Tactical Medicine. First Aid in Combat Conditions

Artyom Nikolayevich Katulin — doctor, candidate of medical sciences, veteran of combat operations. One of the ideologists and founders of tactical medicine in Russia. Founder of UCTM. Creator of authorial methods for teaching first aid and tactical medicine. Modern realities once again prove to us that possessing basic first aid skills is relevant and in demand regardless of your field of activity and hobbies. Unexpected situations pursue us every day — at home, at work, in school, in service, in any public place. And a highly qualified rescue specialist may not always be nearby. Do you want to become such a specialist on your own? In front of you is a book dedicated to the basic skills of providing first aid. With it, you will be able to: – not become a victim of emergencies; – gather an emergency suitcase; – provide assistance to the injured before the ambulance arrives, without wasting precious minutes; – gain theoretical knowledge in the field of tactical medicine in a simple and accessible form. Today, everyone should be able to provide first aid. They should not be afraid to take responsibility in one situation or another. According to statistics, 60% of the injured die from bleeding. If each of us can stop the bleeding with finger pressure, a tourniquet, or improvised means, we can save 60% of our comrades!
