Following on from the success of the first edition, published in mid-2007, this comprehensive textbook has been extensively revised and updated and will be published by the end of 2011. However, if you are going to the Bedside Critical Care conference’s inaugural Registrars’ day on the 26th September, you will be able to attend the official Australian launch and meet the authors (some of whom just happen to be contributors to this site). There will also be a launch of the book at the Annual Congress of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine being held in Berlin in the first week of October 2011, to reflect the fact that the book now covers all elements of the various ICU examinations in Europe. |

- Now extended to cover all elements of the various ICU examinations in Europe (i.e. DICM and EDIC) rather than just those for Australasia
- An accompanying DVD that contains hundreds of pages of additional information, photos, flow-man diagrams, interactive recall cases and a pharmacology quiz:
