PY - 2016 T2 - Cooney's EMS Medicine AB - EMS providers often encounter patients who have become victims of environmental emergencies. Even in urban areas, patients may suffer from heat- or cold-related illnesses. In more remote areas, altitude illness, undersea illness, and decompression sickness may be encountered.
