On<br \/>\na daily basis, the practicing intensivist must integrate knowledge and<br \/>\npractices from many medical specialties (surgery, transplant<br \/>\nmedicine, cardiology, pulmonary medicine, neurology,<br \/>\nanesthesiology, pain medicine, and many others) and collaborate<br \/>\nclosely with medical professionals from many specialties (physicians,<br \/>\nnurses, physiotherapists, respiratory therapists, nutritionists,<br \/>\npharmacists, etc.). Today\u2019s critical care toolbox, thus, must include<br \/>\nnot only the most up-to-date clinical knowledge but also<br \/>\ncommunication, team building, and management skills.<br \/>\nSince its inception in the 1950s polio era, critical care has<br \/>\nevolved into its own discipline with specialized caregivers, equipment<br \/>\nand clinical training, specific research topics, and an ability to care<br \/>\nfor ever sicker patients. Due, in part, to the development of<br \/>\nworldwide critical care research networks, a robust evidence base<br \/>\nnow exists to inform critical care practice and has allowed<br \/>\nintensivists to optimize the management of conditions common to<br \/>\nintensive care patients. Insights from this evidence base have<br \/>\nconsiderably improved survival from acute respiratory distress<br \/>\nsyndrome (ARDS) and sepsis and advanced the development of<br \/>\nsubspecialty intensive care units (ICUs; medical and surgical ICUs,<br \/>\ntrauma, burn, transplant, neurologic, and cardiac ICUs among<br \/>\nothers). In 2023, modern critical care not only involves<br \/>\ntechnologically advanced life support and therapeutic strategies for<br \/>\nacute illness but also focuses on longer-term quality of life and<br \/>\noutcome measures well beyond the ICU stay. The recent COVID<br \/>\npandemic has further highlighted the importance of critical care and<br \/>\nserved as an additional catalyst for investigation and discovery.<br \/>\nOur goal in this book is to organize this extensive body of<br \/>\nknowledge for our readers in an easy-to-view format. This<br \/>\nsignificantly updated and reorganized third edition is intended to<br \/>\nprovide concise, evidence-based information for all critical (intensive)<br \/>\ncare professionals, from students who are having their first<br \/>\nencounter with ICUs and critically ill patients to clinicians seeking a<br \/>\nquick update on topics they may not have encountered recently. The<br \/>\n50 chapters span the depth and breadth of acute care and, in<br \/>\naddition to basic critical care topics, include sections on bioweapons,<br \/>\ndisaster preparedness, and COVID. To cover this wide diversity of<br \/>\ntopics we solicited contributions from leading critical care experts,<br \/>\nincorporated recent evidence, improved the table of contents, and<br \/>\ncompiled an index of particularly relevant topics for quick access. For<br \/>\nreaders interested in the source data, we have included PubMed<br \/>\nindexing for easy reference. We are grateful for our authors\u2019 clinical<br \/>\ninsights and for sharing their many years of experience.<br \/>\nThe rewards of providing care for the most critically ill are great.<br \/>\nWith this book, we invite all of you for a great and satisfying<br \/>\nprofessional journey.
