5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for resident on ICU rotation, November 10, 2007
I bought this book for an ICU rotation as intern and it has been remarkably useful. It is very concise yet useful in clinical application. For the busy intern or resident that doesn't have a lot of time for outside reading this the perfect companion. It also provides reference for source journal articles for further reading if interested. Overall, I am very happy I purchased this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Innecesario, July 28, 2008
By Héctor Parra Riffo (Santiago,Chile) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
El libro es casi una compilación de listas que abarcan diversos temas de los Cuidados Críticos. Los tópicos están tratados en forma superficial, no están bien actualizados y, por sobretodo, no puede competir en calidad y credibilidad con las fuentes electrónicas del conocimiento médico.
Me parece una obra por completo innecesaria en el siglo XXI. Le sugiero que no lo compre.
