Publisher's Synopsis
Surgical Critical Care has been co-authored by a surgeon and an anaesthetist, and encompasses all aspects of critical care that are important to surgeons, including indications, therapies, drugs, specific conditions and post-operative complications. Each chapter adopts a standardised format for ease of quick reference (classification, causes, pathophysiology, clinical, treatment, monitoring, complications and prognosis) and is illustrated with clear black and white photographs or original line drawings where appropriate.
