This is a great critical care/ICU text. It has enough information that you feel like you are well informed without having to spend hours sifting though page after page to get what you need. It also has quick reference flowcharts that work out very well. I am an ICU PA and prefer this to the "ICU book" as it has color charts and does not get into as much detail as the "ICU book". That and the price is very reasonable, make this a great book for any personal medical library.

Although the content is quite satisfactory, there are two major reasons I can't recommend this bound version of "The Washington Manual of Critical Care":
1.) As "The Manual" is primarily directed at the Critical Care fellow who as a resident before and as a fellow now probably will continue to underline or high light certain sections of the text and make notes in "The Manual" itself, this was very easy with the Spiral bound version but is much more difficult with the bound version now.
2.) I never liked algorithms and this bound version is loaded with them. I am of the opinion that algorithms -like hospital protocols- prevent physicians from thinking about a problem and how to approach it. To learn an algorithm by heart does not further understanding of the problem itself and may even harm ICU patients.
Therefore I will continue to recommend, as I have for the last 20 years, "Critical Care Medicine - The Essentials" by Marini & Wheeler to all who are interested in Critical Care Medicine.
