The third edition of the best-selling Essential Guide to Acute Care is a comprehensive and up-to-date resource for healthcare professionals seeking knowledge in acute care. This essential guide has been extensively revised and updated to provide readers with the latest information on a wide range of topics, including oxygen guidelines, sepsis management, fluid balance and volume resuscitation, acute kidney injury, perioperative care, and much more.

Retaining the accessible style and comprehensive coverage that has made it a staple for those who care for acutely ill adults, the third edition offers a unique approach to the subject that focuses on understanding rather than merely listing facts and recipes.

Whether you are a medical student, newly graduated doctor, doctor training in medicine, surgery, anesthesia, or emergency medicine, advanced clinical practitioner, nurse, or allied health professional working in acute or critical care, or a teacher, this indispensable volume will provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to provide optimal care to your patients.
