A practical, application-based primer on mechanical ventilation Essentials of Mechanical Ventilation, 3e covers the basics of ventilation management and clinical decision-making for physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists working in critical care medicine, pulmonary medicine, and anesthesiology. Designed to prepare students to make appropriate decisions based on each patient's disease, the book includes disease-specific chapters on the most common ailments seen by healthcare practitioners. The two authors are recognized as the foremost authorities on mechanical ventilation among respiratory therapists, and have outstanding clinical and scientific experience. Better than competing books, this text is devoted to the principles and practice of clinical management. - NEW 2-color design will appeal to students - The field's premier textbook Hess, Dean R., PhD RRT (Assistant Professor of Anaesthesia, Harvard Medical School, USA) / Kacmarek, Robert M.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
