Integrating Critical Care Skills into Your Practice: A Case Workbook

Back

Beginning with an overview of critical care medicine, this workbook uses examples of patient cases that build throughout several chapters to illustrate skill applications described in the text. This first set of cases focuses on development of comprehensive patient-specific problem lists. The next group of cases covers maintaining and updating the patient-specific database. All the cases highlight additional questions and considerations to enhance the quality of care provided to the patients on service. At the conclusion of this casebook the reader will be able to outline an approach required for patient-specific management.
