"This is the first major textbook on the emerging specialty of remote healthcare. This started in the 1970s when the medical directors of the main oil companies then involved — BP, Shell and Mobil — sought help from the University sector. Together with Aberdeen University they developed a system of healthcare for the industry which brought down the mortality and morbidity levels to reduced levels. The system worked well and was validated by duplication for the different scientific populations of the British Antarctic Survey. Subsequently it was translated to the oilfields of the Middle East — Qatar (Offshore and Onshore), Abu Dhabi (ADMA and ADCO) and Oman (PDO) where its success was repeated. The Aberdeen Universities next collaborated with the UAE University in Abu Dhabi to evaluate telemedicine and achieved similar inroads in remote education and remote healthcare, particularly in both undergraduate and postgraduate transcontinental medical education. The various chapters in this book discuss the background to these conclusions together with practical aspects on the management of medical, surgical and psychiatric emergencies in remote places and the establishment of general practice and pharmaceutical services in remote locations. It also covers such areas as preparation for disasters, diving and hyperbaric medicine, environmental medicine: Heat and cold and basic travel medicine together with the special first aid approach for all these situations. Finally, it describes remote occupational medicine, show its distinction from the emerging specialty of remote medicine and how rig medics are now emerging as international remote healthcare practitioners with a career structure in both oil and gas industry and civilian community medicine."
