Review:
From the reviews:
"This sleek and modern-appearing paperback is a recent publication by Springer-Verlag, in the series Update in Intensive Care Medicine. ... Surviving Intensive Care has clear typography, high-quality paper, and a strong binding ... . The illustrations and tables ... are clear and generally informative. ... As a whole, Surviving Intensive Care is probably most of interest to clinical researchers interested in considering long-term outcomes as primary or secondary end points of observational or interventional research in the ICU." (Catherine Lee Hough, Respiratory Care, Vol. 50 (9), September, 2005)
