Description
The book is comprised of six main sections. The first section focuses on Cardiovascular Critical Care and includes five chapters. The second section concentrates on the endocrine system, gastrointestinal system and the liver. Four chapters make up this section. The third section deals with infectious diseases. The most important update to this section is the thirteenth chapter that deals with the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. The next section discusses neurocritical care and includes three chapters while the next section on pulmonary disorders contains two chapters. The last section is a miscellaneous section that includes seven chapters that don’t fit into one of the previous categories.
The chapters cover a wide variety of issues and medical conditions seen in the ICU, including sepsis and septic shock, venous thromboembolism, acute heart failure, anaphylaxis, arrhythmias, asthma and COPD exacerbations, pain, infections, pancreatitis and liver failure, stroke, and many more. Each chapter begins with a brief discussion of the disease state followed by drug tables that compare and contrast different treatment regimens, including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, drug interactions, contraindications, and hepatic/renal dosing. The book contains clinical pearls organized by the top disease states seen in the critical/acute care setting.
This text is a valuable resource for all ICU providers such as nurses, pharmacists, residents, and physicians alike.
