Critical Care Study Guide: Text And Review Available To Downloads
Critical care medicine is a dynamic and exciting arena where complex pathophysiologic states require extensive knowledge and up-to-date clinical information. An extensive kno- edge of basic pathophysiology, as well as awareness of the appropriate diagnostic tests and treatments that are used to optimize care in the critically ill is essential. Since our frst edition 7 years ago, new information crucial to the care and understanding of the critically ill patient has rapidly accumulated. Because this knowledge base crosses many different disciplines, a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach presenting the information is essential, similar to the multidisciplinary approach that is used to care for the critically ill patient. We have strived to provide this content in an easily digestible format that uses a variety of teaching tools to facilitate understanding of the presented concepts and to enhance information retention. To meet the demand to provide comprehensive and diverse education in order to und- stand the pathogenesis and optimum care of a variety of critical illnesses, we have subst- tially revised the prior topics in the frst edition with updated information. We have also markedly expanded the number of topics covered to include acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, an expanded discussion of the physiology and operation of mechanical ventilation, obstetrical care in the ICU, neurosurgical emergencies, acute co- nary syndromes, cardiac arrhythmias, role of whole body rehabilitation in the ICU, ethical conduct of human research in the ICU, and nursing care of the ICU patient.

It's a good review book that goes fast. 5-6 questions at the end of each chapter. I passed my neurocritical care boards. It's not the only book I used, but it was great. And I would recommend for fellow or attendings who are studying now.
I passed! This is the only guide that I used to study for the Anesthesiology Critical Care Boards, and I passed. I felt like it prepared me pretty well. I only read it once.
This is a review for the kindle version of this book. The book is fairly good. A bit simplistic but covers the guts of the material. HOWEVER...the kindle format is mediocre at best. One can only highlight in one color. There is no table of contents so one can not easily find the chapters one wants easily.I do almost all my reading on an iPad and I find that the format of this book in the kindle is just fair.Overall - I like the book, don't care for the format and if I were to do it again I would purchase a physical copy of the book.
Detailed, does not miss anything. all topics are covered in detail and provide comprehensive review. easy to understand language and simple to follow line diagrams. i have read icu book and some portions of critical care essentials and find this book is easier to digest. it has over 1200 pages and that may be the downside although you can get through most of the material fairly quickly. is quite uptodate and does mention recent references. one reading with intent to understand should suffice. so far i have read 10 chapters and find it fairly consistent. great book and worth reading.
