This
review covers all medical and surgical aspects of general critical
care from basic science to techniques in the intensive care unit.
Cases deal with anaesthesia, intensive care, trauma, general surgery
and post-operative management.
The
cases appear in random order, just as they would in practice, and
they challenge the reader to think through a problem and devise
a solution. Each problem is followed by a full explanation designed
to educate not just to test the reader. The book will appeal to
senior medical students and to critical/intensive care specialists
and surgeons in training.
