The field of critical illness is an area of rapid change and development. All specialist clinicians need to keep abreast of these changes and revise and rethink their clinical practice constantly. This work provides a reference source for all specialists working with the critically ill. It should appeal to intensivists, anaesthetists, emergency medicine physicians, trainees and specialist nurses. The multidisciplinary nature of critical illness is reflected in the range of topics which includes paediatrics, cardiology, resuscitation and neuroscience.
