First Aid Guides — Field Medicine References
First aid gear without training is half the kit. SRO's First Aid Guides collection covers the printed references — wilderness medicine handbooks, trauma response guides, hypothermia and hydration management — that turn first-aid gear into useful capability.
Subject coverage
Wilderness medicine. Trauma response (Stop the Bleed, TCCC principles). Hypothermia and cold-injury management. Hydration and electrolyte balance. Common environmental hazards. See Books & Guides for the broader title lineup and All First Aid for the gear side.
Authors who taught the material
Grant S. Lipman MD (Stanford wilderness medicine fellowship director). J. Wayne Fears (Outdoor Writers Hall of Fame). The reference titles are texts that survival schools and SAR teams actually use. Pair with Bleeding Control.
Pair every first aid kit you own with at least one printed reference — the kit is useless if you don't know how to use it. Read the references before you need them.
