Editorial Review:
This best-selling resource provides a general overview and basic information for all adult intensive care units. The material is presented in a brief and quick-access format which allows for topic and exam review. It provides enough detailed and specific information to address most all questions and problems that arise in the ICU. Emphasis on fundamental principles in the text should prove useful for patient care outside the ICU as well. New chapters in this edition include hyperthermia and hypothermia syndromes; infection control in the ICU; and severe airflow obstruction. Sections have been reorganized and consolidated when appropriate to reinforce concepts. Purchase of The ICU Book, Third Edition gives you free access to a Website featuring links from references to PubMed, updated regularly; and a directory of Websites handpicked by Dr. Marino.

Rating: - This is a great book
I highly recommend this book to medical students, interns and residents.
My ICU attending recommended it to me before the rotation and I thought that it was helpful, easy reading and explained common prodecures ( ie central lines).

Rating: - Absolutely fantastic!
Dr Marino has created a resource for all students, residents, and physicians wanting to better understand topics typically poorly understood, taught, or written about. Its a must as it will make you a better physician! Really!
Rating:  - Good but but outdated.
I used this for my 5 MICU month rotations. It was useful but a lot of the material is dated. Early Goal Directed Therapy is not in here and the pressor we use at our facility are not dicussed in great detail here. I actually found it more helpful for my cardiac critical care rotations.
