From the Author
Our book Pocket ICU is intended to be a quick reference guide for all practitioners of critical care medicine (medical students, residents, nurses and ICU physicians of all sub-specialties). We recruited some of the best minds (clinicians and researchers) to create the most up-to-date and concise version of critical care guide. The structure of this book was significantly altered for the second edition to help the readers find the right content in an instant. This also facilitates its use in an electronic version.We cannot wait to hear your feedback to help us further improve the presentation of the most current knowledge of intensive care.
