Rezensionen

"The book is primarily for physicians and other staff members working in the intensive care setting, but will also be useful for other physicians, who visit the intensive care department to see patients and for anesthesiologists, who work closely together with intensive care therapists. As far as I know, this is the only book available that focuses solely on this topic ... . it is well written and deals with the topic in a clear and straightforward way." (Ann Merete Møller, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 131 (4), October, 2020)
