Skyscape Releases New Medical Titles

By PDAStreet.com staff
February 9, 2004

Mobile software provider Skyscape has introduced six new PDA references for emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and other first responders.

The titles from Pearson Prentice Hall and Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins are designed to provide information for emergency medical personnel in a wide variety of situations, including communicable disease treatment guidelines and terrorism response. Skyscape said group licensing is available for HAZMAT/DMAT teams and homeland security personnel.

The new Skyscape-powered references are:

Communicable Diseases and Infection Control for EMS: This handheld resource provides information on bloodborne and airborne illnesses that may be encountered on the job, and details the personal protective measures that can be taken to avoid infection;

Pocket Reference for EMTs and Paramedics, 2nd Edition: This reference provides easy access to the vital emergency information needed by pre-hospital personnel;

Pocket Emergency Medicine for PDA: Users can quickly search an alphabetical list of 57 chief complaints or a listing of head-to-toe traumatic injuries, pediatric emergencies, or environmental exposures and get history, typical findings, critical studies, and ED interventions;

Pocket Reference for the EMT-B and First Responder, 2nd Edition: Written specifically for EMT-Bs and First Responders, this software complements all Brady First Responder and EMT-Basic references, and includes skills sequences taken from Brady's best-seller, Emergency Care Student Workbook 9/E.

Terrorism Response: Field Guide for Fire & EMS Organizations: This includes information on chemical, biological, and radiological terrorism, explosives, cyber-terrorism as well as response procedures and decontamination.

Weapons of Mass Destruction: Emergency Care: Written by EMS providers for EMS providers, this is a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of a rapidly emerging field.

References are available at Skyscape.com. Homeland security personnel and state HAZMAT and DMAT teams should contact Skyscape at homeland@skyscape.com for purchasing options.
