DESCRIPTION
NEW TO THE FOURTH EDITION
FEATURES
The Rogers textbook has been the gold standard in pediatric intensive
care through four editions. For this edition, it will be transformed into a
full color text, and it will continue its tradition of clearly explaining both
the principles underlying pediatric critical care disease and trauma and
how these principles are applied in clinical practice.
A fundamental and respected resource book in critical care, The ICU
Book, Fourth Edition, continues to provide the current and practical
guidance that have made it the best-selling text in critical care. The
text addresses both the medical and surgical aspects of critical care,
delivering the guidance needed to ensure sound, safe, and effective
treatment for patients in intensive care—regardless of the specialty
focus of the unit.
