Additionally the text addresses problems that can arise in the ICU, with sections on evaluating fever in the ICU; recognition and management of hypoperfusion states; diagnosis and management of barotraumas; recognition of catheter infection and more.

Each topic area/organ system includes a summary that outlines proper evaluation and functional and laboratory work-up.
