NOT a First-Aid Manual. *by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2013* This field guide has a lot of information in it. As an EMT-B trying to get my EMT-I and EMT-Paramedic later on, this field guide is a good reference or just as study material if you have a free hour or so.The pages are very thin, but they are not paper, but a synthetic paper/plastic material that should not rip very easily. It actually stretches if you try and tear it. The other thing is that this kit IS "water-proof/resistant" and alcohol fast, meaning the ink will not run if you spill alcohol on it, great for all of you frat party EMTs (or those of you who use Isopropyl alcohol on the job).The information lines up with current EMS guidelines, I believe it was revised in 2011, which is recently enough. As for the toxicology section, I would like to see a bit more chemicals to reference. The other complaint about this book is that the CPR section will on occasion advise you to perform CPR on patients who should have a pulse. I'm not sure why, but remember this guide is NOT your standard of training, the curriculum and textbook are. This guide is only a reference to inform and guide you in remembering your training.The main purpose of this guide is to get a little heads-up for the less common EMS occurrences, like poisonings and stuff like that. So its more of a consultation than a first-aid guide in itself. That said, it does do a very thorough job of covering all of EMS spectrum including non-medical scenarios like ambulance operations and hazmat.Like I said, though, this is NOT a first-aid guide, it's an EMT reference. It would be very very difficult to 'decode' for the non-EMS trained personnel, so don't think you can toss this into your first aid kit in the car and be all set. It doesn't cover the basic care of first aid patients at all, just special interventions and care for certain situations (for instance you won't find how to care for a scrape or cut, but you will find intubation recommendations for pre-term delivery infants with APGAR scores of less than 3). If you don't know what that means, go to a First Aid book, no this guide. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Hard Copy of the Smartphone App *by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2014* I love this reference guide! This is a perfect, discreet, way to reference vital, excuse the pun, information. This is basically your EMT class in a pocket guide. Everything we learned at school can be found here.There is also a smartphone app, kind of costly ($7), but it has calculators, diagrams, and other features that make it a great buy as well. I have both since I don't always have cell service at work, which is required to run the app. Having both is great. I would recommend this to all EMS workers. Everyone needs a cheat sheet once in a while, and this is the ultimate crib note. That is not to say you should rely on this for all of your patient care as this would be sloppy and a good sign you are a bad EMT, however it's no shame to forget something every now and them. Not using skills makes you dumb about them.This is NOT a first aid guide for basic first aid and CPR certified persons. This is is intended for medical professionals only and use of any technique in this guide outside of your scope can lead to criminal charges or more common, being sued by a patient. Again, this is for EMT certification and up! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars BLS Field Guide *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2014* This guide is perfect! It has all the information you could need at anytime. The size of the guide fits perfectly into any shirt, jacket or pant pocket or into any pouch or holster. This product arrived ahead of the scheduled delivery and was in perfect brand new condition. The pages are sturdy, clean and long lasting and will withstand any punishment a career in EMS can throw at it. The information is easily accessible and easy to read. The guide is laid out in a way that makes finding the information you need easy and fast. This guide is the perfect accessory to any EMT's field pack. I rate it at FIVE STARS and recommend this guide to everyone. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1581980-ems-field-guide-bls-version-paperback-june-30-2011](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1581980-ems-field-guide-bls-version-paperback-june-30-2011) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
