“This is a welcome book that aims to address the way intensive care
medicine is practiced and the profound effects it can have on those
closest to the patient. … Families in the Intensive Care Unit can
and should be read by health care professionals at any stage in
their critical care career. This textbook is well written, and
appropriately to the subject matter, each chapter strikes a perfect
balance between being humanistic and technical.” (Alexander White
and Matteo Parotto, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 129 (3),
September, 2019)
“This is a unique and important contribution that should be
familiar to senior providers in critical care. As a
multidisciplinary reference, it also should be available to the
other disciplines working in the ICU. Failure to recognize the
principles this book describes places both our ICU patients and
their loved ones at risk.” (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews,
February, 2019)
