Full Description
This textbook is a comprehensive guide for intensivists and trainees for both exam preparation and as an aid to everyday decision making in the intensive care unit (ICU).
Presented as a selection of case- and scenario-based MCQs (multiple choice questions), the text provides extensive coverage of core topics such as ICU fundamentals, organ support therapies, sepsis, ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome), haemodynamic monitoring, neurocritical care, and many more.
Each MCQ is followed by a detailed explanation clarifying the correct answer and general misconceptions.
The second edition has been fully revised to provide clinicians with the latest advances and guidelines for practice. New topics have been added including ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) and sepsis biomarkers, with reference to key clinical trials.
Two model question papers are included for self-assessment.
