Synopsis

This text deals comprehensively with the pathogenesis and treatment of organ failure, and offers up-to-date, accurate information that will serve the internal medicine specialist in critical care. Information is presented by an organ system approach representing the core of critical care, with a special emphasis on the underlying pathophysiology for each clinical syndrome or disorder. Includes state-of-the-art management guidelines for organ system failure management, with liberal use of illustrations demonstrating step-by-step technique. Ideal for in-depth review in preparation of the new board certifying exam. The authors are consulting editors to Critical Care Clinics. The book acts as a useful comprehensive reference and a handy guide for bedside care; the quality illustrations, figures and tables clarify concepts and help the reader assimilate data. Where controversies exist in diagnosis and/or management, the various approaches together with critiques of each are presented. The book doesn't stop at cardiopulmonary care - but covers a broad range of topics encompassing the renal system, the gastrointestinal system, the septic system, as well as infectious diseases, the nervous system, and haematology oncology. Special topics include pharmacology and patient positioning; plus an appendix of normal laboratory values, expressed in both conventional and SI units is included.
