Essential Guide to Acute Care (2003) Nicola Cooper

Description

This book is aimed at trainees in internal medicine, surgery, anaesthesia, intensive care, and emergency medicine. It teaches doctors how to deal logically with patients in physiological decline, focusing on generic altered physiology rather than a traditional ‘recipe’ format. It includes mini-tutorials, case histories, and problem-solving exercises covering topics such as oxygen, acid-base balance, circulatory failure, and sepsis.
