Reading is easy. To the point. Helped overall understanding of patho physiology.

Very informative, without too much unnecessary details that could discourage the reader as deep internal medicine background is required. Also I like the good explanation and management of conditions encountered more frequently in ICU. In other words the writers know when to give more explanation and when to give a short one.

I am a pulmonary critical care physician and use this book often. I have the seventh edition and liked the way it was written. I am just started reading it but i feel that it is a detailed book with some added concepts and new chapters including more detailed discussion on ARDS, ECMO, multidisciplinary approach in critical care. I love the e BOOK that comes with the book and you have a lot of videos including very common ICU procedures. Love this resource. It is amazing. This is a must have for any physician with work related to the ICU including ciritical care physicians and other specialities like cardiology, nephrology, infectious disease etc. I highly recommend it.
