Complete, clear, detailed April 11, 2008 I needed a comprehensive book which would explain the basics for my first time in the ICU (I am a medicine student) and that would be easy to carry around in my coat pocket. This is it. I love it.
Good for quick reference June 21, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This pocket-sized book provides a very concise reference for common conditions found in critical care, and their treatments. There are some effective diagrams that simplify some of the more complex concepts such as septic shock. However, the instuctions for 'management' of conditions, whilst brief and to-the-point, could do with more detail in places.Additionally, the book contains a large number of blank pages, supposedly for the reader to add their own notes. For a book costing 25, i would expect these pages to contain extra information! Nevertheless, a good source for quick reference.
