The intensive and critical care unit is an arena that is ripe for problems and complications. This text discusses various problems such as mechanical ventilation, haemodynamic monitoring, lung infections, catheter infections, gastro-intestinal bleeding, liver failure and renal failure.
This comprehensive text on the medical complications that can occur in the intensive care unit instructs medical professionals on how to identify, prevent and treat these problems.



Some of the most pertinent modes of treatment and decision making techniques available in the intensive care unit are outlined in this accessible guide. Topics include airway management, mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic monitoring, renal failure, liver failure, nosocomial infections and neurological abnormalities. In addition, the book covers drugs and medication, nutrition and ethical issues relevant to the critical care setting. Abnormalities in all major medical systems are also featured throughout the text. In order to access information in a readily understandable format, a multitude of tables and figures have been provided.



A timely and unique piece of literature, this work provides practising critical care physicians and nurses, fellows and residents training for intensive care unit medicine, cardiologists, general surgeons and internists with the tools needed to reduce, recognize and treat complications in the intensive care unit.
