Irwin & Rippe's Intensive Care Medicine

Irwin & Rippe's Intensive Care Medicine

Thoroughly updated for its Sixth Edition, this classic reference remains an unsurpassed source of definitive, practical guidance on adult patient care in the ICU. It provides encyclopedic, multidisciplinary coverage of both medical and surgical intensive care and includes a 'how-to' atlas of procedures and a new section on noninvasive monitoring.

Each Sixth Edition chapter, for the first time, identifies Advances in Management based on randomized controlled clinical trials. The cardiology section has been completely rewritten to reflect advances in management of acute coronary syndromes. Also included are extensive updates on management of COPD, diabetes, oncologic emergencies, and overdoses and poisonings.

A companion Website will provide instant access to the complete and fully searchable online text.
