Intensive care practice

This work provides expertise on all relevant topics in adult intensive care medicine. It strikes a balance between theory and practice: it explains a lot without overwhelming the reader. Clearly articulated, richly illustrated, and filled with many tips for daily work, it demonstrates what is essential in intensive care medicine through typical case examples. The book is aimed at all physicians working in intensive care units, including those from the fields of anesthesiology, surgery, internal medicine, neurosurgery, and neurology. It is ideal for preparing for the specialist examination and the additional qualification in "Intensive Care Medicine." It is also well-suited for further education in "Intensive Care" or "Critical Care." The content is aligned with the current guidelines of professional societies. The third edition is completely updated and expanded. New topics include the care of COVID-19 patients, antibiotic stewardship, ECLS, the new guidelines for resuscitation, and much more. Additionally, there are numerous videos in the ultrasound chapter.
