Medicine at the Extreme 1.4

Mayo Clinic Doctors Unveil In-Depth Medical Insights in this Exclusive Book App!

The app aims to provide practical, evidence-based, multi-specialty medical knowledge to medical professionals and individuals interested in adventure activities or seeking information relevant to their travels. It offers useful information in a dynamic, affordable, hand-held app format that can benefit both travelers and adventurers in planning and during their journeys. The content is a collaborative effort, with contributions from various practitioners who share their expertise, passion, and wisdom for the readers' benefit.

We express our gratitude to the copy editors from Mayo Scientific Publications (Alissa Baumgartner, John Hedlund, Angie Herron, and Ann Ihrke) and Kenna Atherton, Manager- Scientific Publications, for their expert contributions. We also acknowledge the artistic work by Tom Bibby and Marvin Ruona from our media support services group. Our editorial team appreciates the support received from colleagues, friends, and families during the project development period.

The availability of portable electronic devices that can effectively present video, text, and image content has inspired us to compile comprehensive information in this work. The app covers areas such as Wilderness Medicine, Aerospace Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, Survival concepts, Psychology, and various clinical specialty areas in civilian and military contexts. We hope this reference will be a valuable resource for providers and the public in demanding situations.

The app will receive regular updates with additional content based on user feedback. It is divided into three main sections with standard chapters and includes a keyword search feature for easy information retrieval.

We welcome user feedback to enhance the content continually and cater better to our readers' needs. Our goal is to deliver essential information where it is most needed, aligning with the primary value of the Mayo Clinic:

"The needs of the patient come first"
William H. Mayo
