Series Editors

Maurizio Cecconi is Head of Department Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Units, IRCCS Istituto Clinico Humanitas, Rozzano (MI), Italy and Professor of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Humanitas University, Pieve Emanuele (MI), Italy. His main fields of research are haemodynamic monitoring, haemodynamic optimisation and physiology of the critically ill patient. He has published extensively and has specific interest in haemodynamic monitoring and fluid management of the critically ill.

Daniel De Backer is Professor of Intensive Care at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium Head of Intensive Care Departments of CHIREC Hospitals (Brussels and Braine l'Alleud-Waterloo). His main fields of investigation are severe sepsis, organ dysfunction, acute circulatory failure and its treatment (in particular vasoactive agents), haemodynamic monitoring, hepato-splanchnic circulation and microcirculatory disorders.

Volume Editors Michael R. Pinsky has published >300 peer-reviewed papers, >250 chapters, and 24 volumes. In the Department of Critical Care Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, he is the program director for Adult Critical Care Medicine T32 research training program, Director of the Cardiopulmonary Research Laboratory, Editor-in-Chief of WebMD's Critical Care Medicine and on numerous editorial boards. His research on heart lung interactions and resuscitation physiology has brought major advances in the management of critically ill patients.

"It belongs on the bookshelf of medical students, residents, nurses, intensivists, and anesthesiologists. ... This content-rich, easy-to-read book is definitely worth the investment of money and time. ... I would dare to say that the book delivers much more than its title suggests." (Getúlio R. de Oliveira Filho, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 129 (5), November, 2019)
"This multiauthored book describes not only hemodynamic monitoring, but also cardiopulmonary physiology and therapy for common circulatory problems seen in patients in the intensive care unit. ... Postgraduate trainees and senior providers seeking a sophisticated review of cardiovascular care are an appropriate audience." (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, July 26, 2019)
