Review of previous edition: '... the book focuses on the current state of evidence-based practice ... provides a practical, concise reference for the trainee in critical care medicine.' Anesthesia and Analgesia Review of previous edition: '... the book provides a broad discussion of the basics of ICU care, including excellent review chapters ... Its most distinguishing features are detailed chapters about specific patient populations encountered in the ICU ... it fills a niche for readers who do not want to delve into a full textbook of critical care but prefer more detail than the average ready reference.' Respiratory Care 'For anyone starting in ICU this will be a useful primer. It will guide them through the rationale behind many ICU practices and provide helpful pointers for how to manage everyday emergency admissions. But don't be quick to dismiss it ... it's a good book to have around, especially when called upon to give practice vivas.' M.
