Description
Numerous references describe the initial treatment of the acutely poisoned patient; however, this new book is the first major critical
care toxicology resource that details patient care from hospital admission and treatment all the way through stabilization, monitoring,
and discharge. It presents practical, state-of-the-art treatment recommendations based on initial and subsequent presentation of symptoms,
and describes when it's safe to discharge the patient.
