Description
In an easily accessible format, this new edition simply and comprehensively emphasizes the most relevant technical points and appropriate
clinical applications of monitoring techniques. Readers will gain a sound, fundamental understanding of the anatomy and physiology of
the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems. In addition, the text discusses important pathophysiologic, diagnostic, and management principles
for common cardiopulmonary diseases, emphasizing the individuality of patient responses. The means of early detection and appropriate
interventions of impending patient crisis are also discussed. With the information provided, readers will be able to correlate physical
findings, monitoring information and laboratory data with the goal of formulating an effective, individualized, and precise management
plan for high-risk perioperative, emergency, and ICU patients.
