Handbook of ICU Therapy is a comprehensive guide to managing critically ill patients, edited by John Fuller and in its 3rd edition. This English-language publication from Cambridge University Press offers a practical approach to common issues faced in intensive care units (ICUs), providing essential background information for a clear understanding of the principles behind the therapies without overwhelming readers with detailed scientific data. The book has been fully updated, including new chapters on coagulation problems, airway management, electrolyte and metabolic acid/base disorders, optimizing antimicrobial therapy, chronic critical illness, recognizing and responding to deteriorating patients, ICU rehabilitation, palliative care, neurotrauma, the comatose patient, obstetric patients, endocrine issues, and organ donor care. Authored by senior clinicians from both sides of the Atlantic, it maintains an easy-to-read format that has made previous editions popular. Aimed at residents and trainees beginning their work in ICUs or preparing for postgraduate examinations, this handbook is also a valuable resource for established intensivists, anesthesiologists, and surgeons looking to refresh their knowledge.
