Steven M. Hollenberg – författare

In this issue of Critical Care Clinics, guest editors Drs. Steven Hollenberg and Jos� L. Diaz-Gomez bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Cardiovascular Intensive Care. Top experts cover key topics such as hemodynamic monitoring in the cardiac ICU; the role of ultrasound in the cardiac ICU; cardiogenic shock; management of patients after cardiac arrest; temporary mechanical circulatory support; and more.

Providing evidence-based, practical guidance on the full spectrum of adult critical care, Parrillo and Dellinger's Critical Care Medicine: Principles of Diagnosis and Management in the Adult, 6th Edition, brings you fully up to date with the latest advances in the field. Grounded in the principle that critical care is defined by the level of care delivered-not the location in which it occurs-this text is written for all clinicians who care for critically ill patients. Designed for those managing critically ill and injured patients across disciplines, care environments, and resource-variable settings, it provides practical, evidence-based guidance for real-world practice.

This timely and comprehensive review is the only book to focus on the importance of treating cardiogenic shock as a discrete condition, not merely a symptom of another disease. The editors and authors are esteemed clinicians and investigators who have furthered our knowledge of the evaluation and management of cardiogenic shock. Contributors to this book comprise an international group of multidisciplinary specialists with extensive expertise in various aspects of cardiogenic shock, who have balanced their knowledge of pathophysiology and cutting-edge therapeutic approaches with their experience and unique perspectives. Practical management strategies based on the latest data from randomised trials of treatment strategies - including SHOCK, SMASH, and TACTICS - are discussed. Detailed reviews of related therapies such as ventricular assist devices, as well as special problems such as right ventricular myocardial infarction and rhythm disturbances, are provided. The future of potential metabolic support of the myocardium is presented.
