This new, expanded and thoroughly updated edition of Handbook of ICU Therapy builds on the success of the first edition and continues to provide concise information on a broad spectrum of issues relating to care of the critically ill patient. There are also several new, topical chapters. As with the first edition, it is equally applicable to anaesthetists, intensivists, operating department practitioners and anaesthetic/theatre/recovery nurses, and the heart of the book focuses on providing practical information in a readable and easily accessible format. All of the authors are directly involved in ICU practice and/or research and are familiar with the most recent developments in this fast-moving area of medicine.
Ian McConachie has been a consultant in anaesthesia and intensive care for over 15 years. Prior to this, he lectured extensively in anaesthesia and he is now a Primary Examiner for the Royal College of Anaesthetists.
