The experience of active management of patients in the intensive
care unit of a busy district general hospital has convinced us of
the value of team work which, allied to enthusiasm and clinical
expertise, provides the recipe for success. It is in this spirit
that the present volume has been written and the authors are
grateful to their colleagues who have given advice. In some cases
this has been extended to the compilation of a special chapter and
we are indebted to Dr. Dathan, Dr. Layton and Dr. Rushman for their
contributions. In this book we have attempted to set down the
principles of intensive care as they concern the typical ~istrict
general hospital without specialist units or the back up of
research departments. In doing this we have tried to maintain
simplicity and to give practical advice. The book is not aimed at
the specialist in intensive care who can draw on his own extensive
experience, but rather at the junior doctor who takes his tum
working in the intensive care unit. In particular we have
considered the needs of those who require some information outside
the parent speciality. We are also aware than in many British
hospitals consultants assume a duty responsibility for patients in
intensive care units and we hope that the information in this
volume may be of some help to them. Trained nurses should also find
this book ofvalue.
