank you for tolerating
my passion of academic medicine.

To all those from whom I continue to gain wisdom—my teachers, my
colleagues, my students, and perhaps foremost, my patients. And to
Devorah, Harry, Jake, and Judah, whose support means the world to me.
