Developments in technology, the treatment of previously untreatable malignancies, complex surgery procedures, and an increasing age profile result in more patients vulnerable to infection and a greater number of patients needing critical care support.   Infections in the Adult Intensive Care Unit is designed to help trainee and practicising physician, surgeon or other medical professional manage the acutely ill patient in the critical care unit, before transfer from the emergency department, or on the hospital ward where effective management may avoid admission to the critical care unit. It has been co-authored by a clinical microbiologist, intensivist and clinical infectious diseases physician to cover some of the major infections presenting in the adult critical care unit.  It provides broad principles to be used based on the latest evidence combined with common sense and the results of many years of combined experience. 606 $aCritical care medicine 606 $aInfectious diseases 606 $aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3100X 606 $aInfectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096 615 0$aCritical care medicine. 615 0$aInfectious diseases. 615 14$aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine. 615 24$aInfectious Diseases. 676 $a616.028 700 $aHumphreys$b Hilary$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0999202 702 $aWinter$b Bob$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aPaul$b Mical$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437993903321 996 $aInfections in the Adult Intensive Care Unit$92292473 997 $aUNINA
