Description
Highly Commended

2005 BMA Medical Book Competition, Anaesthesia category



Written by a number of established experts in the medical toxicology field, this stand alone text is the first major work detailing the post emergency/treatment stage of acute poisoning.

This important text differs from other toxicology titles in its review of patient management, and provides a critical care emphasis unlike any other book available today. Critical Care Toxicology covers not only the general management of the critical poisoned patient but also reviews the toxic syndromes the patient may present.

Comprehensive coverage addresses the full range of conditions for anyone who must initially treat, stabilize, monitor, and discharge the acutely poisoned patient. Chapter format is designed to cover practical information with specific treatment recommendations.
