Review :
"The purpose is to provide information for any nurses caring for patients in the ICU setting. ... This book is informative and timely. I loved the various monitoring methods and assessment strategies. The diagrams and pictures are very well done. The authors discuss a variety of areas, not just the cardiac and respiratory system, but also the eye ... positioning. This is a very well rounded and informative book that would be a great asset for any new ICU nurse." (Cynthia Cummings, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2018)
