An up-to-date practical guide to the care of the critically ill
patient in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit
The Cardiac ICU Book fills a void in the medical literature, as most
books currently available on post-procedure cardiac care are out of date
and do not cover contemporary topics, approaches, and interventions. The
purpose of this book is to provide an authoritative and comprehensive
guide to the management of critically ill cardiac patients.
Offering the very latest evidence-based approaches, the author details a
multidisciplinary approach that mirrors today's real-world practice, and
covers the latest developments, technology, and procedures. The liberal
use of flow charts, algorithms, and tables makes the content as
accessible as possible, and case studies and illustrative examples give
the information real-world applicability.
