TAILIEUCHUNG - BASIC SURVIVAL MEDICINE

The literature in book form is a veritable cornucopia of analytical information covering both basic and applied aspects of invertebrate pathology. Atlases and manuals are available that enable the identification of a wide range of insect pathogens. Some of these have also included a limited number of techniques to be used predominantly for preparing entomopathogens for isolation and identification. A large number of techniques for the isolation, identifi- cation, production and evaluation of insect pathogens are scattered throughout the literature. However, a single comprehensive manual of techniques in insect pathology has heretofore not been available. When confronted with the need to work on a new pathogen. | BASIC SURVIVAL MEDICINE Foremost among the many problems that can compromise a survivor s ability to return to safety are medical problems resulting from parachute descent and landing extreme climates ground combat evasion and illnesses contracted in captivity.

Other factors such as heat exposure cold exposure intense activity high altitude burns or illness can cause your body to lose more water. You must replace this water. Dehydration results from inadequate replacement of lost body fluids. It decreases your efficiency and if injured increases your susceptibility to severe shock.
