Ships Captain Medical Guide, 24th Edition
The Ship Captain’s Medical Guide is intended primarily for use on vessels where there is no medical professional, such as a doctor, on board. It provides assistance and direction for crew members
when it becomes necessary for them to assess and treat trauma and medical illness. Ships and fishing vessels which carry Category A or Category B stores are required also to carry a copy of the guide.
This new guide, the 24th edition, continues to keep pace with the rapid changes in best-practice medicine, medical technology and global communications. It also provides reference for medical
training courses, and a framework for crew members within which to think, when faced with unfamiliar medical problems at sea.

• flow charts to aid evaluation and treatment

life-threatening conditions
