About this book
This is a no-nonsense guide to drug treatment in the intensive care unit. It covers the most commonly encountered conditions and is organized by system. Management of each condition is tersely outlined step-by-step in table format. The book also includes non-drug information that is essential to making informed, evidence-based pharmacotherapy decisions, such as risk scores, scales, and assessment tools.
The Second Edition has been revised to reflect the latest critical care practice guidelines and up-to-date drug and non-drug information.
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“This is the second edition of a pocket-sized collection of data and treatment algorithms for organ-specific problems typically encountered in patients in the intensive care unit. The book highlights commonly encountered conditions with a focus on presentation and management, and tables summarize drug treatment strategies. Trainees needing a rapid reference and more experienced practitioners seeking a quick number or drug name are the intended audience.” (David J. Dries, Doody’s Book Reviews, March, 2015)
