Publisher's Synopsis
An update to EPA's comprehensive manual for healthcare providers on toxicology, diagnosis, and treatment for patients with specific pesticide exposures is now available. The Recognition and Management of Pesticide Poisonings, 6th Edition provides clinicians with the tools to conduct environmental and occupational exposure screenings for patients with suspected pesticide-related illnesses or injuries, to report pesticide exposures to appropriate agencies, and provides access to the most up-to-date pesticide information and resources. "This publication provides valuable tools and recommendations of how to diagnosis and treat pesticide exposure," says MCN's Chief Medical Officer, Ed Zuroweste, MD. "This resource should be on the desk of every clinician in the country who provides primary care for migrant and seasonal farmworkers," Zuroweste says.
