Re: altitude physiology relating to patient care

["SAR DOC" <sardoc8401@hotmail.com>]

I'm no expert but, I believe there is some good info on this subject in the 
"Flight Nursing, Principles and Practice Book". It is commonly referred to 
as the "Bible of AMT". I have also seen some great articles in "Air Medical 
Transport Magazine". Maybe you could get some back articles.

Good Luck'
