Combine the rapid changes and critical care with the pressure to contain costs, and it’s easy to see why you need one authoritative resource to guide you to proven, efficient and practical clinical solutions.
That’s exactly what you’ll find in Critical Care Medicine: the Essentials, 2nd ed. It’s written by two experienced intensivists who draw heavily on their clinical knowledge to cover the problems you’re likely to see in critical care.
Almost every chapter is extensively revised, and new chapters cover important advances in:
•. Arrhythmias, Pacing and Cardioversion
•. Analgesia, Sedation, and Therapeutic Paralysis
•. General Supportive Care
•. ICU Utilization and Cost Control
•. Mechanical Ventilation
•. Oxygenation Failure
•. Ventilatory Failure
In addition, a new section covers surgical crisis to expand the scope of the text.
