Neurointensive Care: A Clinical Guide to Patient Safety is aimed at physicians around the world caring for critically ill neurological patients either in the emergency department or intensive care unit, and may also be valuable for nurses working in these settings. Neurointensivists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, anesthesiologists, general intensivists, emergency physicians, and trainees dealing with neurological catastrophes will find this book of interest.

Rezensionen
"The purpose is to provide an overview of the interaction between care for the brain and optimal care for other organs where multiorgan dysfunction may be present in ICU patients. ... This is a remarkable contribution that balances the needs of critically injured organs outside the neurological system with the best brain care. ... the authors provide superb, high-level guidance to trained critical care providers or senior ICU trainees." (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, December, 2015)
