Providing evidence-based, practical guidance on the full spectrum of adult critical care, Parrillo and Dellinger's Critical Care Medicine: Principles of Diagnosis and Management in the Adult, 6th Edition, brings you fully up to date with the latest advances in the field. Grounded in the principle that critical care is defined by the level of care delivered-not the location in which it occurs-this text is written for all clinicians who care for critically ill patients. Designed for those managing critically ill and injured patients across disciplines, care environments, and resource-variable settings, it provides practical, evidence-based guidance for real-world practice.
