The guide addresses issues such as recognizing and responding to shock, bleeding, severe allergic reactions, dehydration, diabetes and low blood sugar, heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and hypothermia or low body temperature. Ideal for students, this reference can be used before, during, and after first aid training courses.
