ICU care of abdominal organ transplant patients / edited by Ali Al-Khafaji.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Pre- and post-operative care of transplant patients is an aspect of critical care medicine in which most ICU physicians and nurses have received little or no formal training and are left to cope with this complex population with only spotty incomplete'on-the-job experience' as a guide. In response to this clinical knowledge gap, this book provides a concise'at the bedside' resource for clinicians caring for abdominal organ transplant patients before and after surgery.
