Overview

Critical care of the surgical patient is a vital component of modern surgical practice. Today's surgeon must be aware of the principles of critical care in order to facilitate perioperative management, optimize outcomes and have meaningful discussions with intensivist colleagues. This book, written with close reference to the critical care curriculum of the Intercollegiate examination, provides a succinct summary of the key topics in the field. Written primarily as a guide to Higher Surgical Trainees, the book will also be useful to qualified surgeons and staff in High Dependency Units requiring a didactic overview of this area.
