Two-dimensional echocardiography plays a crucial role in the ICU, helping differentiate shock types, guide vasopressor use, and support goal-directed cardiac management. Bedside echocardiographic assessments enable real-time, life-saving decisions.
This book serves as a practical tool for intensivists and intensive care residents in daily practice, prioritising simplicity and usability with concise, targeted content.
The text features step-by-step guides, algorithms, normal values, and essential concepts, all designed for quick reference during busy shifts. Unlike many traditional textbooks, this guide bridges the gap between theory and practice, distilling complex concepts into digestible, actionable steps.
Additionally, it integrates ultrasound with other ICU monitoring tools to provide a comprehensive approach to patient management.
The book also includes a QR code linking to short videos and additional resources for residents seeking more in-depth explanations or demonstrations.
