This book provides comprehensive insights into the care of cancer patients in the intensive care unit. It provides an evidence-based approach to practitioners and postgraduate students to understand the critical care needs of patients suffering from malignancies. It helps the readers develop critical thinking and encourages discussion toward improving the overall care of the patients and their families. Their optimal management requires expertise in oncology, critical care, and palliative medicine, and there is a dearth of books explaining the unique requirements and essential needs of cancer patient care.
Each chapter is prepared by an expert in the field and contains well-prepared illustrations, flowcharts, and relevant images. Chapters also include the latest evidence-based information, which is helpful for readers.
The book is useful for residents, fellows and trainees in the field of onco-anaesthesia, onco-criticalcare, onco-surgery, critical care and anaesthesia; practitioners and consultants in anaesthesia and onco-anaesthesia as well as intensivist, critical care experts and postgraduates in nursing.
