Monitoring the Critically Ill Patient is an invaluable,
accessible guide to caring for critically ill patients on the
general ward. Now fully updated and improved throughout, this
well-established and handy reference guide text assumes no prior

clinical skills and knowledge they need to confidently monitor
patients at risk, identify key priorities, and provide prompt and
effective care.
This new edition includes the following five new chapters:
* Monitoring the critically ill child
* Monitoring the critically ill pregnant patient
* Monitoring the patient with infection and related systemic
inflammatory response
