4 This handbook is dedicated to my wife Maria, my children, Theodore Thomas and Eleni Thalia, and my mother Eleni. I am grateful for your collective understanding of my professional commitment.
5 Preface Critical care medicine is a cutting-edge medical field that is highly evidence-based. Studies are continuously published that alter the approach to patient care. As a critical care clinician, I am aware of the tremendous commitment required to provide optimal evidence-based care. Pocket Guide to Critical Care Pharmacotherapy covers the most common ailments observed in adult critically-ill patients. I utilize an algorithmic, easy-to-follow, systematic approach. Additionally, I provide references and web links for many disease states, for clinicians who want to review the available literature in greater detail. The contents of this handbook should be utilized as a guide and in addition to sound clinical judgment. Consult full prescribing information and take into consideration each drug s pharmacokinetic profile, contraindications, warnings, precautions, adverse reactions, potential drug interactions, and monitoring parameters before use. Every effort was made to ensure the accuracy of Pocket Guide to Critical Care Pharmacotherapy. The author, editor, and publisher are not responsible for errors or omissions or for any consequences associated with the utilization of the contents of this handbook.
