Das ABCDE-Schema der Patientensicherheit in der Notfallmedizin [PDF ebook] 
Pearls and Pitfalls aus interdisziplinärer Sicht

Numerous medical disciplines are involved in prehospital emergency care, and standardized care processes for different groups of patients are particularly important here. However, this assumes that these processes are also viewed from an interdisciplinary perspective. This book provides an overview of common and serious emergency medical clinical pictures from the point of view of the safety of the emergency patient, and identifies suggested solutions and typical sources of error in emergency situations. The structure is based on the ABCDE scheme familiar from trauma care, which provides instructions for action. Following this scheme (A & airways, B & breathing, C & circulation, D & disability and E & environment/exposure), the book features these five areas and highlights emergency medical situations and typical errors from a medicolegal perspective. The aim is to achieve greater patient safety. All of the authors are experienced experts in their respective fields of emergency medicine.
